If I were experiencing cognitive decline right now, I’d at least experiment with ultrasound therapy to the brain. Here’s the protocol of a current study trying to reproduce the findings of a buried UofAZ study (Hammeroff) that claimed to reverse alzheimers.

You may have seen my friend Sterling promoting this on twitter, as the underlying theory is basically testing the Orch-OR theory of consciousness. He makes some bold claims, but I don’t think he’d do so lightly. Given how safe this is to try, seems like a no brainer to me.

That study is using the US Pro 2000 2nd Edition Portable Ultrasound Therapy Device, available on tenspros.com If it works, that’s $150 to repeatably reverse cognitive decline. Easy to imagine why ineffectual pharmaceutical companies might bury the finding.

If this works, it doesn’t PROVE orch-or, but it strongly suggests that microtubules are important to consciousness and mental health, which starts to dismantle the dominant neuon-centric model of the mind.
