Can Alzheimer’s and cognitive decline be managed more effectively?
Health coach Kerry Mills Rutland, a National Board Certified Health and Wellness coach and dedicated practitioner of the Bredesen Protocol, believes so. By integrating Personalized Nutrients into the protocol, she has helped simplify treatment, boost results, and reduce stress for patients and caregivers.
Understanding the Bredesen Protocol
The Bredesen Protocol is a science-backed, functional medicine approach to addressing Alzheimer’s, dementia, and cognitive decline that combines:
- Comprehensive blood work to detect underlying imbalances.
- Lifestyle and diet adjustments.
- Targeted supplementation.
The primary goal is to restore brain health, slow progression, or even reverse early-stage cognitive impairment.
From Discovery to Early Adoption
Kerry first read Dr. Dale Bredesen’s groundbreaking work in 2014. By 2017, she had joined a select network of practitioners applying the method and quickly saw its potential to:
- Improve memory and focus in mild cognitive impairment.
- Slow or halt decline in advanced cases.
- Restore hope to families.
The Supplement Management Challenge
While diet and exercise fit naturally into daily life, supplement management became a major obstacle.
Some patients required 50–60 pills per day, leading to time-consuming preparation, missed doses, and added caregiver stress.
To solve this, Kerry introduced custom nutraceutical formulations in collaboration with Personalized Nutrients that were customized based on each patient’s lab results. This tailored approach eliminated the need for families to source, measure, and manage a multitude of supplements, significantly reducing complexity.
Kerry’s approach tracks success through:
- Regular blood work to refine supplementation.
- Brain imaging and volumetric parameters to observe physical improvements.
- Patient reports of sharper memory, increased energy, and improved mood.
Some clients have shown brain volume growth within a year which is a powerful sign of recovery.
Why This Matters
The combination of the Bredesen Protocol and Personalized Nutrients offers a powerful, practical solution for managing cognitive decline. It does so by making care more manageable for families, improving patient compliance, and enhancing overall cognitive health outcomes, while also restoring a renewed sense of hope and optimism for both patients and their caretakers.
Cognitive decline doesn’t have to mean giving up.
With a tailored, science-based approach like the Bredesen Protocol supported by personalized nutrients, care can be simpler, more effective, and more hopeful.
