Become a Certified Dental Practitioner Bringing Integrated Root Cause Medicine to Dental Care.
Become a certified dental professional and participate in dementia prevention and reversal using the Bredesen Protocol while working with medical professionals and health coaches. Our program equips dentists with the knowledge and tools necessary to address potential cognitive decline in their patients.
Bredesen Protocol dental practitioners are in high demand, and the specialized knowledge and expertise provided by Apollo Health places you in the perfect launching spot to ascend as a leader in the field of treating, preventing, and reversing cognitive decline.
The First Protocol to Reverse Early-Stage Alzheimer’s
The study “Precision Medicine Approach to Alzheimer’s Disease: Successful Pilot Project” used a precision medicine protocol called ReCODE to improve cognition in eighty-four percent of participants. They took a deeper dive into each of the study participant’s genetics and biomarkers to derive the optimal personalized, precision medicine protocol for each. Their results built off many years of case studies but are unprecedented in clinical trials, and you can train to use them now in your own practice.
$1,999 / Certified Dental Professionals will receive:
ReCODE Certification
18 Continuing Education Credits*
Special designation in our practitioner database as a ReCODE Certified Dental Professional enabling you to attract participants in the ReCODE and PreCODE programs who are seeking evaluation and treatment for their personal oral health risk factors contributing to their cognitive decline

Dr. Nathan will focus on biotoxins such as mold diagnosis, treatment, interpreting results, mold toxins in food, antifungal programs, testing your home, case studies, and detoxification. In addition, he will discuss Lyme Disease. View Dr. Nathan’s full bio here.
Dr. Cyrus Raji joined the Neuroradiology faculty and the Neuroimaging Laboratories faculty as an Assistant Professor at the Mallinckrodt Institute of Radiology in 2018.
He has trained at prestigious institutions for both clinical medicine and research: M.D./Ph.D. at the University of Pittsburgh, Diagnostic Radiology Residency at UCLA, and National Institutes of Health (NIH), and Neuroradiology Fellowships at UCSF.
Dr. Raji has coined the term “Preventive Neuroradiology” to detail the use of brain imaging biomarkers to understand the influence of lifestyle on overall brain health and future risk for Alzheimer’s. The New York Times, CNN, and the BBC have covered his scientific work in this area. His research has received the Radiological Society of North America’s (RSNA) Roentgen Award, and the American Society of Neuroradiology (ASNR), RSNA, and the NIH have funded him. He was also a recipient of the 2017 American Society of Neuroradiology Boeger Award Grant for Alzheimer’s Imaging research. Dr. Raji will focus on volumetric MRIs. View Dr. Raji’s full bio here.

Sharing the knowledge she gained from reversing her cognitive decline, she’s collaborated with Dr. Bredesen and his integrative physician wife, Dr. Aida Lasheen Bredesen, to write the handbook portion of the New York Times bestseller “The End of Alzheimer’s Program”. She’s the founder and president of the ApoE4.Info non-profit, a grassroots organization of ApoE4 carriers working to prevent and reverse Alzheimer’s disease.
Julie integrates her background in journalism, public relations, and counseling, with her passion for cognitive health to serve as a Bredesen protocol educator and Alzheimer’s activist.
Julie will focus on The Bredesen Seven (B7) and the various components of implementing the protocol. You can view Julie’s full bio here.
