Richard Johnson, MD: Insulin Resistance is an Early Alzheimer's Indicator #diabetes #obesity #doctor
Dr. Richard Johnson argues that early changes in people who develop Alzheimer’s include brain insulin resistance, reduced mitochondrial ATP production, and inflammation — which mirror the biological effects of fructose. He suggests fructose (primarily from sugar and sugary beverages) could contribute to Alzheimer’s because fructose causes insulin resistance, mitochondrial dysfunction, and stimulates inflammation; he also references a direct relationship between sugar intake and worse memory.
