presents episode 1029 | Dr Ben Bikman
Dr Steven Lin podcast

BYU Lab published paper earlier this year...
-hippocampus involved in cognition
-it relies on 2 fuels: glucose & ketones
-research on human hippocampus cells
-Alzheimer's cells had reduction in
glucose-metabolism genes
THEY WERE ALL DOWN
-ketone genes were totally normal
in both Alzheimer's and normal
Other research: early dementia brains
take in less glucose, BUT STILL USES KETONES

We are looking at degree hippocampus
becomes insulin resistant...
-hippocampus NEEDS GLUCOSE by
insulin-dependent pathway
-When insulin resistant, CANNOT GET
THAT GLUCOSE FOR FUEL
"Brain is energy HOG. But, when
insulin resistant, cannot access the
glucose it is dependent on.
BRAIN HAS ENERGY GAP"
-while body swimming in glucose, insulin not working!"

AND: eating carbs so much, NEVER
HAVE KETONES--which could replace
glucose gap!
"Alzheimer's to some degree is due to
insulin resistant hippocampus"
-IMPROVING INSULIN RESISTANCE
can make up the energy gap.
