The main aspects I find interesting in all three:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n- The brain needs fuel to function, like any organ in the body, the main one being glucose (an excess of which is toxic to it and increases inflammation), but it is also able to function well with TCMs (medium-chain triglycerides), such as those present in good quantities in coconut oil.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n- In the absence of fuel, the brain becomes more sensitive and \u201cintoxicated\u201d by toxins and releases greater quantities of glutamate, thus becoming more reactive\/excited. If this status persists, however, neurodegeneration increases, precisely because of these factors.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n- It is currently assumed that part of the brain damage associated with Alzheimer's is precisely caused by the restriction of fuels for the brain, especially glucose; but this can be treated\/minimized and even reversed (more recent studies suggest) by regularly ingesting sufficient quantities of TCMs such as those in coconut oil.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n- When it comes to the brain, therefore, glucose is necessary, but at optimal and regular levels, neither too little nor too much.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n- Until \u201crecently\u201d it was assumed that neurons didn't need insulin to take glucose into themselves and use it, but this has \u201cfallen apart\u201d as an \u201cabsolute truth\u201d: today it is known that the brain produces its own insulin (like the pancreas); precisely because of this, anything that increases its insulin resistance will also affect the insulin resistance of its neurons, thus making it more difficult for them to take glucose in and use it. In other words: this also explains how the regular intake of foods with an excess of fructose or other sugars increases the body's insulin resistance and this also affects the neurons due to the lack of glucose... Result: brain malfunction and dementia, such as Alzheimer's.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n- Yes, the excessive deposition of beta-amyloid plaques is still considered to be the main causal and aggravating factor in Alzheimer's disease, interfering with neuronal communication, but the inflammatory and low-energy production pathways discussed above may suggest both \u201csynergistic\u201d mechanisms in the disease and mechanisms for the formation of plaques or their perpetuation (let's remember that it is the recently \u201cdiscovered\u201d glymphatic system that does the general cleaning of the brain, especially at night, and is mainly responsible for removing the plaques... But this system also needs fuel to function: the same ones mentioned above - and good sleep and circulation: in other words, healthy lifestyle habits, in general, for optimal functioning).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
