🧠 Alzheimer's, sugar and a surprising solution

📈 The prevalence of Alzheimer's disease is on the rise, going hand in hand with increasing sugar consumption.
Increased consumption of refined sugar and high glycemic index carbohydrates:

❌ Produces insulin resistance (including in the brain - so-called type 3 diabetes).

❌ Promotes chronic inflammation and oxidative stress.

❌ Reduces energy production in neurons.

❌ Leads to excessive glycogen deposition in nerve cells.

As sugar intake has increased in recent decades, the brain has become increasingly dependent on glucose, and the mechanisms for processing and recycling (including glycogen breakdown) have become disrupted.

🔍 What the science says
A recent study (Nature Metabolism) shows that:

  • In Alzheimer's, neurons can no longer break down glycogen.
  • Glycogen binds to the tau protein involved in the disease → blocking the breakdown.
  • This decreases the production of antioxidants such as NADPH and glutathione → increases neuronal degradation.

👩🔬 Normally, glycogen is "broken down" by an enzyme (glycogen phosphorylase) into antioxidant molecules that protect the brain.
📉 In Alzheimer's, tau protein blocks the enzyme → oxidative stress → neuronal death.

⏳ Solution suggested by the study

  • Intermittent fasting and reduced caloric intake increase glycogen phosphorylase activity (effect observed in flies).
  • The effect was also replicated with a synthetic drug.
  • A balanced, antioxidant-rich diet supports cognitive health.

🥥 Coconut oil - 'spare fuel' for the brain
In Alzheimer's:

  • Neurons become resistant to insulin and stop using glucose efficiently.
  • Glycogen is blocked → chronic energy deficit.

Coconut oil:

  • It is rich in MCTs (medium-chain triglycerides).
  • These quickly turn into ketone bodies - a source of energy that doesn't need insulin and goes straight to the brain.

Ketone bodies:
✔ Feed neurons even when glycogen is blocked.
✔ Reduce oxidative stress.
✔ Keep more NADPH available for glutathione regeneration.
✔ Produce fewer free radicals than burning glucose.

Dosage: 2-3 teaspoons a day.

🧠 Hericium - Mushroom for mind and nerves

Main effects:

✔ Natural neuroprotection and neuronal regeneration

✔ Support for memory, concentration and mental clarity

Dosage: 2 - 4 capsules a day

🧠 Can zeolite help the brain in Alzheimer's?

📌 Short answer: There is no firm clinical evidence that zeolite cures or stops Alzheimer's.
📌 But... there is scientific reason to believe it may have an indirect protective role.

🔍 What we know from research

1️⃣ Heavy metal detoxification
Natural zeolite (clinoptilolite) binds lead, mercury, aluminum - metals which, in excess, are toxic to the brain. Aluminum, for example, is suspected of being involved in the formation of beta-amyloid deposits in Alzheimer's.

2️⃣ Reducing oxidative stress and inflammation
Animal studies show that zeolite decreases inflammatory markers and oxidative stress - processes that accelerate neuronal degeneration.

3️⃣ Protection of the gut-brain axis
Zeolite can improve the integrity of the intestinal barrier, reducing chronic inflammation affecting the brain (called inflammaging).

⚠️ Important to remember

  • We do not have large clinical trials on Alzheimer's patients.
  • Any benefit would probably be indirect (detoxifying, anti-inflammatory, antioxidant).
  • It is not a substitute for a balanced diet, intermittent fasting, physical activity and blood glucose control.

So although zeolite is not a cure for Alzheimer's, it can be a useful adjunct in a comprehensive plan to support brain health.
🌿 Integrated with: anti-inflammatory diet, sugar reduction, intermittent fasting and alternative brain energy sources (e.g. coconut oil/MCT).

Dosage: start on the first day with one capsule and increase daily by one capsule until you reach 6 (3 in the morning, 3 at lunch and 3 in the evening). Drink 2 liters of fluid a day. If taking medication, leave 2 hours between medication and zeolite.

📌 My conclusion
There are no firm studies (yet) showing that intermittent fasting, low-carb diets or coconut oil reduce the risk of Alzheimer's, dar, the mechanisms discovered make this hypothesis plausible.

💡 What you can do starting today:

  • Adopt intermittent fasting (adapted to you).
  • Reduce sugar and refined carbohydrates.
  • Try a coffee with coconut oil for extra brain energy.
  • Use Hericium
  • Treat yourself regularly with Zeolit Spectrum.

Your brain will thank you! 🧠✨
