Nyskick. There may be ways to prevent, delay, and possibly even reverse the course of this crippling neurodegenerative disease. In The Alzheimer s Antidote, Amy Berger presents a multi-pronged nutrition and lifestyle intervention to combat Alzheimer s disease at its roots.Berger's research shows that Alzheimer s results from a fuel shortage in the brain: As neurons become unable to harness energy from glucose, they atrophy and die, leading to classic symptoms like memory loss and behavioral changes. In a culture obsessed with miracle medications, the pharmaceutical route for tackling Alzheimer s has been a massive failure. Pills and potions don t address underlying causes, and regarding Alzheimer s, they typically fail to improve even the symptoms. As a metabolic problem, the only effective way to treat Alzheimer s may be a multifaceted approach that fundamentally reprograms energy generation in the brain. The good news is, the secret is as simple as switching to a low-carb, high-fat diet.
