There are 5.4 million people who have Alzheimer's. It cost 183 billion dollars in annual costs. Alz's is the 6th leading cause of death.
To get something you never had, you have to do something you never did.' When God takes something from your grasp, He's not punishing you, but merely opening your hands to receive something better. Concentrate on this sentence... 'The will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not protect you.
WE LOVE HIM BECAUSE HE FIRST LOVED US

Coconut Oil and Alzheimers

I found this online . What do you all think? I might buy some and see if I like it. Couldn't hurt. Mom is to far gone I think for it to help. But what the heck. We will try it anyway.

    Hi Karen,
    A couple of post back on my blog, I mentioned David's neurologist prescribing Axona.......Axona is made from coconut oil. David's taken a packet of it each morning, mixed with water, with his breakfast.

    I'm with you..... what can it hurt...and I'm sure what your looking at is cheaper than the prescription.

    Good luck...
