You don't want to become senile when you get old, right?

Yeah, I'm talking about Alzheimer's

[HEALTHY THREAD]

By eating poorly, you are skyrocketing the risk of Alzheimer's

How is that?

Hear me out

(1/8)

By eating poorly, you are inviting insulin resistance and type 2 diabetes

Which are the essential risk factors for the Alzheimer Disease (AD)

Let me give you some info about AD

(2/8)

AD has been linked to

-Glucose hypometabolism (your brain cannot utilize glucose)
-Inflammation
-Mitochondrial disfunction
-Impaired autophagy

These things might evoke something familiar...

(3/8)

Yeah, that familiar thing is FASTING

Fasting can actually prevent these things above

How?

When you fast, you produce ketone bodies which is the key point here

-Your brain can utilize ketones as an alternative to glucose

-Ketones have anti-inflammatory effects

(4/8)

-Your brain actually uses ketones more efficiently than glucose by spending less oxygen and producing more energy.
Which means you improve mitochondrial function

-And as you know, fasting skyrockets autophagy

(5/8)

Don't think of this thread as a weird fasting promotion

Fasting is one of the healthiest things you can do for your health

And I don't promote what I don't find healthy as a medical intern

One last thing

(6/8)

Longer-term fasts (24+hours) are more beneficial than shorter-term fasts on these things I talked about above

Which are

-Autophagy
-Ketone production
-Inflammation

And so on...

Also, I have a big big surprise for you

(7/8)

I wrote a guide about longer-term fasting

You can get more benefit out of your fast if you read it

And I'll send it to my email subscribers just for once in <24h
