Michigan’s Only Senior-Dedicated ReCODE Community

54 beds fully focused on reversing cognitive decline with the Bredesen Protocol.

 Backed by decades of research and real clinical results — where seniors experiencing memory loss, early Alzheimer’s, and cognitive decline receive a personalized, whole-person program designed to restore clarity, connection, and hope.

A Clear, Supportive Path Toward Cognitive Recovery

1. Initial Evaluation & Personalized ReCODE Plan

Your loved one receives a clinical evaluation from Apollo Health’s licensed medical team, who design a ReCODE protocol based on root-cause findings.

2. Move-In & Lifestyle Integration

Residents benefit from a supportive environment where meals, routines, and stress-reduction practices are all aligned with functional medicine principles.

3. Daily Support & Cognitive Engagement

 Each resident receives structured support for nutrition, sleep, movement, brain training, and emotional well-being.

4. Tracking Results & Ongoing Adjustments

 The clinical team oversees lab work, cognitive tracking, and continuous improvements to the resident’s personalized plan.

Backed by Peer-Reviewed Research.
Grounded in Results.
Built for Seniors.

The Bredesen Protocol (ReCODE) is the most researched approach to reversing cognitive decline in its early stages. In published clinical studies:

  • 84% of participants improved cognition

  • 75% showed measurable reversal in symptoms

At MCRC, we combine this research with a structured, senior-focused living environment that supports the personalized program each resident receives through their licensed Apollo Health clinical provider.

The Science Behind Hope:

Unlike traditional approaches that focus on a single drug or intervention, ReCODE addresses the multiple factors contributing to cognitive decline:

  • Inflammation reduction through targeted nutrition and supplements

  • Metabolic optimization via the KetoFLEX 12/3 dietary protocol

  • Sleep restoration and circadian rhythm regulation

  • Stress management and emotional well-being support

  • Detoxification from environmental and metabolic toxins

  • Cognitive stimulation and neuroplasticity enhancement

  • Physical movement tailored to individual capabilities

The Only All-ReCODE Senior Community in Michigan

Our entire 54-bed community is dedicated to seniors on the ReCODE journey not a wing, not a program, but the whole model. This is what sets us apart.

There are only a few residential environments in the U.S. designed exclusively around the Bredesen Protocol. MCRC is the only center in Michigan built from the ground up for:

A PLACE BUILT FOR CONNECTION

Because Cognitive Recovery Is Not Just Medical, It’s Human.

Families tell us the most painful part of cognitive decline isn’t just memory loss, it’s losing moments of connection.

At MCRC, we focus on restoring:

Our staff is trained in relationship-centered support, helping residents feel safe, valued, and understood. We don’t just care for seniors, we help them reconnect with who they are.

What We Provide and What We Don’t

To ensure clarity and transparency:

  • MCRC does not provide medical diagnoses or prescribe medical treatments.

  • Clinical care is provided exclusively through licensed Apollo Health providers or the senior’s own medical team.

  • MCRC provides the residential environment, lifestyle support, coaching, and daily program integration that make the ReCODE program possible.

This keeps us fully compliant while offering the highest level of support.

Complete Transparency About ReCODE Results

At Michigan Cognitive Recovery Center, we believe families deserve the complete truth about what to expect. The ReCODE Protocol has shown remarkable results in clinical trials, but we want you to understand both the promise and the limitations of this approach.

Recent Clinical Trial Results:
In two peer-reviewed studies of the ReCODE Protocol with participants diagnosed with mild to moderate Alzheimer’s disease:

  • 75-84% of participants showed measurable benefit, with the majority experiencing cognitive improvement or reversal of decline

  • 10-15% remained stable with no significant change in their condition

  • Less than 10% continued to decline despite treatment

Important Context About These Results:
These clinical trials specifically focused on individuals with mild to moderate Alzheimer’s disease—typically those scoring between 10-26 on the MoCA (Montreal Cognitive Assessment), where normal scores range from 27-30. Some participants improved dramatically, moving from mild impairment (MoCA score of 20) to normal cognitive function (MoCA score of 27-28), or from moderate impairment (MoCA score of 15) to mild or even normal ranges (MoCA scores of 23-28).

What About Severe Alzheimer’s Cases?
While our program welcomes residents at all stages, we want families to have realistic expectations. For individuals with severe Alzheimer’s (MoCA scores below 10), the improvements are typically more modest but can still be meaningful. We have witnessed remarkable transformations—residents who had lost the ability to walk or speak coherently have regained mobility, begun recognizing loved ones, and restored basic communication skills. However, severe cases rarely achieve the dramatic cognitive reversals seen in mild to moderate stages.

The Holistic Approach Benefit:
Even when cognitive improvement is limited, the ReCODE Protocol’s holistic approach—addressing nutrition, inflammation, sleep, stress, and detoxification—supports overall health and well-being. These interventions do no harm and often improve quality of life, physical health, and emotional stability regardless of cognitive outcomes.”

Give Your Loved One More Than Care Give Them a Chance at Clarity.​

Opening first quarter, 2026, Michigan Cognitive Recovery Center will be the only memory care facility in the Eastern United States fully dedicated to the ReCODE Protocol​

A clinically-proven approach that has helped 75-84% of participants with mild to moderate Alzheimer’s disease improve or reverse cognitive decline.

This isn’t about false promises. This is about giving your loved one the best possible chance at cognitive recovery through evidence-based functional medicine, personalized care, and unwavering compassion.

NOTE: Our program is based on functional and integrative medicine, in partnership with Apollo Health, founded by Dr. Dale Bredesen, MD (author of The End of Alzheimer’s). Dr. Bredesen has been directly involved in recent scientific studies and clinical trials with Alzheimer’s patients using the ReCODE (Reversing Cognitive Decline) program.

In two recent clinical trials, 75% of participants improved in one study, and 84% improved in another—with many reversing cognitive decline. Importantly, there is currently no prescribed drug available that can achieve this.

Our 12-month ReCODE and functional medicine program is fully individualized, designed to give Alzheimer’s patients the best possible chance of improving—and in many cases, reversing—cognitive decline.

Transparency is important. While the majority of participants improved, results vary:

  • About 8% continued to decline

  • About 15% remained stable

  • Outcomes are typically better for those with mild to moderate Alzheimer’s compared to severe cases.

That said, there have been remarkable cases even among patients with severe Alzheimer’s (for example, those scoring in the single digits on the MoCA—Montreal Cognitive Assessment, where normal adult scores are 27–30). Some of these patients, who had lost the ability to walk or speak coherently, regained enough function through ReCODE to walk again, converse with loved ones, and even recognize spouses or children.

However, recovery in severe cases is more challenging, and it is not realistic to expect a return to “normal” cognition or MoCA scores above 25.
