Summary: In today’s episode of The Carbohydrates Can Kill Podcast, the finale of the special series on Alzheimer’s disease, I am honored to have Ms. Darlene Kvist back as my featured guest. After interviewing three experts in this special series on Alzheimer’s disease, I, like you, want to know about how nutrition is actually playing its role in the development, aggravation, prevention, treatment or even reversal of this terrible disease as well as other neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson’ disease, ALS, multiple sclerosis, epilepsy and so on. We all know now that restricting carbohydrates is very critical in dieting. However, we need to know why some foods, which are easily available, are actually the culprits for Alzheimer’s disease. For that, I am very eager to learn the facts from the nutritional perspective of Ms. Kvist. Let us tune in and learn what Ms. Kvist will tell us. About Darlene Kvist, M.S., C.N.S., L.N.
