🧠Alzheimer's is a type of diabetes of the brain, where there is a problem with glucose uptake in certain parts of the brain.
⛽️Ketones are an alternative fuel for the brain and can provide energy to cells in the absence of glucose.
💡Medium Chain Triglyceride (MCT) oil, derived from coconut oil, can increase ketone production in the body.
💊The current medications for Alzheimer's can slow the decline, but there is no cure or significant improvement in cognition.
🔬Research on the role of ketones in Alzheimer's is ongoing, and there is hope for further understanding and potential treatments.
