    A year ago I believed I had early onset Alzheimer’s 😳 So i went to the Atlanta Amen Clinic and discovered I have ADD. Additionally with what’s called The Ring of Fire. My supplement and exercise program has been a game changer. I recommend it to everyone.

    Don’t waste your money. There’s no point in getting a SPECT scan. If you need help, go to a psychiatrist who won’t make you pay $5k to inject you with radiation for a colorful picture. If you want to know about your brain’s strengths and weaknesses, get cognitive testing done. That will tell you more.

    Thanks for sharing this. I wish I had gotten this when I was younger. A lot of people struggle because "self-help" doesn't work. It's a worthwhile investment to get more specific information on how to help yourself. Watching you go through the process takes away some of the anxiety about what it will be like. What about follow ups, if you get a follow up scan it would be interesting to see how it changed. Also, a follow up on how your therapy went and whether the whole thing gave you significant improvements. Also, you want to post videos and get views and comments, but then you don't go back and answer the questions from the viewers.

    Yes. Radiation is necessary for SPECT. Please never give money to Amen. You can get a better brain scan than SPECT for cheaper and without radiation (fMRI). SPECT is fine if you need it but it is useless for psychiatric disorders (fMRI is also useless for psychiatric disorders, but at least you’d get a better scan if you really wanted to see your brain). Amen is a con artist who wants your $5k.

I know diet and supplements are part of the plan. If there suggestions are to costly thru BrainMD I have other ways. I researched the drs I am Zooming for my results and many are from highly regarded backgrounds. Do your home work for any procedure.

    Isn't it sad that our medical healthcare insurance mostly only covers reactive needs for health? There's foundational information we all should get in order to help us know that certain choices can maximize us and hopefully reduce costs and suffering as we age.

    Good question. Supplements won’t help blood flow. The supplements Amen sells are a scam. Remember that supplements are not regulated by the FDA. If you need help, see a psychiatrist (not Amen). Amen will make you pay for SPECT just so he can earn $5k. SPECT is useless for mental disorders and they don’t change the treatment at all. Also, SPECT isn’t necessary to find tumors. Scans that don’t require radiation can easily find tumors. I’m a neuroscience student and I’ve seen how this works.
