“Impossible!” you say?
Incredible as it may seem, the man who wrote this book
was given the diagnosis of Alzheimer’s Disease, a diagnosis
as dreaded as cancer to most people.
What a predicament: To be sentenced for the rest of your
life to a world of increasing forgetfulness. To be a burden to
those around you. To be found wandering the streets of your
neighborhood not knowing your way home, unable to dress
or feed yourself, not recognizing your children or your spouse
when they walk into the room.
And yet, that is what awaits most people who receive this
diagnosis.
Traditional medicine with all of its modern technology and
thousands of “wonder” drugs has nothing to offer.
How is it, then, that torn Warren, author of this book, was
able to recover from such an incurable disease and now lives
a meaningful, useful life?
torn had to take responsibility for his health into his own
hands and, through extensive reading, was able to find the
crucial steps that led to his recovery. Tom’s step-by-step plan
is available for everyone. I have seen this treatment work for
many patients who have had other “hopeless” diseases; these
people were transformed into active, happy, alert human
beings again. Numerous patients who were told, “It’s all in
your head,” are now free from symptoms after diagnosis and
treatment of food allergies, environmental sensitivities, subclinical
mineral and vitamin deficiences, and toxic dental
materials.
Says torn Warren, “The road to recovery is not an easy
path or a straight line, nor is it fast. Rather, it is a cobblestone
road of many tiny lifestyle changes, each a progressive step
toward enlightenment that brings ever-increasing vitality and
clarity of thought.”
If you are ready to take that path, I urge you to read this
book!

What This Book Is Abo >.
When torn Warren was diagnosed as having Alzheimer’s
disease, neither he, a successful insurance agent, nor his
wife, a practicing pharmacologist, accepted the doctor’s
finding as final. While no one had ever documented a
reversal of Alzheimer’s, they refused to believe there was
nothing they could do. For six years, torn — during his
lucid periods — and his wife pored through all the medical
literature, both orthodox and alternative. What they
found, as astonishing as it sounds, was enough
information for torn Warren to develop an effective
treatment that would beat his “incurable” disease.
Beating Alzheimer’s is the true story of torn Warren
and his experience with Alzheimer’s disease. In it, torn
outlines the step-by-step plan that he followed to free
himself from the grips of this relentless disease. torn
includes the latest documented research that explains
why his treatment worked, and why it may also work for
other related brain diseases.
Although this nontoxic, noninvasive treatment is
relatively new, as word has spread, many physicians have
contacted torn and have put their patients on his
program with very positive results. This book makes this
plan directly available to the general Dublic for the first
time.

Acknowledgments
I call Beating Alzheimer’s my story, but that is not accurate.
The credit for both my recovery and book belongs to
more than just me—my wife, Louise; the Well Mind Association,
of Seattle, Washington; some of the best physicians
in the world; and, of course, God’s blessings and
mercy.
Many thanks must also go to the allergy patients, the
physicians, and the other medical professionals who read
my manuscript and made many thoughtful suggestions.
To Sandra Denton, M.D.; Richard Wilkinson, M.D.; Russell
Jaffe, M.D.; William G. Crook, M.D.; Abram Hoffer,
M.D.; Hal Huggins, D.D.S.; Sam Ziff and his son, Michael
Ziff, D.D.S.; and the authors of the numerous books and
medical reports I read that literally saved my life: Thank
you.
I would also like to thank Susan Carskadon, my agent,
who made many thoughtful suggestions that are now a
part of the book.
Other wonderful, helpful people edited my manuscript
over the several years that this work has been in progress.
To each and every one of them, my heartfelt thanks. Because
of your selfless efforts, tens of thousands of others
will be the beneficiaries.
There are two of this breed whom I wish to particularly
mention. To Mike Barrett, news reporter and editor, who
resides in Burlington, Washington: Thank you, Mike. And
David Call. Dave is a former attorney, accountant, and
friend who burned the midnight oil until his face turned
white and black shiners appeared under his eyes in reflection
of his intense effort to ready this manuscript, while
still keeping his dignity and good humor. In the wee hours
of the last early morning: Thank you, Dave.
Foreword
Do you see the challenges in your life as stumbling blocks
or stepping stones? We are all faced with challenges—
whether they are physical, mental, or spiritual; or concern
our relationships, work, finances, etc. We can let them get
the best of us or we can turn them into opportunities to
learn, grow, and share. I know of no other challenge that
shakes us to the depth of our soul more than to be given
the diagnosis of a terminal physical condition.
torn Warren turned an incredible challenge into a
journey of learning. He followed his heart when he knew
there was more that could be done than what the doctors
had told him. He studied and pushed himself to gain
knowledge and insight into ways he could unravel the
complex environmental prison he found himself trapped
in. Now he is sharing with all of us what he can, to help us
if we are searching for ways to improve our health.
