Neurological Disorders

The original Deanna Protocol, as provided by Dr Vicent Tedone.  Deanna being Dr. Tedone's daughter who has ALS or Lou Gerigs Disease.   The purpose of each supplement described in the table is according to Tedone and is not based on the evidence provided in this paper. The protocol below has recently been revised to now include additional AKG supplementation hourly while awake.  The protocol also recommends daily massage of extra virgin coconut oil into the muscles along with oral coconut oil supplementation if tolerated. In addition, Tedone recommends resistance, aerobic, stretching, and range of motion exercises.

All neurological diseases such as ALS and MS are similar in their attack on the central nervous system.  It is my opinion that this protocol, though focused on ALS, is applicable for other diseases such as MS, Alzheimers and Dimentia and neuromuscular diseases such as Bells Palsy and Muscular Distrophy and Parkinson's.

*These supplements are indicated by Tedone as the most important supplements in the protocol.

Coconut Oils and  the reversal and healing of :
Alzheimer's, Dementia, Epileptic Seizures, ALS...
muscle fatigue improvement, aches and pains improved and

really all neurological types issues see improvement overall.  Diabetes 3 of the brain is the ketone's that the brain uses as fuel is starved and coconut oil is a viable bio-available ketone type oil that the liver uses immediately.  The uptake is quite quick and the reversal of the brain malady noteworthy, no matter the issue.  The brain given its nutritive help responds no matter the issue.  There is notable information and results in using Coconut Oil on autism persuade one to go ahead and use this oil in everyday diet.  Watch the video and you should be quite ready to avail yourself of its healing properties.  An ounce of prevention is worth the pound of cure.  PS: 3 tablespoons per day minimum 4 optimum.  To bowel tolerance of course.  Some will build up to it and the bowel adjusts and then loose stool is over come.  For most this will be welcomed as constipation is more of an issue in general than is diarrhea.  Just do not be alarmed if you get a loose movement.  Back up the dose and let your system get used to the nutrition; it will soon respond nicely.

A wonderful side note that I have noticed is less hunger.  We put it on our english muffin in the morning and we do not have the hunger pangs and munchies a few short hours later.  I have eaten eggs and such trying to get the proteins and still will be hungry a few short hours later.  Menopause has a hormonal impact that ones brain does not get the message to the tummy that it is satisfied.  Coconut oil has been the remedy.  Good fats vs bad fats.  It has helped reduce tummy fat and it turns fat in the body to brown fat that the body uses to burn bad fat.

Reverses neurological disorders such as dementia, alzheimers and ALS, MS.  Good fats vs bad fats and the medium chain fatty acid protocol
Coconut oil is an important component of a ketogenic diet, as it provides ketones due to the presence of medium chain fatty acids

Plaques and tangles are known to be hallmarks of Alzheimer's disease, but another important aspect of Alzheimer's is that it may be a type of diabetes of the brain or "type 3 diabetes," and is associated with decreased glucose uptake in the brain. Diabetes of the brain develops gradually over at least one to two decades before symptoms become obvious. Other neurodegenerative diseases share the problem of decreased glucose uptake in the brain. Fortunately, the brain can use ketone bodies as an alternative fuel to glucose during starvation. Ketogenic diets have been successfully used for nearly a century to treat drug resistant epilepsy in children. Medium chain fatty acids are partly converted in the liver to ketones bodies, which readily cross the blood brain barrier and are used by the brain. Mild ketosis from consuming MCT oil has been shown to produce cognitive improvement in nearly half of people with Alzheimer's. Ketone esters that will produce higher levels of ketosis and potentially greater improvement are on the horizon.

Mary T. Newport, M.D. grew up in Cincinnati, Ohio, received an Honors Bachelor of Arts degree from Xavier University and graduated from the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine in 1978. She trained in Pediatrics at Children's Hospital Medical Center in Cincinnati, and in Neonatology, the care of sick and premature newborns, at the Medical University Hospital in Charleston, SC. She has provided care to newborns in Florida since 1983 and is the founding medical director of the newborn intensive care unit at Spring Hill Regional Hospital, practicing there as a member of the All Children's/John Hopkins Specialty Physicians group. She previously served as medical director at Mease Hospital Dunedin, after founding the NICU there in 1987.

Dr. Newport has been married to Steve Newport since 1972 and they have two daughters and a grandson. She is also caregiver for Steve, who suffers from early onset Alzheimer's disease. In July 2008, she wrote an article that has become disseminated world-wide on the internet, "What If There Was a Cure for Alzheimer's Disease and No One Knew?" and is author of a book released in October 2011, (Alzheimer's Disease: What If There Was a Cure?). Her book conveys the story of a dietary intervention that helped her husband and, now, many other people with Alzheimer's and certain neurodegenerative diseases, as well as the science of ketones and how to incorporate medium chain fatty acids into the diet. Dr. Newport has given numerous radio interviews and lectures on this subject.
