Dehydration and Poor Cognitive Performance

Posted by Dr. Karl R.O.S. Johnson, DC on Tue, Jan 23, 2024

Many elderly people simply do not drink enough water

I discovered this first hand when my 90 year old mother began living in an assisted living facility.

After approximately two weeks my mother's short term memory began to falter and to make matters worse she began hallucinating.

After a severe bout of diarrhea ( viral bug) she started seeing people in her room that simply were not there.

This really rattled me because prior to admittance into the assisted living facility she had full mental function.

Of course I do not blame anything on the assisted living facility. 

It was the fact that she was not in her own environment. This consisted of steady stream of water encouraged by my younger brother.

Once we increased her water intake her mental capability significantly improved and the hallucinations stopped.

How Systemic Enzymes Fight for Your Brain Health

Posted by Dr. Karl R.O.S. Johnson, DC on Tue, Dec 20, 2016


Your body requires millions of biochemical reactions to keep you alive day-in and day-out. These reactions wouldn’t be possible without enzymes, which can perform up to several million catalytic reactions per second [1]

The enzymes work by speeding up these biochemical reactions significantly – keeping a pace that’s fast enough for your very survival.

While your body does manufacture enzymes (trillions of them), this manufacture slows down with age, declining at a rate of up to 13 percent per decade after you reach puberty. Eventually, you will likely reach a state of enzyme deficiency, and this time may coincide with many symptoms and conditions blamed on “aging.”
