Alzheimer’s disease = type 3 diabetes? Maybe

Blogs - Fayobserver.com - Alzheimer’s disease = type 3 diabetes? Maybe: What’s new is the thought that while diabetes doesn’t “cause” Alzheimer’s, they have the same root: an over consumption of those “foods” that mess with insulin’s many roles. (Genetics have an effect on susceptibility, as they appear to with all environmental diseases.) “Sugar is clearly implicated,” says Dr. de la Monte, “but there could be other factors as well, including nitrates in food.”
