Watch Dr Keith’s Souvenaid® patient journey
Dr Keith’s wife, Heather says Souvenaid® gave her peace of mind. “Keith’s decline isn’t anywhere it should have been following his diagnosis. In the beginning, I was devastated and thought, we’ll have to make the most of this Christmas, but we’ve had three wonderful Christmas celebrations since.”
Case study: Beverley Henderson (as told by her daughter, Deb) Location: Entrance, NSW
“Souvenaid brought back my mother. Her memory was back to ‘normal’ within three months.”
My mother Beverley, 88, moved in with me in 2016. Within a year, I noticed her behaviour was increasingly bizarre as she started to act disorientated on a daily basis.
My Mum started mixing up her medications, sometimes taking double the amount, couldn’t complete her daily crosswords, forgot familiar names, got lost on the way home from outings, frequently confused days and dates and claimed she had déjà vu.
Along with my two sisters, I took mum to a Geriatrician who diagnosed her with Alzheimer’s disease. She immediately prescribed Souvenaid, a food for special medical purposes that nutritionally supports memory function during the early stages of Alzheimer’s disease.
Within three months, after taking Souvenaid every day, Mum was nearly back to her usual self.
Souvenaid brought back time with my mother. Instead of living in a nursing home, she can live independently at home with me now. Nothing is more precious than her memory.
Case study: Edward Reeves (as told by his wife, Anne) Location: Whittlesea, VIC
“Eddie’s memory loss has stabilised since his diagnosis; he’s still able to live at home with me and function independently.”
In 2014, Eddie told me that he noticed that he had lost his sense of smell and as the years progressed, as his wife, I noticed that he was withdrawing from conversations and frequently becoming confused with everyday activities.
His family has a history of Alzheimer’s disease and this, combined with his symptoms, prompted me to organise an appointment with a specialist.
In 2016, Eddie was officially diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease. He was recommended Souvenaid, a food for special medical purposes that nutritionally supports memory function during the early stages of Alzheimer’s disease.
He has taken Souvenaid every day for the past four years which has slowed his memory decline.
I expected Eddie to deteriorate more rapidly but he’s been great. I feel really fortunate at present as he is still able to live at home with me and function independently.
