Psilocybin and Advanced Alzheimer's: A Reported Case of Improvement

Advanced Alzheimer's patient. She regained speech, memory,

and bladder control after a single psilocybin

dose. Tell us about this.

This is absolutely groundbreaking, actually, because for

Alzheimer's, we haven't really ever seen

a documented case report of somebody with advanced

Alzheimer's basically going into at least partial

remission, right? And so what they found in this particular

case

was this was a, an, an elderly woman with advanced

Alzheimer's. She could

barely hold a sentence.

She could barely talk.

She wet the bed at night. And they

said, "You know what? We're gonna try.

We're gonna give her psilocybin." They gave

her five grams of

that, okay? That's a very high dose.

So she, and so she literally, like, went into a sleep-like state

for 15 hours. And

when she woke up from the sleep, um,

all of a sudden, she could talk again. She remembered words.

She remembered her family. She could speak in full sentences.

She regained her memory. She regained her

ability to hold conversations. She even regained her bladder

control. She stopped wetting the bed, and she regained mobility.

She could walk again. No

Alzheimer's drug has ever done anything

close to this.

Mm-hmm. Wow, that is amazing.
