A photo of Bill Gates allegedly endorsing a separate picture showing a honey mixture for the purported neuro honey blend and Brain Honey pills product.
Bill Gates never endorsed Brain Honey or anything having to do with honey and brain health.

In March 2026, online users searched for Bill Gates’ Brain Honey — as well as Brain Honey pills reviews — to locate information about an alleged “neuro honey blend” recipe to reverse Alzheimer’s disease, dementia and brain fog. Those users looked for more details after viewing scam marketing videos initially promoting a supposed honey recipe for memory loss, followed by the reveal of a miracle product in the form of Brain Honey capsules.

In short, Gates never created or endorsed Brain Honey or any special Alzheimer’s cure. Scammers created deepfake AI and fully-AI depictions of Gates, Steve Martin, Martin Short, Savannah Guthrie, Samuel L. Jackson, Chris Hemsworth and others to allege they provided positive Brain Honey reviews involving a “neuro honey blend” recipe. No evidence supports Brain Honey or honey of any kind as a miracle product for memory loss.

An investigation of this product appears below in a YouTube video from Jordan Liles, titled, “Bill Gates’ Brain Honey? Fake Brain Honey Reviews Featured in Alzheimer’s Cure Internet Scam.” After that, look for a transcript from my Brain Honey YouTube video. I advise victims of this scam to report fraud to the FTC and to read up on NIA-funded Alzheimer’s and dementia clinical trials.

Brain Honey supplements. If you’re looking up Brain Honey reviews, Brain Honey supplements, scam or legit, Brain Honey Steve Martin, or Brain Honey Bill Gates, this is something I’m seeing going around online. It’s a bottle of pills. It’s black. It says Brain Honey Advanced Support for memory, focus, and mental clarity. That’s what the bottle says.

And there’s scam marketing going around for this product. I’m not saying the product itself is a scam. I am saying, however, I would not buy this ever, and that it looks like it’s something that does nothing compared to the miracles they’re going to claim it has something to do with. And so you maybe saw some of the scam marketing like I’m about to show you here. This is a fake CNN article that I saw going around on a scam website. It says, “In a video, expert in brain health reveals ‘evil protein’ is literally killing the memory of 200 million Americans.” And “evil protein” is there in quotes. And it’s got Steve Martin here.

So let’s hit play on this, see exactly what they’re trying to pitch, and I’ll break down how you know this is something you should stay far away from. Brain Honey supplements, Brain Honey reviews, and this video is going to have deepfake AI visuals with AI-generated audio. Deepfake visuals meaning manipulated lip movement with AI-generated audio. No doctors, hospitals, universities, or famous people have ever endorsed or said a good thing about Brain Honey supplements, Brain Honey capsules. So, anyone you see here who’s famous, they never talked about it. Don’t believe that they did.

“My friend Robin Williams died because of Alzheimer’s and I thought I would be the next when I started to forget daily things like names or where I left my things. I thought it was part of aging.” Ok. Robin Williams met his demise in a very sad way. They just said from Alzheimer’s—that is not—I, unless he had it before he passed away, that is not true. “But my doctor claimed it wasn’t. That’s why you should never ignore the first signs because just a few months after I noticed daily forgetfulness, I got lost on my way home. Thank God today my memory is restored again and I feel sharper than I was in my 30s.” “I’m sorry you’ve been through that. So now you’re recovered?” “Yes.” “How did you overcome such a dramatic situation?”

And just before I continue, please hit the like button down below, the thumbs up button. That will tell Google and YouTube my video has value and credibility and then people might be able to find my video and avoid the scam marketing for Brain Honey capsules, which again is a black bottle. It’s going around with Bill Gates’s name, Brain Honey and Bill Gates. And it says on the bottle, “Advanced Support for memory, focus, and mental clarity, 60 capsules, dietary supplement.” And you can try to find information about this anywhere you want about the founder. Who’s the founder of this supposed company, this bottled product? Where’s the staff? Where is the facility where they actually place the pills into the bottle? Why can’t you find any of that information? Come to your own conclusion.

“Well, I was told I was in the early stages of cognitive decline. Doctors warned me it would soon evolve to Alzheimer’s. They gave me no hope of recovery. The only thing they did was prescribe medications like Aricept and Namenda. They only made me feel sedated and not myself. Yet, the Alzheimer’s symptoms just kept rotting my brain from the inside out. I really thought I was going to end up not even knowing who I was, like my friend Robin. But a common friend of ours has reached out to me. He lost his father to Alzheimer’s a few years ago, and he invested millions on research to find something accessible and effective that could actually reverse memory loss.” “That’s amazing. May I ask who this friend was?” “Bill Gates. Through the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, they donated hundreds of millions of dollars to uncover something that doesn’t rely on expensive drugs, something anyone can do at home without side effects and without spending much money.”

So, let’s just talk about that really quick. First off, Martin Short and Steve Martin are not going to talk that long without making at least one joke. That—that’s not believable. So, that’s one thing I noticed. Second, they talked about how Bill Gates has something to do with this and that he’s in a lab trying to come up with ways to formulate this. And then Steve Martin, the AI version, deepfake AI version of Steve Martin says it’s something you can do at home. He’s trying to make you think there’s a recipe that they’re going to reveal.

And that is the classic scam thing that you see online with these medicinal products. They don’t tell you at the beginning of the video here that I’m watching, “This is going to be a bottle of pills called Brain Honey,” because if you say, “Oh, it’s a bottle of supplements,” you’re going to click out. Probably you’re not going to believe it. But they’re telling you at the beginning of the video it’s going to be a recipe to hook you. It’s a lie to hook you into watching the entire video. That’s all that is.

And there are thousands of medicinal product scams online just like this. If you’re wondering why celebrities, Bill Gates, whoever, don’t sue the people behind this, it’s probably because it’s not worth their time and effort. There are so many scams out there, but also it might be difficult to find the people behind these scams. It looks like Brazil, big surprise. It normally is with these sorts of things. Brain Honey is not going to do anything amazing. It will not reverse Alzheimer’s, reverse dementia, clear up brain fog, anything like that. This is a product that will not do anything amazing at all.

It is something that, in my opinion, was probably created to try to sell it to people based upon claims that are not true, that then maybe there are subscription charges, the money-back guarantee isn’t honored, a bunch of stuff, right, that I see all the time with these sorts of things. I’m not saying those things are going to happen here, but it would not surprise me if it did. “Through this research, they developed a simple at-home protocol that scientists describe as something that flushes out the ‘rust’ that builds up in the brain and causes cognitive decline over the years. This so-called ‘brain rust’ is cleared away using a natural three-ingredient recipe based on raw honey combined with two other super common and inexpensive ingredients. Thanks to this natural protocol, I got rid of everything that was clouding my mind.”

Honey is not magical. Honey is tasty. It’s nice. You can put it in different foods. It’s great, but it doesn’t have miracle properties. The reason why they’re doing this with honey—scammers choose something for their medicinal product scams all the time. They claim that there’s a special ingredient in your pantry or maybe your freezer or your refrigerator somewhere in your kitchen, your house, right? And that if you just use that with some other ingredients, it’s going to perform amazing miracles. And they’ve done it with all different sorts of herbs, spices, fruits, vegetables, meats—turmeric was a big one, pink salt. So they just come up with something that they think people who are easily influenced, manipulated, whatever word you want to use, will fall for and they just go with it.

“In fact, you made a full free video explaining how to do this easy protocol at home. And I’d like to ask you to roll at least a short clip of it so people at home can learn how to do it. Can we do that?” “How could I say no? Of course. So if you or someone you love has been struggling with forgetfulness or even signs of Alzheimer’s, please watch this video now. Production, roll the ‘Honey Protocol.'” “This is the neuro honey blend that’s been helping Hollywood legends reverse memory loss and brain fog in just 21 days.”

Why do they keep having this Savannah Guthrie thing and these scams? Read the room, scammers. Do you have any idea that she’s in the news and—like, like she’s been featured a lot? So is Dr. Peter Attia, who was featured in certain documents released by the federal government that people have talked about a lot—files, if you know what I’m talking about. And lots of other stuff. Lots of other people who maybe it’s not the best time to be showing them. Bill Gates as well. I mean, there’s some other stuff with him in the files, but as Charles Barkley would say, “Not a good time.”

“Over 6.7 million Americans are currently taking prescription drugs like Aricept and Namenda, medications that cost thousands per year and come with devastating side effects. But now, this natural protocol is becoming a phenomenon on social media.” “This neuro honey blend is extraordinary. In just two weeks, I could remember my lines again.” Him drinking this thing looks like honey. Looks like it’s completely AI. The hat says like “Gator” or “Gators.” It’s supposed to be the Florida Gators, but obviously it doesn’t look right. He—his hat, the glass, everything in the video looks like it’s completely fake.

Watch. “… without struggle, and by the end of 90 days, my mind was sharper than it had been in a decade. And no, these weren’t those expensive brain drugs everyone talks about. As an actor who spent decades perfecting my craft, I would never risk my cognitive function on synthetic medications. It was all thanks to this ancient memory blend I take before breakfast and dinner. The transformation you’re seeing on screen happened because of this natural protocol made with two simple ingredients that have been used for centuries. You can use it without worry. It’s natural, free from side effects, and you don’t have to give up your daily routine. When I discovered I had a genetic predisposition to Alzheimer’s in 2022, I knew I had to take action immediately. It wasn’t just about my career. It was about being present for my kids and not putting my family through what so many others have suffered. I prevented cognitive decline completely with this neuro honey blend before any symptoms even appeared. No prescription drugs, no invasive treatments, just this natural protocol.

Today we have Bill Gates, founder of Microsoft and co-chair of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, here to discuss this revolutionary memory restoration method that his foundation has been”—that that’s AI him looking at that big beaker of honey—”researching for years. Bill, can you explain how this ancient Himalayan blend is reversing decades of memory loss and eliminating brain fog in just three weeks?”

So, we don’t need to watch any more than that. Really, this is a scam. They’re claiming Brain Honey someone out there is going to have miracle properties to reverse Alzheimer’s, reverse dementia, and that it’s been backed by celebrities, doctors, hospitals, universities, all that. It’s all lies. There is no recipe. Brain Honey, I can tell you from looking at lots of different online scam marketing, this is not a product you want to buy. I’m not calling the product a scam. I’m saying there’s scam marketing. And that means why would you buy this if they’re lying to you? If someone’s lying to you, why would you hand them your money? Doesn’t make any sense. You can’t even find legitimate marketing out there. Like, comment, subscribe, join button, and thank you so much for watching.
