From RA Towards Alzheimer's and Back To Health


Did you know that autoimmune disease and Alzheimer's are closely related? Rheumatoid arthritis, multiple sclerosis and lupus, among others, have very similar risk factors, and the things that send one person toward dementia can send another toward auto-immune disease. But you can reduce or eliminate the risks, and reverse early stages of all. Cheryl shares many more stories HERE.

From Stephan Neff, host of My Steps to Sobriety. Stephan is a fun, engaging host and it was a great pleasure to chat with him. If you know someone who is struggling with addiction, get his book. It is awesome! 

 

"I have had the pleasure of interviewing Kate on my show "My steps to sobriety" where we talked in depth about protecting the brain through healthy nutrition, exercise and a number of other measures. As a doctor I knew about the importance of these steps. But talking to Kate I realized her knowledge and passion for the topic came from a 10-year journey in which she accompanied her mother through increasingly painful times. This personal pain became the driver for Kate to develop her expertise and as a reader I am grateful and privileged that she shares her insights. "
