      RECLAIM YOUR HEALTH - ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE - Dr. Harris E. Phillip

      Foreword

      By Professor Ali Nakash

      While continuing with his 30+ years’ experience in clinical practice, Harris has decided to sum up much of what he has gained from seeing and treating thousands, maybe millions, of patients with a myriad of medical problems over the years. In his summary, which has been compiled into a series of twelve chunk-sized books, the reader is provided with usable tools which are presented in a simple, readily digestible format to allow everyone to benefit. From the least medically inclined among us, to the nursing student, the pharmacy student, the nurse, the pharmacist, the midwifery student, the midwife, the medical student, and the trained doctor, whether junior or senior. In essence there are useful nuggets of easy-to-follow guidance for all.

      In the first book in the series, he starts with a disease we all dread. Many including my wife call it that disease…. You certainly know the disease to which I refer, it is cancer.

      Reading through the pages of the first book in this series, I was immediately impressed with the presentation. Such a complex condition was condensed into such simple and easy-to-follow guidance. Not only has he addressed cancer from its cellular level, but he has also extended the discussion to allow you, the reader, to appreciate plausible causative agents for this condition once it is initiated. He gives some insight into how the disease process flourishes, and towards the end of the book he addresses how we can make ourselves cancer-proof.

      Making ourselves cancer-proof I find particularly interesting since it allows both medical and non-medical personnel to explore avenues through which they can empower both themselves and their patients as together we fight this dreaded disease.

      In the other books of this series which are being completed, the approach is the same, whether it is addressing Alzheimer’s disease, cardiovascular disease, diabetes, or the other chronic health challenges of our time. I am particularly impressed with the presentation, the relative simplicity, and the inherent usefulness of this series. This doubtlessly will not only empower, but also serve as a useful companion handbook on our journey to reclaiming our health.

      Mr. Phillip is an award-winning author for his book, STOP! It’s Not Too Late!: Adding Years to Your Life and Life to Your Years Using the BMS Model, a book which I call an encyclopaedic guide to healthy living. But in this book series I think he has outdone himself as he seeks to provide the tools that we all need to reclaim our health.

      He has most definitely put his years of training and experience in capsule form through the various books in this series. Mr Phillip is a trained senior consultant obstetrician and gynaecologist and has displayed his abundance of knowledge through the ease with which he addresses the various chronic health challenges of our times.

      This series, for me, represents an interesting and empowering piece of medical science which has been presented in a digestible format for even the non-medical personnel among us. I am therefore moved to make this bold prediction that once you start reading these books, you will find it difficult to stop because of the timeliness and appropriateness of their contents.

      Introduction

      Several years ago, I was employed as a teacher, which incidentally was my first professional job. While entering the classroom to deliver a biology lecture to a group of students at the Saint Andrews High School, who were preparing to write the General Certificate of Education examination (GCE or GCSE, as referred to in the UK), a young man who claimed he had no interest in Biology collected his books and was leaving the classroom to go to the library, as I entered to deliver the lecture. The lecture was designed to highlight the characteristics of living things and to help distinguish the living from the dead. I commenced the lecture with the statement, ‘once one starts living, he/she starts dying’. Inherent in that statement is that both living and dying are processes. Even deeper is the realisation that what we refer to as life is simply a grant of two dates and a dash. Upon hearing this introduction, the young man made an about-turn and asked permission to attend my class. I did not convert him into a biologist, but he left the class much better informed. Today that young man is a politician. We are granted a date of birth and a date of death: between these two dates is the dash and that is the focus of this book, how can we extend the dash to delay our date of death. I prefer to look at the whole scenario as a rubber band that can be stretched between two points, the two points being the date of birth and the date of death. We can do nothing about our date of birth, that date is beyond our control, but if my analogy of a rubber band is fully understood, and since our date of birth cannot be seriously influenced by our action or inaction, for the rubber band concept to hold, it means that the dash can be extended and thus we can delay our date of death.

      My paternal grandmother, for instance, lived to a ripe old age of 115 years. She lived a fully independent life, still being able to cook and care for herself in her 115th year. This is not widespread, I hear you say, and my response is why not? Do we have any skills, knowledge, or abilities in the current era to approach this lifespan and make it more of the expected norm as opposed to an occasional event?

      It is with this burning desire that I have used my medical knowledge, gleaned in the field, as well as my extensive research, the skills of which I learned as a university student in organic and biochemistry at a top 10USA university as I pursed a PhD degree in Biochemistry. This training not only provided me with the skills and tools which I needed to pursue the more inquisitive aspect of my person, but also has alerted me to the value of research. Thus, when faced with a challenging question, I revert to research to help me determine the answer.

      In observing the lifestyle of my paternal grandmother, my 30+ years of
