Getting a grip on your memory - Brain Institute

Grip on Your Memory

This blood test is one of the components of the Grip on Your Memory program for people experiencing memory problems and cognitive impairment.
The goal is to gain insight into the processes that are disturbed and optimize them so that further deterioration can be prevented.
The Grip on Your Memory program results in 84% improvements in memory.

The protocol is based on more than three decades of (laboratory) research, which has resulted in hundreds of peer-reviewed publications that have uncovered the biochemical mechanisms behind the deterioration of memory associated with Alzheimer's disease.
This has opened a door to new revolutionary insights and treatments.

Over the past 30 years, numerous studies have shown that cognitive impairment and dementia are caused by a disruption in the brain's signaling. And this disruption is caused by a chemical imbalance in the body that has often been going on for years. Initially, the body is still able to repair or compensate for it, and in the process spare the memory. As we age and there is more and longer imbalance in body processes it affects the brain. The brain damages and shrinks resulting in memory problems and dementia.

The one size fits all treatments that focus only on the symptoms so far have not been successful. They only look at what goes wrong in one specific place, namely the brain.
But our program focuses on the origin of the chemical imbalance in the body that results in memory complaints. It looks at all the processes in the body that affect brain function, not just one component.
The goal is to change and optimize the biochemistry so that the brain can function properly again.

The lifestyle program is based on precision medicine. For each person, the results of examinations determine what is needed to improve the situation. And that can vary from person to person. Therefore, additional examinations may be recommended in addition to this one.

The following parameters are in the test:

• hs-CRP
• Homocysteine
• Hba1c
• Glutathione
• Thiamine
• Vitamin B6
• Vitamin B12
• Vitamin D3
• Vitamin E
• Folic acid
• Homa IR
• Copper
• Iodine
• Zinc
• Selenium
• Thyroid Values
• Omega 3 and 6
