ALZHEIMER’S IS TYPE 3 DIABETES

Alzheimer’s is type 3 diabetes.  “Alzheimer’s is a process by which excess amyloid plaque builds up in the brain, compromising brain function.

While many theories exist as to why the plaque accumulates, one common theory is that it is due to a lack of a protein called insulin-degrading enzyme.

This protein’s job is to remove excess sugar-carrying insulin and amyloid plaque from the brain.

If this enzyme is too busy removing insulin and excess sugar from the brain due to high blood sugar levels, there may not be enough to also remove excess plaque, thereby significantly increasing the risk of Alzheimer’s.”
