Reason for Alzheimer's
 

Will diabetes be a reason for Alzheimer's?

There is some evidence that Type 2 Diabetes may be a risk factor for AD but, because both are complex diseases, this is not yet clear Brain insulin resistance in type 2 diabetes and Alzheimer disease: concepts and conundrums. - PubMed - NCBI

Hi Ralph

Welcome to NeuroTalk :).

You may find the information in the link above of interest as far as the relationship between AD and Type 2 Diabetes is concerned.

Best wishes.

Just heard a segment on NPR on getting good REM sleep to ward off dementia/alzheimers. I've known this and talk about sleep here and my good sleep and my mind health at 82.

The NPR people talked about reduction of amyloid plaque on the brain and there is a lot of info on this that Grape Seed Extract also supports. I've posted on this too.

And posted my sleep routine in the Sleep area here. Get that Deep SLEEP -- so critical.

Bumping up to remind about the importance of Deep Sleep and brain health.
