All This and a Bottle of Olive Oil

By Valerie Driscoll, Lead Coach and Coaching Program Developer for Apollo Health

In every way except actual money, I move through the world continuously calculating my ROI, or return on investment. It is one of the reasons I hate to cook or bake, as I consider it to have a low return on investment: if I am going to spend 4 hours making something, I want the results to last a minimum of a decade. It is why I prefer painting a wall, tiling a backsplash, or planting a garden. It is also why I invest in great support, whether it be quality footwear, bedding, or friends, as those investments always pay off big rewards for the effort put in.

Because I have this mindset, I am always stunned when I engage with Apollo PreCODE or ReCODE members who declare that they are bothered by paying our monthly membership for “nothing”. “Have you gone on the website?” I then query, to which they often respond, “not really”. I then play tour guide via Zoom and wait to hear the inevitable jaw hitting the floor as a member realizes what they have been missing. There is simply nowhere to get a greater ROI on your Bredesen Protocol journey than by becoming an Apollo member. And this is by any metric, whether you want to consider time, money, or convenience. Even if you take advantage of 50% of what we offer, you are winning. The beauty of our site is that it meets you whatever your learning style and allows you to navigate your own way through this tricky protocol. Are you a gleaner? We tell you exactly how to get started on your journey with short summaries for each part of the B7. Like depth? The Apollo website is like the Louvre and its vast collection; if you were to stop at every guide and read the first paragraph, it would take you a year!

Keeping with my theme. A great ROI for the time that you are going to spend reading this piece would be to cover the Apollo Health website’s Top 5 Greatest Hits. Here they are, in no particular order, other than how a neophyte might find them the most beneficial; I am also including hyperlinks for our members; just click on the blue letters. If you are not a member, I hope you will be intrigued by what could await you behind the paywall.

1. Where to start – We welcome you to your Brain Health Journey.
    
2. Our Search Engine, on your home page, looks like this:

Are you wondering what you can make with an avocado, jicama, or chia seeds? Confused about measuring your glucose? Want to know about mold or the best types of movement for your brain? Type in a keyword or words, hit the magnifying glass, and you will have a selection of answers from which you can choose. (I heartily recommend the avocado pesto, which is delish and freezes well!)

3. The Grocery Guide – printable, colorful, the one-stop for everything to eat on the KetoFLEX 12/3 nutrition plan. At its most basic, if it ain’t there, don’t eat it. Pro Tip – laminate the Grocery Guide (GG) or put it in one of the 400 plastic sleeves you have laying around your office; until you get to know it by heart, make the GG something you bring with you to shop or eat out.
    
4. The Apollo Guides – Containing both condensed and unlimited information on everything Bredesen Protocol related. In-depth, dynamic, and comprehensive in a way that books cannot be, they are the ultimate wealth of knowledge.
    
5. Town Halls – The brilliance of Dr. Bredesen and colleagues coming right to your ears; nothing could be better. You will have to strap in, because this is the rocket ship through the Brain Health Universe — don’t worry, though, as there is also a written transcript that links to the video so you can slow down and absorb the information at your own pace. Want to learn more about a term you see in a Town Hall? Chances are, if you type it into the aforementioned Search Engine, something will pop up.
   
   Bonuses …
   
   
6. The Member Forum – In the forum, members ask questions of our experts, which often include other members who have been there and done that. It is a wonderful way to feel supported in your journey as a member of our wonderful community.
    
7. Amphora Nueva Olive Oil – We’ve gotta connection to this delicious high-polyphenol olive oil, and we’re sharing it with you! I am stopping at #7, but the list could go on. And on. Are you a member and curious? Just click our hyperlinks and get started. Not a member, we hope you are convinced that the investment you make with Apollo Health will have high yields in returning or protecting your cognitive health.
