    Optimising Brain Health As You Age Through Photobiomodulation With Dr Lew Lim
    Apr 26 2024
    Your brain defines who you are: taking care of its health and longevity is important. I know that better than anyone after having nursed my mum through strokes, aneurysms, concussions and neurodegeneration for years. So when it comes to brain optimisation and protection I want to know about it and Dr Lew Lim is the man to learn from. His technology is featured in the most published research in the field of brain photobiomodulation. It helps in the brain, the gut and the vagus nerve. Dr Lew Lim, PhD, MD, MBA has been studying photobiomodulation (PBM) and low-level light therapy for over 30 years. In the mid 1990's he invented intranasal photobiomodulation as a non-invasive method of introducing therapeutic photonic energy into the human body. He is the founder of vielight.com which brings intranasal and transcranial devices using photobiomodulation to the consumer. Vielight brain photobiomodulation devices combine electrical engineering and neuroscience.

General info on osteoporosis Loss of Bone Mass Density Dexa Scan T-score -1.0 to -2.5 is Osteopenia T-score less than -2.5 is Osteoporosis Bone is 40-50% inorganic component (hydroxyapatite), 10-15% water and 35% organic component(protein). 90% of the organic component is collagen Type 1 and the remaining 10% non-collagenous proteins Osteoblasts-formation of bone, secrete alkaline phosphatase to create sites for calcium and phosphate deposition.Osteoclasts-bone resorption, secretes acid phosphatase which unfixes the calciumOsteocytes are osteoblasts which are responsible for homeostasis of oxygen and mineral levels. Function: Supports the body, protects the organs, produces blood cells, and stores minerals and fats. Collagen, the protein that gives bones a framework for strength and flexibilityCalcium-phosphate mineral complexes, that fill in the gaps between the collagen frame work, making bones hard and strongLiving bone cells that remove and replace weakened sections of bone KoACT-Calcium collagen chelate Animal Study-8 weeks 4 groups No supplement KoACT-increased bone density by 3.5% 10x KoACT-increased bone strength by 10% Calcium and Collagen supplement increase bone strength by 1% Study 39 women 2 groups-12 months Post-menopausal women. 5 g of CC(calcium-collagen chelate) which contains 500 mg of elemental calcium and 200 IU Vitamin D 500 mg of calcium and 200 IU of Vitamin D The loss of whole body BMD in women taking CC was substantially lower than that of the control group at twelve months KoACT improves bone synthesis and reduces bone loss KoACT counteracts the natural process of bone loss in post-menopausal womenKoACT improves bone mineral densityKoACT improves bone mineral density better than calcium in post-menopausal womenKoACT improves total body bone mineral density significantly better than calcium in just three monthsBiomarkers for bone formation were increased significantly with KoACTKoACT improves biomarkers for bone formation, better than calcium.KoACT improves bone strength significantly better than calcium in animals Peak bone mass is around 30 years old. Losing 2-3% a year thereafter. 20% of hip fracture patients will pass away within a year. 1 out of 3 post menopausal women will fracture a bone Osteoporosis drugs (Bisphosphonate) slows down osteoclast activity. Increase risk of jaw necrosis and atypical femoral fractures. After 3 years of use the suggest a "Drug Holiday" Lifestyle: Lack of physical activity Excessive exercise Inflammation Smoking Alcohol Medication Family history Vitamin and nutrient deficiency Gluten Eliminate excess sugar, cigarette smoke and phosphoric acid-containing soda.
