   MONDAY, Oct. 6, 2014 (HealthDay News) -- A researcher is reporting success in   
   a small study of reversing memory problems associated with early stage   
   Alzheimer's disease by using a complex program of lifestyle changes,   
   supplements and hormones.   
      
   Of the first 10 patients treated, nine reported improvements in memory within   
   three to six months, according to Dr. Dale Bredesen, a professor of neurology   
   at the University of California, Los Angeles, who developed the program.   
      
   The full regimen involves 36 components, and is tailored to the individual,   
   Bredesen said. In general, it involves diet changes such as eliminating simple   
   carbohydrates and processed foods; regular exercise; stress reduction; good   
   sleep habits;    
   supplements like fish oil, curcumin and vitamin D; and, in some cases, hormone   
   therapy.   
      
      
   Lifetime of Learning Might Thwart Dementia, Study Suggests   
   Writing in the September issue of the journal Aging, Bredesen describes the   
   cases of 10 patients undergoing the therapy -- half of whom were diagnosed   
   with mild mental (cognitive) impairment or early-stage Alzheimer's.   
      
   The others had more-advanced Alzheimer's or "subjective" cognitive impairment   
   -- where people have normal scores on tests of memory and thinking, but   
   complain of problems in daily life.
