![]() I remember so well the day my mom confided in me how much it embarrassed her that she was forgetting words when out walking with her friends. My mother was a sweet, light-hearted, silly, affectionate woman and all of a sudden, in the space of less than a year, her health started to rapidly deteriorate. She went from being a healthy, active middle-aged woman to a (still) silly and affectionate woman , but who could no longer open doors with knobs that needed to be twisted instead of pulled straight. And she was losing her ability to articulate her thoughts, which was even sadder to watch and I'm sure much more difficult to experience, especially for someone who loved people as much as she did. Alzheimer's is a treacherous thief and I knew I couldn't "save" the belongings in her mind, but I wanted to help her to continue to enjoy socializing for as long as possible. As a consulting herbalist and nutritionist I knew that Frankincense resin was highly acknowledged for memory and brain function. I had also seen it successful at mobilizing speech for two of my young autistic clients. So, I looked at Frankincense to help my mom to reclaim her brain functions, especially to find the words to express herself again. I'm so glad that I did! Frankincense has several attributes that point to why it is good for the brain.
Voila! Here I'd found something that not only had the potential to cross into the brain, but to reduce inflammation in the brain, and also improve cellular function in the brain. With the young autistic clients I'd recommended frankincense to, incredibly, one talked for the first time the day after his first application and the other sang for the first time the same week after his! Both mothers applied Frankincense topically from the base of their children’s necks down their spines. This oil has promise! What's more... The American Medical Association has said that , "If they could find an agent that would pass the blood-brain barrier, they would be able to find cures for ailments such as Lou Gehrig’s disease, multiple sclerosis, Alzheimer’s disease, and Parkinson’s disease." Feeling that I was on the right track, I dug through my herbal books and without much effort found that 4-5 drops of Frankincense could be taken in a capsule 2-3 times daily to support brain function. Taking essential oils orally wasn't new to me, but I wanted to take every safety precaution with my mother because she was frail and more sensitive than me. So I followed all of the safety guidelines for ingesting essential oils.
With a little trial and error, my dad and I started making my mom what she called her "talking pills". The change was heart-warming. She was more articulate and talkative sometimes and more mindfully pensive at others. She was more capable of everyday tasks. It was like each time she took a pill she leveled-up a step from wherever she was in her downhill progression. We got a little more quality time with her and she got more quality out of her time. The tree resin from which Frankincense essential oil is derived was traditionally used for many things, including as a preservative for embalming, but I think of Frankincense more as a preservative for those still living! The "talking pills" didn't stop the disease or make it less sad, but they did improve my mom's quality of life.

Hi, Debbie, I am in the same situation that you are regarding our Autistic grandson with whom we have custody. I ordered the Frankincense compound. It didn't arrive yet and I will let you know the outcome. We intend to use it by putting a couple of drops on a medical mask for a few times a day.

I appreciate what you said about how a tree resin can be put in with frankincense. I need to get an aromatic diffuser. I need to get something to help me sleep.

I have decided to make this post or testimony public. My husband was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s ten years ago. I loved my husband very much, and it was heartbreaking to have him develop Alzheimer's disease, and to stand by and watch him decline in his ability to take care of himself, struggling with day-to-day tasks. It takes away his memory and eventually the ability to do basic tasks. Alzheimer’s doesn’t just affect the person who is diagnosed — it also turns your world as caregiver, upside down if your loved one is grappling with the condition. To be clear, there is no pharmaceutical medicine, no magic pill that has any significant effect on the progressive downhill course of this disease. Not until we use an Herbal Medicine called BRONGEE that puts an end to it. He has been well and living his best life. While there may be other different options. Never make your own success path a secret. There should be no shame. Contact Dr. Rohan with dr.rohanronjohn@gmail.com or WhatsApp with +393512146722. It may also help you too

My husband first experienced confusion and loss of memory in May of 2012 while undergoing rehab for alcoholism. Being home seemed to help him until 2017 when he gradually began experiencing Alzheimer’s symptoms. He had four to five hours a day where he wanted to get a "greyhound" to "go home." Also, he thinks I am his sister and believes he has rented a car (he hasn't driven in 5 years). His personal hygiene was in the tank, it was necessary for him to change two to three times a day. Without long-term insurance for his care, it was becoming stressful to care for him. This year our family friend "Ken" introduced and started him on BRONGEE HERBAL SUPPLEMENTS for Alzheimer's and Dementia, 2 months into treatment he improved dramatically. At the end of the full treatment course, the disease is totally gone. No case of Alzheimer’s, hallucination, forgetfulness, and others, he’s strong again and able to go about daily activities.
