Just to think that Alzheimer patients are put into institutions that feed them white sandwiches, starches and sugary fruit juices - a diet that not only accelerates the disease but also shortens their life. As a society which aspires to be humane and caring, we have quite a long to go.
My dad fixed my mother's coffee every morning, and he put 5 heaping sugars in her coffee every morning. My mom died at 80 from Alzheimer’s. My mom was a small woman. Dad was almost 3 years older than mom, and he died from Alzheimer’s at 86. I'm hopeful that I won't die from Alzheimer’s since I stopped sugar and grains for the most part.
Well, beware of the fructose more than the sugar or grains, although it's a great start to eliminate most of those two. I think the 5 heaping tsps was more the problem than say, 1/2 tsp, something to just reduce bitterness, etc. But with fructose, I won't even trust sweet fruits because I've watched what they do (with a glucometer) to my blood glucose level. That being said, I did abuse myself for many years with sweets and drove the problem to "nearly irreversible". Once you are in that level, believe me, you have visceral fat galore, including in that bulging liver, and nothing is going to work right again. Ever. It can be reversed unless you are a hopelessly abused person.
@@zeppelinmexicano Sucrose (aka table sugar) is a disaccharide composed of glucose and fructose. So if you are eating regular sugar, you are getting fructose.

The head of the cardiac department at a major health company told me that we could close 95% of the hospitals in this country if people would stop putting garbage in their bodies. Btw im 63 no health issues and perfect bloodwork numbers. Ive been off sugar, processed foods, sodas, alcohol and most carbs for 30 years. Its not that hard to eat right once you get accustomed to it. Most groceries have their produce, meat, dairy and frozen veggies around the perimeter of the store. Buy as little as possible out on the middle aisles and youll be ok.
Glad to see you establishment doctors finally STARTING to catch up with the holistic (functional medicine doctors) who have preached for decades that the amount of highly processed sugars we are consuming since the 70's is responsible for all the chronic diseases that are epidemic in western societies.
I utterly disagree with you regarding the salt. If you're eating properly, you will require salt. If you don't consume salt you will end up with cramps. If you eat too much salt you will get thirsty. Also if you drink a glass of water before a meal, you're just diluting the acid in your stomach that should be digesting your food.
@@toni4729 I was always aware of eating too much salt then as I transitioned to Ketovoire I eat plenty but I have never used table nacl, obv its just junk salt in junk food but it also is detrimental with carbs!
This is tricky. Carnivore diet people need extra salt. There is evidence(I heard it on TH-cam) that a salty meal or snack with carbs makes glucose more readily turn into fructose.
This is very fascinating. When I used to be a vegan my mind was always in a fog. I couldn’t quite think clearly. Then when I changed my diet and added eggs and dairy I felt better. Eventually I started eating meats and eventually converted back to the standard American diet. Once again, my brain was always in the fog. I felt more irritable and sluggish than ever. I slowly started to cut out sugar, carbs, and even some veggies. I felt more alert, and no sluggishness. Now I’m 100% carnivore diet and I have never felt so good in my life. Especially my mental clarity is at where it should be, for a 28 year old. I do believe diet really plays a huge role in our overall health.
@@michaelbarry8373 Don't waste your time with somebody who just found an excuse to eat meat and nothing else. Don't you know? People are looking for good excuses to justify their bad habits and diet.
Johnson never said a thing about "fat", so why did the interviewer point to it as a problem. It should be blatantly obvious if you want to reduce sugar and other carbs the best way to do that is to eat more healthy and satiating fat. Fat and cholesterol provides building material for nervous tissue and the hormones that contol our health. Fat satiates and provices anti-inflamatory ketones.
@@XeLTH-cam Correct. Heart disease and atherosclerosis is a disease of the modern world, following the advent of vegetable oils, and processed wheat products. They are unknown in population who eat all meat, blubber, blood and milk.

And he did mention fat because he said keto diets are excellent but he didn't feel that people have to be on a strict keto diet.
Fruits and carrots have been cultivated for many decades now to be sweeter. When I was a child an apple tasted like an apple, it was sweet but it had a apple flavor. Now apples taste like sugar bombs! I'm 61.
I had to give up fruit, as I noticed with it being singularly what I ate in the morning for breakfast, within a half hour, I would be sunk low and ready for a nap. The sugars of the fruit affected me, so they weren't difficult to give up.
Here is a ChatGPT summary: - We are facing a serious crisis with Alzheimer's as baby boomers age into their 80s and 90s. - An article in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition suggests that Alzheimer's could be the result of our bodies going wrong in an evolutionary survival mechanism. - The key villain is fructose, a form of sugar found in high fructose corn syrup and fruits. - Fructose tricks the body into thinking it's hungry and reduces the energy we actively use. - This leads to neuroinflammation and starves the brain of energy. - Amyloid plaques and tau tangles are a defensive mechanism the brain is putting forward to protect itself. - Eating excessive amounts of sugar, high fructose corn syrup, and high glycemic carbs can increase the risk of Alzheimer's. - Alzheimer's is a potential epidemic and David Perlmutter, Dale Bredesen, and Maria Nagel are authors researching the topic. - Fructose consumption can lead to a decrease in blood supply to certain regions of the brain, such as the cortex and hippocampus, which are involved in self-control. - At the same time, other areas of the brain, such as the visual cortex and anterior cingulate, increase in blood flow. - This matches the areas affected by Alzheimer's, suggesting that fructose consumption may be a contributing factor. - Low sugar, low carb diets, keto diets, and intermittent fasting can help to reduce the effects of fructose and potentially prevent Alzheimer's.

My mother died of Alzheimers and she ate very little as in she had a simple “ healthy “ diet. She hardly consumed any fruit and had a very low sugar intake ? I understand that these matters are complex - every step forward is great against this terrible disease.
I guess the 'simple, healthy diet' may be the culprit, potentially causing suboptimal nutrients, and/or hormones for the body as per Dale Bredesen suggestion of the causes (inflammatory, infections, suboptimal nutrients /hormones, genetics and toxins). Need clinical lab to check on HCY, B12/Folate, cobalt, ferritin, vitamins, thyroid hormones, hsCRP, IR, HbA1c%, hsTnI, etc
@@fergusfitzgerald977my mum with alzheimers also took anti depressany some years before her alz diagnosis. I have heard several being depressed before alz. I think there is a heavy link and wish she never took those pills😢
Some people who get too much salt need to cut back. Watch the junk/processed food. Salt hides there. I don't really buy the "good salt/bad salt" thing. Salt is salt. Sugar is sugar. It's not "better for you" because it has some flavor or dirt in it.
Excessive fructose intake didn't happen for the vast majority of people prior to the early 20th century. High fructose corn syrup didn't exist until about 45 or so years ago. If the fructose hypothesis is right, we should see fewer Alzheimer's patients prior to the wide availability of fructose in the modern world.
No mention was given to the ability of the mitochondria to change their energy source from glucose to ketones. Ketones are able to cross the blood brain barrier and provide additional energy for the mitochondria in areas that need it most…. Being able to achieve a glucose ketone index of 1, in itself indicates that the Insulin level will be low, and allow the body to produce short chain fatty acids from the fat stores. I was interested to learn that some areas of the brain need it, and some areas don’t.
Fructose was the only thing that helped my ptsd after many diet switches. People can draw science now whole day and no one will be able to convince me it is bad, cuz nothing else hepls me.
Remember as mentioned, high glycaemic index foods are refined carbohydrates eg flour, white rice, white bread, pasta. These are broken down in the body in the same way as the table sugar in our food. Surprisingly, small slice of white bread has the energy equivalence of about 2 teaspoons of sugar.
But they are starches/glucose not fructose (except for perhaps the added Sugar in bread). Not saying that these products should be consumed in excess but fructose is so much worse than glucose.
@@brendansheehan7714 Good point Brendan. The reason I mentioned this was that there are many comments about (table) sugar, and as far as the body is concerned, refined starches are problematic. It got a brief mention in the video, but is often overlooked by people whilst demonising sugar.
You're 100% correct!! People don't realize this. You have to remove refined carbohydrates as well as sugar to fix the problem. I have kept my weight down to 115 for 5 years by removing these foods from my diet. It reduces inflammation which is the root cause for almost all diseases. My arthritis and gingivitis have gone away. I reversed my carotid artery disease. I also exercise, walking 30 minutes 5 days a week and weight bearing exercises. I'll be 70 years old in June.
@@aaronsinger Why are they worthless ? It sems a fair point. I could also document my wt loss thru low carb, but my motivation would certainly *not* be bragging, rather, to share my journey to help others.
I’m not vegan nor vegetarian, but I consume fruit regularly fruit as my grandpas did, they never suffered any medical condition even at their 90’s. Seasonal and local fruit is packed with electrolytes and minerals, most important micro nutrients.
I agree 👍💯. I was a vegetarian then vegan which both is high carb even if it's so called "good" carbs on and off for 20+ years. It wasn't till I discovered Carnivore diet did all my digestion, achy joints, and muscle tone improved tremendously. So many people have turned their life around being at least hiper carnivore 70% if not 100% to have experience better health. Alot have been former vegans. Vegan can work for many years but eventually it causes depletion of essential nutrients we get from animal meat. I think both diets eliminate the junk food if you do that which in itself helps. But listen to your body and eat what we have eaten and what grew our brains for 3 million years. Do your research and use your brain and common sense.
Try to use your brain, what did Neandertals eat ?, meat?, yes, bread?,no they had no bread, sugar, no, few berries, nuts maybe autum time, and less sweet than todays breeded sorts.
Alzheimer's is preventable. We should just avoid carbohydrates as much as possible. I think the average good thinker already is aware of this. Mostly grains and sugar.
yes and saturated fat and trasn fat in arteries too are avoidable. by living 100 year old on plants. but why worry about carbs when your blood cant flow cause animal fat are solidifed in our arteries! long live carnist! carb are evil! dont eat a brocoli youll die! even less a salad! that has less pesticide tha soy give to cattle
@@classicgameplay10 That's kind of the truth. Maybe you should keep your opinions to yourself until you've guided both of your parents to their death from Alzheimer's.
@@toneyniko99 its ridiculous and insane to think that carbs can be avoided, also thats the cause of Alzheimer when literally every culture in the world has eaten carbs in all times.

I second that, I know a lot of elderly who ended up with dementia/alzheimers, in two cases both husband and wife were effected - which indicates lifestyle factors. I observed on common denominator and large amount of sugar/high carb diet and not enough nutrient dense foods with protein and good fats. One woman, an elderly neighbor, had these wounds on her legs which would not heal, possibly undiagnosed diabetes, doctors would prescribe all kinds of creams that did nothing, she ended up with dementia.
Alzheimer's is a type of dementia. Insulin resistance precedes type 2 diabetes, but Mild Cognative Impairment is what precedes most forms of dementia. "Dementia" is merely an umbrella term that covers Lewy Body, Parkinson's, Vascular, Alzheimer's, Frontotemporal, Huntington's, etc...
I include coconut oil in the cooking fats I use (beef tallow, butter, coconut oil, lard, bacon grease and rarely olive oil). But is there a minimum _"adequate"_ amount to consume?
@@thornados4969: _"Too much saturated fat oil causes high cholesterol ..."_ No, that's the old paradigm. That's what Ancel Keys promoted, but we now know he lied. Consuming saturated fat does not necessarily cause high cholesterol in the blood. Also, high cholesterol isn't the problem. The problem is the *size* and *oxidation* of the LDL particles in the blood.
@@KenJackson_US "Consuming saturated fat does not necessarily cause high cholesterol in the blood.". Any study to support your comment? Mine is not only from research and clinical trials but also the recent ones for experiment of people feed with LCHF diet. One of the many studies published in 2021 concluded "The current trial shows that feeding healthy, young women a ketogenic LCHF diet rich in saturated fatty acids for four weeks results in profound alterations in the blood lipid profile. In comparison with a control diet recommended by the Swedish National Food Agency, eating LCHF induced an increase in LDL cholesterol, a leading cause of atherosclerosis."
@@thornados4969: _"Any study to support your comment?"_ Yes. For example: Saturated Fats and Health: A Reassessment and Proposal for Food-Based Recommendations: JACC State-of-the-Art Review, August 2020. The doctors that I follow claim the studies that supposedly show saturated fat is dangerous tend to be based on low quality questionnaire data. *Thornados:* _"... eating LCHF induced an increase in LDL cholesterol, a leading cause of atherosclerosis."_ That's the old paradigm. Yes, it may increase LDL, but people with lower LDL actually have higher all-cause mortality. The problem isn't total cholesterol or LDL. The problem is the *size* of the LDL particles and their *oxidation.* I'm not clear on the problems posed by industrial vegetable seed oils (soybean, sunflower, safflower, canola, corn), but they (especially linoleic acid) are apparently oxidized in their high-temperature production, which causes LDL apoB proteins to become oxidized.
Smart move. I too am minimizing sugar exposure. Look for the interview with Dr. Joon Lee on "What's Making You Sick." She claims most chronic health problems are involve sugar, excessive stress, and loss of testosterone/estrogen.
It's not a matter of _"torture",_ but mindset, @@mikesalcito4230. I occasionally buy a tub of blueberries and thoroughly enjoy them and once in a long while some other fruit. But I don't miss them much. And I'm delighted to know I'm not consuming fructose.
@@grahamedwards6824 I agree. i think avocado and olives sneak in under that definition. most fruits have been manipulated to increase sugar and are the worst especially as a snack.
I.f plus fasting to reset plus ketosis plus salt to taste rather than processed foods poisoned with salt and sugar. Avoid any drinks that mimic soda and have aspartame. If you have the odd treat at holiday or birthday so be it. As long as it doesn't slide you down the slippery processed sugary slope. Also I find I eat meat which can be expensive but not nearly as expensive as junk plus health costs. Great video well explained . Type 3 diabetics are growing in numbers so it makes sense to try and avoid becoming a statistic. 😊
high fructose corn syrup You already connected Alzheimers to sodas. I suggest manufacturers of food products use it partly because it is easier to use in baking like in sodas but also because it appears independently in the label so it LOOKS like there is less sugar in the product.
The real reason they use it is because it is cheap. This is at least partially because the corn it's made from is subsidized by your tax dollars. Crazy, huh? We're paying to live in a dementiagenic and obeseogenic food environment.
I think four oranges and two tangerines is a little on the high side, but if they are real oranges, they come with fiber which will slow the absorption of the fructose. It's not near as bad as a couple bottles of soda a day.
Humans living in tropical climates have been eating high fructose diets for thousands of years. Fruit is not the enemy. What has changed in the last 50-80 years. fruit is the same. I a vegetarian has eaten at least 4 to 6 pieces of fruit a day for the last 50 years. I'm healthy no sign of diabetes. Fruit is not a problem. Whole foods are not a problem. Processed foods are the problem.
Fruits have changed a lot in the last fifty years. Where have you been? Things have got much bigger and sweeter and we now it fruit all year round when we used to eat it only for a few weeks a year. The trouble is, now, it's available to us all the time when it's shipped to us from every part of the world before it's ever ripe. Once fruit ripened once a year, now, it's grown four times a year and sent everywhere. It was designed to fatten us up when there was no other food to eat. No people are pigging out on it all the time. You may not think it's harming you now but be careful. It's not designed for year-round eating.

I agree with you. Fruit is not the problem. The problem is glucose and carbohydrates causing the Alzheimers. Most fruits are low on the glycemic index and because they contain fiber, you do not become insulin resistant(diabetic)on fruit. If you consume fruit juice or high fructose corn syrup, yes, you will have insulin resistance because it contains low fiber and can result in Alzheimers.
Fructose and Glucose are inter-convertible. Sucrose consists of glucose and fructose bound together. The vast majority of the sugar we consume is sucrose and so we get equal amounts from sucrose. The hydrolysis of starch produces glucose.
I think he mentioned it “Nature wants us to be fat”. I’d also recommend Dale Bredesen’s books “End of Alzheimer’s”. which talks about the effect of diet. Rhonda Patrick is also a great resource on TH-cam and emphasises the important of exercise. For your wife, Mindy Pelz has lots of resources on intermittent fasting for women and how to make it work with female hormones. Good luck to your and your wife. She is lucky to have you 😊

Consuming fructose in high quantities from ORGANIC fruits will prevent neurological diseases. Highly processes sugars like corn syrup, consumed in high quantities, will create neurological diseases.
But my friend has alzheimers, and for years previously she was self-managing a seizure disorder because she had read that sugar was a risk factor for seizures, so she had cut sugar out of her diet almost completely.
@@lannguyen-pu1db But those grains are sugar ON THE WAY 5 MINUTES after chewing only a spritz of amylase coming from salivary glands. Look, this is a chemistry test, not name that Tune.

like puting animal corpse and their secreiton in my body? i wonder why i dont digest like a calf. maybe im not a calf? why drink overproteinated and lower fat milk from another species. put diesel in your gas tank !
perhaps our bodies need to eat the foods in season, as the farmer gets more busy in spring gradually until the beginning winter berry's and fruits are more plentiful, yet mostly the farmers energy needs also rise until the crops are off, burning calories, and also eating fresh fruits with live enzymes. we make the mistake of trying to heat process or freeze fruit for winter in large amounts and where now the fructose has no enzymes to digest and when people spend more time indoors, instead our winter diets change for what is in season, like the old ways we ate less meat and fat in summer because we did not havre refrigeration. but as soon as temperatures are below freezing is when the livestock was processed, or farmers or pioneers whent hunting, then ice fishing in the middle of the winter. by the time of the end of February most apple storage ran out, and perhaps beginning of march we starved, or simply fasted. the problem of agriculture now is we try and process the fruits, destroying the enzymes and other properties, but also making the fructose more available all year. and also now farmers sit on tractors getting little exercise. where once the excess fruit was fed to the livestock, chickens and ducks. as we could only can so many glass jars of fruit where sadly that practice also added extra sugar.
The problem here does not seem to be the fructose in itself. If you eat like a bear, be prepared to go into hibernation like one. An extended period where your body feeds on stored energy. Knowing when, what and why you eat is the reason you're going to stay in health or not, all things being equal.
The fructose causing behavior to occur is the problem. You seem to think food selection is left-brained but it's actually heavily hormonally based, just like sex impulses.
This hypothesis seems to make a lot of sense. I would recommend the book on mitochondria by Dr. Lee Know, too. The same thing causing Alzheimer's is also causing Parkinson's and MS. I would say that while fructose and sugar makes sense, he needs to expand on exactly how salt is also a culprit. Were bears loading up on salt when it was time to hibernate? He just kind of threw that in there without much to back it up.
The same reason some can smoke 🚬 cigarettes their entire lives and not get cancer. Your risk of getting cancer ♋️ is high but does not guarantee you'll get cancer ♋️. 😳
I highly recommend Dr Dale Bredesen's books on stopping AD and he also has a new book about "survivors" who have overcome AD with diet, exercise, and supplements. It's super inspiring!
Unfortunately, I can't recommend Dr. Bredesen's work. I read his published articles and there is nothing remotely scientific in them. They're a series of reports about individual patients. None of them were formally diagnosed with Alzheimer's or met any of the criteria for diagnosis. Mainly they were anxious people worried about their memory. Which almost by definition means they don't have Alzheimer's - people with Alzheimer's don't recognize that they have cognitive deficits. in fact, getting an Alzheimer's patient to a doctor for evaluation is one of life's great caregiving challenges. When I heard about those new anti-amyloid medications for early Alzheimer's, involving IV infusions every 2 weeks and MRIs every month, I just had to laugh.
I wonder if the ‘high salt diet’ that he says causes this condition (along with high fructose and sugar foods) is applicable on a very low to no carb diet.
If you eat meat and fish you will need salt because meat and fish don't have salt in it. The salt was in the blood. We absolutely require salt, we can't make it but we can make glucose so we don't have to eat it. Also, we don't need any fructose.
We need 1500 mg salt per day to survive, along with potassium, magnesium and calcium. The reason why we were brainwashed to avoid added salt at the table is because of the overabundance of bleached salt added to every processed food, like breads, cereals, junk food, fast food...
I think he may have been referring to processed meals/foods and snacks (eg, chips) that are high in salt, more than we need. Maybe the combination of too much salt and too many carbs - very addictive and we want more and more, tend to overeat.
While I appreciate this discussion it frustrates me to hear it veer off point a bit @ ~15:50-ish when they lump “hamburger” in with the sugar & carbs. It’s the bun, the seed oils used in cooking fast food type burgers and not the saturated animal fats that are the problems They then again use the word ‘fat’ without nuance between saturated & un-saturated A century of ketogenic research has shown the effectiveness of fat as a primary dietary component *when it comprises 80-ish percent* and carbs are restricted to 15-20% of energy needs-i.e. low-carb + high [saturated] fat But, I *am* glad we are learning about the sugar-alzheimers link 👍
Statins actually have a warning about cognitive decline in the paperwork that is downloadable from all of the manufacturers. Higher, protein centric keto, or a high fat ketovore approach are best. We used both for the last 11+ years of my mother's journey through ALZ.
Ted Naiman has shown its the protein that keeps you lean. What makes you fat is the energy toxicity from either excess carbs or fats. The leanest and healthiest people eat appropriate amounts of protein daily. Think about it, what are you gonna feed a end stage diabetic if they are starving. You wouldn’t feed them more carbs and certainly not a piece of lard. You feed them lean meats. Protein is what increases insulin sensitivity. Thats what will save their life.
Eating a small/moderate amount of whole fruit give you nutrients and fibre. Tick. Juice has wayyyyyy more fructose as you have got rid of the fibre, so gram for gram, you have way more fructose. Juice is a "sometimes" food treat.
#HealthCallRadioHour This question is serious. Not joking. Does expensive fructose’s health benefits outweigh the ill effects? Say in the form of the high-grades of mono-pollen raw Manuka honey from New Zealand? Or have I been subsidizing an expensive path to Alzheimer’s?
In addition to flour products, I have been advised to give up dairy products (50% of all meals), red meat, nuts (producing some harmful poisons--a natural defense mechanism), eggs (you kill a possible , bad for your karma), imported fruits (not only fructose). Starvation is the only possible option. Maybe avocados if you grow it yourself...otherwise it has been GMO-d and sprayed with various chemicals. Then you watch a video on youtube where you are advised to let go, don't worry, no more fear, no more anxiety, etc., etc., after knowing where you have come, like this universe with all it's warning signs "WHATEVER YOU DO, DON'T DO THIS OR THAT". That's not freedom...that's "tension", which leads to various diseases.

It's not that simple, just blaming fructose. There are many decades long Frutarians in perfect health with no dementia whatsoever. It's the fat blocking the insulin receptors that's a problem, leading to insuin resistance. You can eat a high fat diet, or you can eat a high glucose (fructose and/or sugar) diet, but not both at the same time.
You can’t just blame it all on fructose. Most of these people with dementia would still have the disease if they never consumed one gram of glucose in their life.

This hypothesis is problematic and flies in the face of scientific evidence that the Standard American Diet (high saturated fat) drives endotoxemia in the blood stream that then ends up inside amyloid plaque in the brain.
How does this fit with the many studies that showed that diets with and without sugar if calories equated, have exact same results? If fructose would cause a higher percentage to be converted into fat while reducing available energy generation this wouldn't be possible.
If you're talking about weight reduction any restriction works. If that's satisfactory great. We're talking about optimal Health here. That's a different rabbit hole.

Or are you listening to Doctors who have 4 hours nutrition science to recommend them.
Think about this > There is more Sugar on Earth than DIRT. Which means EVERYONE'S surrounded by it and it seems like EVERYONE has Alzheimer's etc. etc . Every person has this ONE thing in common. Ponder silently.
Fructose is worse than sugar because it goes straight to the liver and it is made with gmo corn which is another toxic poison, but yes, both are bad and should not be consumed at all, our body can make our own glucose when we need it, sugar, or anything that gets converted to glucose, is not necessary at all
Sounds like another low carb cult. Insulin resistance is way more complex than this overly simplistic fructose hypothesis. What about the 5 blue zones population longevity? What about the Okinawans that get most of their energy from tubers?
Okinawan sare lean people and they exercise, which is cruicial for the muscle mass to assist in carb metabolism. They would have a high protein and omega 3 diet (seafood). Getting energy from whole Tubers is way better than white rice, as there is also fibre.
The researcher contradicts himself on more than one occasion. My biggest pet peave is in all my years of animal research I've never met a fat, STUPID bear. They instinctually know how to eat a proper, healthy diet going into hibernation which includes fruits, nuts, greens, herbs, fatty fish and other mammals including organ meat. Gee, that sounds alot like how our human ancestors ate. No added sugars, no highly processed seed oils and no processed foods. Tip: stay out of the middle of the grocery store as much as possible and try to eat organic if you can afford it.
What about the TMAO link to AD? Forget it. It doesn't fit MY hypothesis. Let me sell books despite all evidence that contradict MY hypothesis. People love to hear stuff that supports their low carb ravings.
Just to think that Alzheimer patients are put into institutions that feed them white sandwiches, starches and sugary fruit juices - a diet that not only accelerates the disease but also shortens their life. As a society which aspires to be humane and caring, we have quite a long to go.
And lots of fruit.
They are only “put into institutions” by wealthy people. Our crummy healthcare system provides minimal assistance for dementia.
This is a huge problem. Something must be done.
Shortening life in a nursing home IS humane !
@@NineInchTyrone of course, until member of your family is out there and then it’s blue murder, right?
My dad fixed my mother's coffee every morning, and he put 5 heaping sugars in her coffee every morning. My mom died at 80 from Alzheimer’s. My mom was a small woman. Dad was almost 3 years older than mom, and he died from Alzheimer’s at 86. I'm hopeful that I won't die from Alzheimer’s since I stopped sugar and grains for the most part.
You sound like you've woken up. I don't think you will.
Good luck x
Well, beware of the fructose more than the sugar or grains, although it's a great start to eliminate most of those two. I think the 5 heaping tsps was more the problem than say, 1/2 tsp, something to just reduce bitterness, etc. But with fructose, I won't even trust sweet fruits because I've watched what they do (with a glucometer) to my blood glucose level. That being said, I did abuse myself for many years with sweets and drove the problem to "nearly irreversible". Once you are in that level, believe me, you have visceral fat galore, including in that bulging liver, and nothing is going to work right again. Ever. It can be reversed unless you are a hopelessly abused person.
@@zeppelinmexicano Sucrose (aka table sugar) is a disaccharide composed of glucose and fructose. So if you are eating regular sugar, you are getting fructose.

Glad to see you establishment doctors finally STARTING to catch up with the holistic (functional medicine doctors) who have preached for decades that the amount of highly processed sugars we are consuming since the 70's is responsible for all the chronic diseases that are epidemic in western societies.
I utterly disagree with you regarding the salt. If you're eating properly, you will require salt. If you don't consume salt you will end up with cramps. If you eat too much salt you will get thirsty. Also if you drink a glass of water before a meal, you're just diluting the acid in your stomach that should be digesting your food.

@@sue2611 Quite possibly but he should have said so. Thank you for mentioning it.
@@toni4729 I was always aware of eating too much salt then as I transitioned to Ketovoire I eat plenty but I have never used table nacl, obv its just junk salt in junk food but it also is detrimental with carbs!
This is tricky. Carnivore diet people need extra salt. There is evidence(I heard it on TH-cam) that a salty meal or snack with carbs makes glucose more readily turn into fructose.
On your last point, should we not eat soup?
This is very fascinating. When I used to be a vegan my mind was always in a fog. I couldn’t quite think clearly. Then when I changed my diet and added eggs and dairy I felt better. Eventually I started eating meats and eventually converted back to the standard American diet. Once again, my brain was always in the fog. I felt more irritable and sluggish than ever. I slowly started to cut out sugar, carbs, and even some veggies. I felt more alert, and no sluggishness. Now I’m 100% carnivore diet and I have never felt so good in my life. Especially my mental clarity is at where it should be, for a 28 year old. I do believe diet really plays a huge role in our overall health.
You were never vegan. You were plant based.
Opposite effect for me.

Johnson never said a thing about "fat", so why did the interviewer point to it as a problem. It should be blatantly obvious if you want to reduce sugar and other carbs the best way to do that is to eat more healthy and satiating fat. Fat and cholesterol provides building material for nervous tissue and the hormones that contol our health. Fat satiates and provices anti-inflamatory ketones.
fat causes insulin resistance

@@XeLTH-cam Correct. Heart disease and atherosclerosis is a disease of the modern world, following the advent of vegetable oils, and processed wheat products. They are unknown in population who eat all meat, blubber, blood and milk.
Regarding the fat ... The main focus it to cut down on fructose sugar carbs and salt most people are getting too much fructose sugar carbs and salt because of processed foods. And he did mention fat because he said keto diets are excellent but he didn't feel that people have to be on a strict keto diet.
Fruits and carrots have been cultivated for many decades now to be sweeter. When I was a child an apple tasted like an apple, it was sweet but it had a apple flavor. Now apples taste like sugar bombs! I'm 61.
I had to give up fruit, as I noticed with it being singularly what I ate in the morning for breakfast, within a half hour, I would be sunk low and ready for a nap.
The sugars of the fruit affected me, so they weren't difficult to give up.
You interview very well with only useful interjections for clarification. Thanks.
Here is a ChatGPT summary:
- We are facing a serious crisis with Alzheimer's as baby boomers age into their 80s and 90s.
- An article in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition suggests that Alzheimer's could be the result of our bodies going wrong in an evolutionary survival mechanism.
- The key villain is fructose, a form of sugar found in high fructose corn syrup and fruits.
- Fructose tricks the body into thinking it's hungry and reduces the energy we actively use.
- This leads to neuroinflammation and starves the brain of energy.
- Amyloid plaques and tau tangles are a defensive mechanism the brain is putting forward to protect itself.
- Eating excessive amounts of sugar, high fructose corn syrup, and high glycemic carbs can increase the risk of Alzheimer's.
- Alzheimer's is a potential epidemic and David Perlmutter, Dale Bredesen, and Maria Nagel are authors researching the topic.
- Fructose consumption can lead to a decrease in blood supply to certain regions of the brain, such as the cortex and hippocampus, which are involved in self-control.
- At the same time, other areas of the brain, such as the visual cortex and anterior cingulate, increase in blood flow.
- This matches the areas affected by Alzheimer's, suggesting that fructose consumption may be a contributing factor.
- Low sugar, low carb diets, keto diets, and intermittent fasting can help to reduce the effects of fructose and potentially prevent Alzheimer's.

Don’t cut back on salt, but get good salt like Redmond
Some people who get too much salt need to cut back. Watch the junk/processed food. Salt hides there. I don't really buy the "good salt/bad salt" thing. Salt is salt. Sugar is sugar. It's not "better for you" because it has some flavor or dirt in it.
Excessive fructose intake didn't happen for the vast majority of people prior to the early 20th century. High fructose corn syrup didn't exist until about 45 or so years ago. If the fructose hypothesis is right, we should see fewer Alzheimer's patients prior to the wide availability of fructose in the modern world.
No mention was given to the ability of the mitochondria to change their energy source from glucose to ketones.
Ketones are able to cross the blood brain barrier and provide additional energy for the mitochondria in areas that need it most….
Being able to achieve a glucose ketone index of 1, in itself indicates that the Insulin level will be low, and allow the body to produce short chain fatty acids from the fat stores.
I was interested to learn that some areas of the brain need it, and some areas don’t.
Fructose was the only thing that helped my ptsd after many diet switches. People can draw science now whole day and no one will be able to convince me it is bad, cuz nothing else hepls me.

@@classicgameplay10 ... and ALZ patients can't utilize glucose for brain energy. Why would you want them to suffer?
Remember as mentioned, high glycaemic index foods are refined carbohydrates eg flour, white rice, white bread, pasta. These are broken down in the body in the same way as the table sugar in our food. Surprisingly, small slice of white bread has the energy equivalence of about 2 teaspoons of sugar.
But they are starches/glucose not fructose (except for perhaps the added Sugar in bread). Not saying that these products should be consumed in excess but fructose is so much worse than glucose.
@@brendansheehan7714 Good point Brendan. The reason I mentioned this was that there are many comments about (table) sugar, and as far as the body is concerned, refined starches are problematic. It got a brief mention in the video, but is often overlooked by people whilst demonising sugar.
Idiot medical system can't see direct effects of sugar. I stopped sugar in 1990. Saved my life, active lifestyle and brain function.
You're 100% correct!! People don't realize this. You have to remove refined carbohydrates as well as sugar to fix the problem. I have kept my weight down to 115 for 5 years by removing these foods from my diet. It reduces inflammation which is the root cause for almost all diseases. My arthritis and gingivitis have gone away. I reversed my carotid artery disease. I also exercise, walking 30 minutes 5 days a week and weight bearing exercises. I'll be 70 years old in June.

I’m not vegan nor vegetarian, but I consume fruit regularly fruit as my grandpas did, they never suffered any medical condition even at their 90’s. Seasonal and local fruit is packed with electrolytes and minerals, most important micro nutrients.

And what about the ‘goo’? The sauces and crap that is added…. Eat the patty but can you avoid all the added crap?
@@brucemckay6615The patty is the problem too
I agree 👍💯. I was a vegetarian then vegan which both is high carb even if it's so called "good" carbs on and off for 20+ years. It wasn't till I discovered Carnivore diet did all my digestion, achy joints, and muscle tone improved tremendously. So many people have turned their life around being at least hiper carnivore 70% if not 100% to have experience better health. Alot have been former vegans. Vegan can work for many years but eventually it causes depletion of essential nutrients we get from animal meat. I think both diets eliminate the junk food if you do that which in itself helps. But listen to your body and eat what we have eaten and what grew our brains for 3 million years. Do your research and use your brain and common sense.
Try to use your brain, what did Neandertals eat ?, meat?, yes, bread?,no they had no bread, sugar, no, few berries, nuts maybe autum time, and less sweet than todays breeded sorts.
When they say something "COULD" be the problem, it means they don't know.
Alzheimer's is preventable. We should just avoid carbohydrates as much as possible. I think the average good thinker already is aware of this. Mostly grains and sugar.
yes and saturated fat and trasn fat in arteries too are avoidable. by living 100 year old on plants.

I second that, I know a lot of elderly who ended up with dementia/alzheimers, in two cases both husband and wife were effected - which indicates lifestyle factors.

One woman, an elderly neighbor, had these wounds on her legs which would not heal, possibly undiagnosed diabetes, doctors would prescribe all kinds of creams that did nothing, she ended up with dementia.

Alzheimer's is a type of dementia. Insulin resistance precedes type 2 diabetes, but Mild Cognative Impairment is what precedes most forms of dementia. "Dementia" is merely an umbrella term that covers Lewy Body, Parkinson's, Vascular, Alzheimer's, Frontotemporal, Huntington's, etc...

@@KenJackson_US How do you know you body is in ketosis? Too much saturated fat oil causes high cholesterol from excess fat deposits.
@@thornados4969: _"Too much saturated fat oil causes high cholesterol ..."_
No, that's the old paradigm. That's what Ancel Keys promoted, but we now know he lied. Consuming saturated fat does not necessarily cause high cholesterol in the blood. Also, high cholesterol isn't the problem. The problem is the *size* and *oxidation* of the LDL particles in the blood.
@@KenJackson_US "Consuming saturated fat does not necessarily cause high cholesterol in the blood.". Any study to support your comment?
Mine is not only from research and clinical trials but also the recent ones for experiment of people feed with LCHF diet. One of the many studies published in 2021 concluded "The current trial shows that feeding healthy, young women a ketogenic LCHF diet rich in saturated fatty acids for four weeks results in profound alterations in the blood lipid profile. In comparison with a control diet recommended by the Swedish National Food Agency, eating LCHF induced an increase in LDL cholesterol, a leading cause of atherosclerosis."
@@thornados4969: _"Any study to support your comment?"_
Yes. For example: Saturated Fats and Health: A Reassessment and Proposal for Food-Based Recommendations: JACC State-of-the-Art Review, August 2020.
The doctors that I follow claim the studies that supposedly show saturated fat is dangerous tend to be based on low quality questionnaire data.
*Thornados:* _"... eating LCHF induced an increase in LDL cholesterol, a leading cause of atherosclerosis."_
That's the old paradigm. Yes, it may increase LDL, but people with lower LDL actually have higher all-cause mortality. The problem isn't total cholesterol or LDL. The problem is the *size* of the LDL particles and their *oxidation.*
I'm not clear on the problems posed by industrial vegetable seed oils (soybean, sunflower, safflower, canola, corn), but they (especially linoleic acid) are apparently oxidized in their high-temperature production, which causes LDL apoB proteins to become oxidized.
I stopped eating sugar, including fructose. I consume as little as possible.

Great video well explained . Type 3 diabetics are growing in numbers so it makes sense to try and avoid becoming a statistic. 😊
Are all sweeteners problematic and what's the process behind it?
high fructose corn syrup You already connected Alzheimers to sodas. I suggest manufacturers of food products use it partly because it is easier to use in baking like in sodas but also because it appears independently in the label so it LOOKS like there is less sugar in the product.
The real reason they use it is because it is cheap. This is at least partially because the corn it's made from is subsidized by your tax dollars. Crazy, huh? We're paying to live in a dementiagenic and obeseogenic food environment.
Super interesting, thank you
Thanks for watching. Look for another video with Dr. Johnson explaining his book, "Nature Wants Us to Be Fat."
What if you have a craving for oranges, like eating three or four a day, plus say a few tangerines.. Would you be getting too much fructose?
I think four oranges and two tangerines is a little on the high side, but if they are real oranges, they come with fiber which will slow the absorption of the fructose. It's not near as bad as a couple bottles of soda a day.
Humans living in tropical climates have been eating high fructose diets for thousands of years. Fruit is not the enemy. What has changed in the last 50-80 years. fruit is the same. I a vegetarian has eaten at least 4 to 6 pieces of fruit a day for the last 50 years. I'm healthy no sign of diabetes. Fruit is not a problem. Whole foods are not a problem. Processed foods are the problem.
Fruits have changed a lot in the last fifty years. Where have you been? Things have got much bigger and sweeter and we now it fruit all year round when we used to eat it only for a few weeks a year. The trouble is, now, it's available to us all the time when it's shipped to us from every part of the world before it's ever ripe. Once fruit ripened once a year, now, it's grown four times a year and sent everywhere. It was designed to fatten us up when there was no other food to eat. No people are pigging out on it all the time.
You may not think it's harming you now but be careful. It's not designed for year-round eating.

I agree with you. Fruit is not the problem. The problem is glucose and carbohydrates causing the Alzheimers. Most fruits are low on the glycemic index and because they contain fiber, you do not become insulin resistant(diabetic)on fruit. If you consume fruit juice or high fructose corn syrup, yes, you will have insulin resistance because it contains low fiber and can result in Alzheimers.
Fructose and Glucose are inter-convertible. Sucrose consists of glucose and fructose bound together. The vast majority of the sugar we consume is sucrose and so we get equal amounts from sucrose. The hydrolysis of starch produces glucose.
Does Richard J. Johnson, M.D., have a book . Fascinating report, my wife has early signs,
I think he mentioned it “Nature wants us to be fat”. I’d also recommend Dale Bredesen’s books “End of Alzheimer’s”. which talks about the effect of diet.

Consuming fructose in high quantities from ORGANIC fruits will prevent neurological diseases. Highly processes sugars like corn syrup, consumed in high quantities, will create neurological diseases.

perhaps our bodies need to eat the foods in season, as the farmer gets more busy in spring gradually until the beginning winter berry's and fruits are more plentiful, yet mostly the farmers energy needs also rise until the crops are off, burning calories, and also eating fresh fruits with live enzymes. we make the mistake of trying to heat process or freeze fruit for winter in large amounts and where now the fructose has no enzymes to digest and when people spend more time indoors, instead our winter diets change for what is in season, like the old ways we ate less meat and fat in summer because we did not havre refrigeration. but as soon as temperatures are below freezing is when the livestock was processed, or farmers or pioneers whent hunting, then ice fishing in the middle of the winter. by the time of the end of February most apple storage ran out, and perhaps beginning of march we starved, or simply fasted. the problem of agriculture now is we try and process the fruits, destroying the enzymes and other properties, but also making the fructose more available all year. and also now farmers sit on tractors getting little exercise. where once the excess fruit was fed to the livestock, chickens and ducks. as we could only can so many glass jars of fruit where sadly that practice also added extra sugar.
The problem here does not seem to be the fructose in itself. If you eat like a bear, be prepared to go into hibernation like one. An extended period where your body feeds on stored energy. Knowing when, what and why you eat is the reason you're going to stay in health or not, all things being equal.
The fructose causing behavior to occur is the problem. You seem to think food selection is left-brained but it's actually heavily hormonally based, just like sex impulses.
Thank you, I needed that.
Maybe with juice, but not as whole fruit
fact good detail
This hypothesis seems to make a lot of sense. I would recommend the book on mitochondria by Dr. Lee Know, too. The same thing causing Alzheimer's is also causing Parkinson's and MS. I would say that while fructose and sugar makes sense, he needs to expand on exactly how salt is also a culprit. Were bears loading up on salt when it was time to hibernate? He just kind of threw that in there without much to back it up.
Great information 👍 thank you!
Dr Johnson stated that salty foods can lead to Alzheimers. Really? Please explain. Ta.
When so many couples who live together for 50 years and eat pretty much the same, yet only one of them develops Alzheimers, how is that explained?

Another nail in the coffin of ultraprocessed food
I highly recommend Dr Dale Bredesen's books on stopping AD and he also has a new book about "survivors" who have overcome AD with diet, exercise, and supplements. It's super inspiring!
Overcame alzheimers disease?
Unfortunately, I can't recommend Dr. Bredesen's work. I read his published articles and there is nothing remotely scientific in them. They're a series of reports about individual patients. None of them were formally diagnosed with Alzheimer's or met any of the criteria for diagnosis. Mainly they were anxious people worried about their memory. Which almost by definition means they don't have Alzheimer's - people with Alzheimer's don't recognize that they have cognitive deficits. in fact, getting an Alzheimer's patient to a doctor for evaluation is one of life's great caregiving challenges. When I heard about those new anti-amyloid medications for early Alzheimer's, involving IV infusions every 2 weeks and MRIs every month, I just had to laugh.
I wonder if the ‘high salt diet’ that he says causes this condition (along with high fructose and sugar foods) is applicable on a very low to no carb diet.
If you eat meat and fish you will need salt because meat and fish don't have salt in it. The salt was in the blood. We absolutely require salt, we can't make it but we can make glucose so we don't have to eat it. Also, we don't need any fructose.
@@toni4729 I know we need salt that’s why I wonder why he said what he did about salt being a contributor to brain disease.
We need 1500 mg salt per day to survive, along with potassium, magnesium and calcium. The reason why we were brainwashed to avoid added salt at the table is because of the overabundance of bleached salt added to every processed food, like breads, cereals, junk food, fast food...
I think he may have been referring to processed meals/foods and snacks (eg, chips) that are high in salt, more than we need. Maybe the combination of too much salt and too many carbs - very addictive and we want more and more, tend to overeat.
Amazing!!!! Gonna get his book!!!! Thank you….
Every body and blood type may need different diet
I agree with everything however, fruit is not the problem at all
While I appreciate this discussion it frustrates me to hear it veer off point a bit @ ~15:50-ish when they lump “hamburger” in with the sugar & carbs. It’s the bun, the seed oils used in cooking fast food type burgers and not the saturated animal fats that are the problems
They then again use the word ‘fat’ without nuance between saturated & un-saturated
A century of ketogenic research has shown the effectiveness of fat as a primary dietary component *when it comprises 80-ish percent* and carbs are restricted to 15-20% of energy needs-i.e. low-carb + high [saturated] fat
But, I *am* glad we are learning about the sugar-alzheimers link 👍
10:27 amolyid plaques usually done with brain biopsy, no?! How are you monitoring this? 😮
PetScan or MRI

We were hunter, gatherers, millions of years ago? Astonishing
Hamburgers? Let's please point out that it's the bun that's the problem, not the meat.
what are high salt & sugars diets ?
Starchy foods, rice potatoes pasta breads etc
Hey' LEE KELSO you look pro and very healthy... Like it 😊
Thank you! I've spoken with hundreds of health professionals for this broadcast and try to follow their advice.
Fructose is good for diabetic or not clearly conversation with us
What about juicing organic Vegetables with fruits so we can stand the vegetable juice
You don't need to juice any fruit or vegetables, eat them whole
Good food for brain and refraining shrinking
that is lie.
american cardiologist associations saying coconut oil is bad for you . because they didnt got kickbacks.
The possible solution is go on either the Keto or carnivore diets. And look into statins.
no no,hell no on statins!!!
see Paul Mason vids on cholesterol and statins
Statins actually have a warning about cognitive decline in the paperwork that is downloadable from all of the manufacturers. Higher, protein centric keto, or a high fat ketovore approach are best. We used both for the last 11+ years of my mother's journey through ALZ.
Ted Naiman has shown its the protein that keeps you lean. What makes you fat is the energy toxicity from either excess carbs or fats. The leanest and healthiest people eat appropriate amounts of protein daily. Think about it, what are you gonna feed a end stage diabetic if they are starving. You wouldn’t feed them more carbs and certainly not a piece of lard. You feed them lean meats. Protein is what increases insulin sensitivity. Thats what will save their life.
23 minutes in they first mention fruits are not bad.
total contradiction
Eating a small/moderate amount of whole fruit give you nutrients and fibre. Tick. Juice has wayyyyyy more fructose as you have got rid of the fibre, so gram for gram, you have way more fructose. Juice is a "sometimes" food treat.
Fresh fruits and vegetables are the best nutrition!
#HealthCallRadioHour This question is serious. Not joking. Does expensive fructose’s health benefits outweigh the ill effects? Say in the form of the high-grades of mono-pollen raw Manuka honey from New Zealand? Or have I been subsidizing an expensive path to Alzheimer’s?
We should stop eating anything.
Hahahah
So no more fruits too?
In addition to flour products, I have been advised to give up dairy products (50% of all meals), red meat, nuts (producing some harmful poisons--a natural defense mechanism), eggs (you kill a possible , bad for your karma), imported fruits (not only fructose). Starvation is the only possible option. Maybe avocados if you grow it yourself...otherwise it has been GMO-d and sprayed with various chemicals. Then you watch a video on youtube where you are advised to let go, don't worry, no more fear, no more anxiety, etc., etc., after knowing where you have come, like this universe with all it's warning signs "WHATEVER YOU DO, DON'T DO THIS OR THAT". That's not freedom...that's "tension", which leads to various diseases. If you think that chicken with rice is left on the table and you are safe, but bUT BUT my friend ... there is a video on youtube that explains that the most destructive combination for your digestion is chicken with rice ... two food components that do not go together at all.
What didn’t he mention a vegan diet or a chicken and veggie diet 🤔
Seed oils?
The answer is a carnivore diet. Its the ultimate.
I've been a carnivore for more than thirty years, not necessarily out of choice but I'm more than glad I have had to do it. I'm now seventy-one and fit and healthy. When I was in my thirties I was very sick and it was vegetable matter that was causing it.
@@toni4729 so proud of you! Just inspirational to read this!! Well done..keep spreading the word..we need as many people as we can.
@@nshorus5001 can afford to buy my meat fresh, so no need for roadkill. Yes i look forward to eating meat everyday. I do cook it slightly, but sometimes eat my mince raw dipped in egg yolk.
@@nshorus5001 humans and pre human carnivores do and have done so for millions of years, in fact we are adapted to do so. True in nature carnivores eat their meat raw. I do eat my meat raw sometimes but when its cooked, its very rare anyway.
@@nshorus5001 maybe so for those who live in the bush, or in country areas where this is more common, however i dont live in such areas, and i dont see roadkill at all. Any carnivore having the choice of fresh meat rather than potentially off or going off meat would take the fresh meat anyday. That is my own choice, go for it if you feel that way inclined. I am not poor and can afford to eat meat everyday.
OH YES THOSE TOXIC FOODS NEAR TO ELIMINATED OR RARELY EATEN !
No toxic grains
No fruits
No potatoes
Works for me !
Fat generates fuel??? Nope. Fat is a fuel that generates heat.
Is this funded by the meat and dairy industries?
No, monsanto.... now what's your argument?
@@toneyniko99 Well, most of these videos vilifying sugar are telling people that meat and dairy are ok.
@@Spock_Rogers They 100% are.
@@Spock_Rogers Because we are fucking omnivores
@@Stanley_Baby We are starchivores. The evidence shows that meat, eggs, and dairy cause many of the leading preventable causes of death including, heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and cancer. I also want no part in unnecessary animal cruelty, exploitation, and slaughter.
⚠️ The Hunter/Gathers All died from Diabetes. 😅😅😅
It's not that simple, just blaming fructose. There are many decades long Frutarians in perfect health with no dementia whatsoever. It's the fat blocking the insulin receptors that's a problem, leading to insuin resistance. You can eat a high fat diet, or you can eat a high glucose (fructose and/or sugar) diet, but not both at the same time.
You can’t just blame it all on fructose. Most of these people with dementia would still have the disease if they never consumed one gram of glucose in their life.
Over consumption of fructose is a risk factor that increases your chances, just as smoking 🚬 cigarettes increases the chances of cancer ♋️. 😳
Might be time to break the power grid, cut down the power poles with a 40 volt battery powered chainsaw, cut the poles half way through the wind will finish it, silent and easy, no electricity no cameras no government, no AI and no data centers
It's so hard to follow him
Toxins ( physteria) and infections ( fungal) can cause insults/plaques in brain. xoxo
Nonsense. Glucose, fructose, dextrose, sucrose, levulose, maltose. .
I only eat meat and animal fats. Zero csrbs, zero fruits, zero veggies. Well correction.. sometimes I drink whole milk, and some half and half. But that is maybe 3 to 5 grams here and there.
My health has never been better.. my BO is very low.. i have lost so much weight. My gut is gone.
Triglycerides have been about 55 to 54. Hdl about 75 or highr. I’m probably gonna be the worst candidate for alzheimers disease.
so you're consuming sugars then
This hypothesis is problematic and flies in the face of scientific evidence that the Standard American Diet (high saturated fat) drives endotoxemia in the blood stream that then ends up inside amyloid plaque in the brain.
Fructose is Fructose. If you are already diabetic best is zero fructose
How does this fit with the many studies that showed that diets with and without sugar if calories equated, have exact same results?
If fructose would cause a higher percentage to be converted into fat while reducing available energy generation this wouldn't be possible.
If you're talking about weight reduction any restriction works. If that's satisfactory great. We're talking about optimal Health here. That's a different rabbit hole. These people are trying to have active Minds and long lives. That's much harder but worthwhile starting to think about when you reach the end of your growth about age 25. It would be great if you develop good habits before then it's never too late to start healing a brain under attack.
@@Yourdeadmeat69 no i am taking about all heath markers. All previous studies showed that all health markers for insulin resistance and others improve the same
@@auseryt NOW you're talking about health markers, who numerical breadth has DOUBLED because sick is the new normal? Improve is not optimal. Better is not best or medicinal levels of ketosis Go to Dr. Annette Bosworth and kick back.
Did you know blood sugar levels in the 1930's were in the 50's and 60's, not 100 to 140? Who funded this study? The packaged food industry? Are you still working towards debunked FDA guidelines that say you should be eating 3 meals a day and 3-400 grams non essential carbohydrates, a ritual that's been around 100 years, not the 200,000 years of humanoid existence? Are you doing intermittent fasting, reducing the eating window to 6 daylight only hours, so the body can hear, scour zombie and cancer cells?
Or are you listening to Doctors who have 4 hours nutrition science to recommend them.
@@auseryt ALL previous studies? I call BS on that. Post some pubmed links.
Sugar increases insulin.
Think about this > There is more Sugar on Earth than DIRT. Which means EVERYONE'S surrounded by it and it seems like EVERYONE has Alzheimer's etc. etc .
Every person has this ONE thing in common. Ponder silently.
exaggerate much?
Why isn't high fructose banned ?
You don't know why ? Why isn't nicotine banned ? Common . You can get lots of fructose eating sugar , brad , rice , potatoes .
What I mean is , why can't they use real sugar ? It's too expensive for them to use real sugar . Is high fructose a synthetic or concentrate ?
@@hught5697 sugar has 50 procent glucose ,50 procent fructose. Sugar is as bad as high fructose .
Because it’s cheap and money making.
Fructose is worse than sugar because it goes straight to the liver and it is made with gmo corn which is another toxic poison, but yes, both are bad and should not be consumed at all, our body can make our own glucose when we need it, sugar, or anything that gets converted to glucose, is not necessary at all
These guys admit that the aren’t experts in this area. What a waste of time to watch this
Let the man finish his sentences, christ almighty!!
The brain does not use Fructose. Biochemistry 101
Quite right. Fructose just makes you fat and sick.
Hippocrates : "All disease begins in the Gut".
so put corpse of obese cow in my guts? ok. and somatic cell count pus and blood and fecal, for my maximum nutritional needs

Sounds like another low carb cult. Insulin resistance is way more complex than this overly simplistic fructose hypothesis. What about the 5 blue zones population longevity? What about the Okinawans that get most of their energy from tubers?
Careful! No one gets their majority of food from tubers. Go there and find out for yourself. They live on mostly fish.
fact
@@toni4729 purple sweet potatoes.
Okinawan sare lean people and they exercise, which is cruicial for the muscle mass to assist in carb metabolism. They would have a high protein and omega 3 diet (seafood). Getting energy from whole Tubers is way better than white rice, as there is also fibre.
This guy always asks at the worst time and pretty irrelevant questions. The researcher could not make a point without useless disturbance.
The researcher contradicts himself on more than one occasion.
My biggest pet peave is in all my years of animal research I've never met a fat, STUPID bear. They instinctually know how to eat a proper, healthy diet going into hibernation which includes fruits, nuts, greens, herbs, fatty fish and other mammals including organ meat.
Gee, that sounds alot like how our human ancestors ate. No added sugars, no highly processed seed oils and no processed foods. Tip: stay out of the middle of the grocery store as much as possible and try to eat organic if you can afford it.
What about the TMAO link to AD? Forget it. It doesn't fit MY hypothesis. Let me sell books despite all evidence that contradict MY hypothesis. People love to hear stuff that supports their low carb ravings.
