Dedication
This book is dedicated to my wife Laurie Adamson.
Laurie encouraged me to write this book.
This book is also dedicated to my mother who inspired me to always ask why.
Because of my mothers resilience, she is 94 and one of the few Alzheimers survivors.
Forward
Could science develop some kind of antidote to counteract brain drain? Philippe Grandjean
Brain drain is declining IQ in the young and mild cognitive impairment followed by Alzheimers disease in the old. Young and old alike suffer from brain drain due to environmental chemicals and viruses that impact both brain development in the young and neuron survival in the old. This book answers Grandjeans question regarding antidotes for brain drain by uncovering a series of brain savers that that are essential nutrients targeted to detoxify specific brain draining environmental chemicals by facilitating their detoxification and elimination. Some of these brain savers also enhance the immune system making us more likely to be cured and survive pandemics such as COVID-19. Finally, a protocol is defined that can reverse mild cognitive impairment and save aging brains from Alzheimers disease. This book is written for those of us who are resilient and have a willingness to take action that can save and protect the brains of those we love from environmental and viral attack.
Acknowledgements
I appreciate the support and encouragement of my wife Laurie Adamson who has been an immense help in the search for information. I also thank the following scientists: Virginie Rondeau for finding aluminum in drinking water increases the risk of Alzheimers while OSA rich water lowers the risk of Alzheimers; Chris Exley for finding that OSA rich water can improve cognition in some AD patients; and Margret Rayman for showing that selenium status correlates with COVID-19 cure rate. Special thanks to Dr. Carol T. Walsh, Mr. Peter Liberman, and my wife Laurie Adamson for their editing and useful comments. Thanks to all the people who provided anecdotal information, some of which is included in this book.

About the Author
I was inspired by my parents to always ask why. In high school I began researching the effect of environmental chemicals on salamander regeneration. I found that just traces of some environmental chemicals can prevent normal development of regenerating tissue in salamanders. This is disturbing because some of these chemicals were and still are being used on food crops.
