“improve your insulin sensitivity to improve your brain health” The first thing that people need to know is that your brain 🥰 ketones. Even in an ocean of glucose, your brain will preferentially utilize ketones.

100%. I have been saying something similar years back when trying to Pitch this idea to investors. Sadly me trying to say the migriane and Alzheimer actually may have quite a lot in common, a starving brain, was not always well received. Medicine has become so compartmentalised.

Prof does the Randle Cycle occur in the brain ? does over ingestion of energy either fat or carb do the same thing in the brain ?

I had migraines on and off since I was 14. It’s definitely certain foods that trigger them now. Fermented foods and nuts that would be considered Keto are triggers. Not sure how this all ties in to the statement above. I am sure tho if I went full carnivore I would be better off

Thank you for bringing attention to our manuscript @LDel_Moro! As we write in the paper, based on the available data, the Mediterranean-like diets with a low glycemic index are the best dietary solution for prevention of both diseases in the long term 🧠

🚨 Levels of NAD+ differentiate the Alzheimer’s brain from healthy brains 🧠 This molecule sits at the center of energy metabolism in the brain Preclinical experiments, in parallel with human brain data, suggest that approaches to boost NAD levels could prevent (or reverse?) Alzheimer’s disease These include ketogenic diets, resistance and aerobic exercise, and more. For details, nuances, references, and tips, see the letter linked at the end of the associated thread 🧵 👇

More than one billion individuals around the world suffer from migraines each year. Despite being one of the most common neurological disorders on the planet, many troubled by migraines continue to suffer. Lack of efficacious treatment options is exactly what led our most recent interview guest of The Metabolic Link, Dr Elena Gross, Ph.D. | Migraine Expert to better understand this common disease and its underlying link to metabolism.

🚨STUDY: Just ONE Egg a Week Lowers Alzheimer’s Risk by -47% And Reduces Amyloid Plagues in the Brain The benefit is largely attributed to choline, omega-3s, and lutein—key nutrients for brain health. Alzheimer’s disease now affects 6.9 million Americans over 65. Eat eggs.

Why Alzheimer’s is a midlife disease, not a disease of old age | Lisa Mosconi, Ph.D. (Dr. Lisa Mosconi) This clip is from episode # 381 of The Drive which was released on 1/26/26. In the full episode, we cover: -What preclinical Alzheimer’s disease looks like in women: insights from advanced brain imaging into metabolic and structural changes that precede symptoms -How Alzheimer’s compares with other dementias: differences in prevalence, underlying pathology, symptom progression, and the challenges of accurate diagnosis -Hormone therapy and brain health: what the evidence suggests about menopausal hormone therapy, the legacy of the WHI, why timing and formulation matter, and how SERMs may offer a targeted approach -Reducing risk across midlife: genetics (including APOE4), modifiable lifestyle factors, sleep, metabolism, mood, and emerging therapies such as GLP-1 agonists within a long-term brain health framework Listen (Ep. # 381) to the full episode on my website ( or your favorite podcast player.

The human brain is supposed to be our most protected organ—but startling new research suggests otherwise A 2024 study from São Paulo, Brazil, revealed that microplastics are accumulating in the brain at ten times the rate of other organs, bypassing the blood-brain barrier through inhalation and the olfactory pathway Even more alarming, individuals with Alzheimer’s disease were up to 20 times more likely to have microplastics in their brain compared to those without the disease This groundbreaking discovery highlights a strong link between airborne microplastics, neuroinflammation, and the progression of neurodegenerative diseases

😡“ ALZHEIMER’S is a PHYSICIAN CAUSED disease” 🧐 If you don’t know, your brain is made up of a material called MYELIN. It is literally made of cholesterol. It is how your brain stays healthy and speeds up communication. When you take statins it removes that and then what do you get, Alzheimer’s!

Creatine supplementation at ~10 grams/day may be a targeted way to support brain function in older adults While muscle tissues become saturated at 5 grams/day, surpassing this threshold allows more creatine to reach the brain and raise brain phosphocreatine levels Higher phosphocreatine availability supports cognitive performance specifically under brain stressors like aging, sleep deprivation, and neurodegenerative disease And because aging places ongoing metabolic demands on the brain, this additional phosphocreatine reserve may help support brain energy metabolism when it’s under strain

🚨 GEOENGINEERING & CHEMTRAILS LINKED TO BRAIN DAMAGE - DOCTOR WARNS “IT GOES STRAIGHT TO YOUR HEAD.” “They’re spraying nano-aluminum from the atmosphere. It enters through your nose, goes straight to your brain, the same region hit hardest by Alzheimer’s.” He said it would trigger an explosion of neurological disease like Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, dementia and that’s exactly what’s happening. If this is what’s raining from above, what else are they surrounding us with and what’s it doing to our bodies and brains?

Does insulin shape your brain health as you age? You’ll find out if you watch this conversation… Today’s guest believes most people don’t realise it’s happening until the damage is already there. Dr Annette is a doctor who treats chronic conditions and has spent over 20 years helping patients with complex situations that weren’t getting better. Her work focuses on metabolism and brain health and what they really mean for long-term health. She explained to me about the “trash” the brain can’t clear when insulin stays high and why people can be two decades behind in brain repair! (something I didn’t realise was happening silently for years)

Dr. Annette Bosworth (Dr. Boz) just issued the ultimate keto acceleration protocol on Diary of a CEO:“ The Sardine Challenge: Eat THREE cans of sardines per day for 3 days.” She’s been strict keto for 10 years and says this is the fastest way she’s ever seen to reach deep ketosis. Real patient results she’s witnessed: → Gray hair growing back with color → Brain fog, depression & early Alzheimer’s markers dramatically improving → Blood pressure normalizing → Literally rescued her own mother from the edge of death Her exact words: “Excess insulin is the maker of chronic disease — cancer, Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, hypertension. When you reverse it with proper keto, you won’t even have to try very hard.” Who’s accepting the 3-Day Sardine Challenge to flip the switch?
