They did a trial, https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.05.10.21256982v..., and it worked very well.
It's being commercialized here: https://www.apollohealthco.com/, and the guy has patents on everything.

Given that Americans work more than most other countries it’s a wonder how they get enough sleep or time to cook healthy.
México, Costa Rica, Korea, and Greece would like a word, on both working harder and eating better: https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2018/01/the-countries-where-p...
I've done a bit of research here. It's not snake oil. They did a trial, https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2021.05.10.21256982v... , and it worked very well. It's being commercialized here: https://www.apollohealthco.com/ , and the guy has patents on everything.
Only 25 patients, not double-blind, no controls.
Maybe I'm a cynic but it strains credulity that the miracle cure is also a laundry list of fad health trends from the the last decade. Gluten free, intermittent fasting, yoga, melatonin, probiotics, etc etc
If what you're telling me is that eating healthy, getting enough sleep and exercising can halt or reverse Alzheimer's it's not going to exactly shock me. The real fad is how amazingly stupid Americans are about their own health.
It didn't help. If anything in my observations it made things worse. Though it's a meaningless sample size.

American culture is staggeringly unhealthy. Denying this is impossible.
Not sure we're alone. Take the UK, for example. 2/3 are either overweight or obese. Better than the US? Sure. But what a weak victory that is.

Can we get one supplement pill that merges all of those that need to be consumed? Kthx.

Melatonin helps with sleep disorders... for people with sleep disorders. There is a synthetic analog called Ramelteon.
Intermitent fasting has curious effects on insulin resistance, but not clinically relevant.
Probiotics reduce incidence and severity of traveler's diarrhea... for travelers. It has been comercially available for a while.
Like Ivermectin, which is not snake oil, but is also being sold for the same purposes as snake oil.

Man, that sounds exactly like something you'd see one of the guests on the Tim Ferriss podcast talking about. What ever happened to ballroom dancing and bridge?
I'm learning piano and it's a never ending brain game. You sit there for an hour trying to coax new neurons in various areas to grow.

Ah yes, every single one of them. And none of the people in any other country.

Maybe 29% is staggeringly unhealthy, but it isn't American culture to be that overweight. Being overweight is fairly widespread and not unique to America.
Probably it has more to do with lifestyle changes (e.g. cars and working at computers) and diet changes (rise of processed and fast food). These things have disparate impact on racial groups, e.g. hispanics and blacks are considerably more overweight than whites. America having more hispanics and blacks than places like the UK, the US seems like it is more obese.

I'm definitely biased by living in the southern hemisphere for almost half a decade. The places I've lived are visibly healthier than the US. People have less chronic health problems, take fewer sick days, etc.
