People who eat diets high in sugar could be at greater risk of Alzheimer’s disease, a new study suggests.
For the first time, scientists have established a “tipping point” link between blood sugar glucose and the degenerative neurological condition.
Researchers from the University of Bath found excess glucose damages a vital enzyme involved with inflammation response to the early stage of the disease.

Here it all is again Sugar we have to stop deluding ourselves sugar is a huge player in the human health crisis. Our evolutionary history doesn’t support a high-carb diet, yet the majority of foods we eat are loaded with added sugar., which is a carbohydrate. For more info Click Here
Don’t drink Diet Drinks! The message that we should all dramatically reduce our sugar consumption is really gaining traction and for good reason. This was a central theme of Grain Brain, a book by Dr. David Perlmutter where he expands on this and these ideas have certainly been validated since the book was published back in 2013.
Unfortunately, as people have learned about the threats of sugar consumption, soft drink manufacturers have decided to emphasise sugar-free beverages, sweetened with artificial sweeteners, as a “healthy” alternative. To be clear, nothing is further from the truth.

Vitamin C is a amazing water soluble vitamin. Linus Palling would be proud to see this he wrote many technical papers and a popular book, Cancer and Vitamin C, that discussed their observations. Pauling made vitamin C popular with the public and eventually published two studies of a group of 100 allegedly terminal patients that claimed vitamin C increased survival by as much as four times compared to untreated patients see the Wikipedia article.
Your brain needs fat for food, having just read The Alzehimer’s Antidote by Amy Berger and Fat for Fuel by Dr. Joseph Mercola. Theketogenic diet seems to be coming to the fore, it is known to improve and maybe reverse Alzheimer’s as well as many other health conditions Cancer for one.
I am very much aware that the Paleo diet has massive health benefits and can personally vouch for that from experience, but to extend the Paleo diet to one having a greater fat to carb ratio that’s radical but I’ve only just started to up the fat content of my diet so am not yet in a state of ketosis therefore I can’t say yet for myself whether I notice any difference, so Watch this space!
Please ensure you don’t drink tap water without filtering it. Floride and Clorine.
Iodine deficiency is one of the major causes of hypothyroidism, but very few people know that this can be the result of three everyday chemicals. These harmful chemicals are everywhere in our environment, meaning that it is virtually impossible to totally eliminate exposure. However, there are a few ways to reduce them, and this video will hopefully show you just how important that really is! especially fluoride. So what are these three chemicals, and how do they affect your thyroid? Here are some names to remember – Fluoride, Bromine and Chlorine. All three of these chemicals interfere with the absorption of iodine by the thyroid gland and are in our water. Why does this matter? Well, adequate iodine is vital for the proper function and health of your thyroid. If this absorption process is affected, insufficient iodine is retained in your thyroid and hypothyroidism is the result.
