Low Blood Sugars May Increase Risk of Alzheimers

We all know about the connection of blood sugar levels with diabetes – but did you know it may also indicate Alzheimers disease.

Alzheimer’s disease and the #1 blood sugar disorder, diabetes both degrade normal brain function through lack of insulin.
A long-term Swedish study has found that low levels of insulin increases the risk of Alzheimer’s risk.

Men with low insulin secretion at age 50 had a significantly greater risk of Alzheimers disease as well as other types of dementia later in life. The link is strongest in men without the gene that predisposes people to Alzheimer’s.

Alzhiemers is the most common form of dementia and its onset is typified by a general decline in mental ability. You can maintain mental cognitive function by ‘exercising’ the brain with memory tests and brain function stimulation doing simple tasks such as crosswords and memory games.
