This is really helpful for everyone to have a realistic view of what is possible in reversing cognitive decline. You can see that it is well worth pursuing the help of a ReCode practitioner.
Let’s be clear about the current best outcomes in preventing and reversing cognitive decline.
- Cognitive decline is reversible. Peer-reviewed studies confirm it. (See the research: https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.3233/JAD-215707)
- Gains can last for years—sometimes over a decade. This isn’t a short-term fix. It’s a new way forward. (See the evidence: https://www.mdpi.com/2227-9059/12/8/1776)
- In contrast, the “breakthrough” anti-amyloid antibody drugs do not improve cognition at all, they simply slow decline modestly, while exerting side effects that include brain hemorrhage, brain swelling, and death.
- We’re not just improving memory scores — we’re reversing the disease process. Brain scans show increased volume, improved blood flow, healthier brain waves, and better biomarkers. This is actually reducing pathophysiology, not simply boosting cognition.
- Not every case is successful, especially when treatment begins too late or the full protocol isn’t followed. But this is true of any medical intervention — from antibiotics to surgeries. That’s why early intervention is critical.
- Here’s the new reality: dementia is quickly becoming optional. With the right tools, no one needs to wait for symptoms to spiral. We now have the ability to detect risk early — and act in time to prevent cognitive decline altogether.
We recommend that everyone over 35 get screened and begin a prevention program.
This chart is what we typically see based on when treatment begins. This is not speculation. This is data-driven proof. This is hope grounded in science.
