Summary: Today, I have Scott Mendelson, M.D., Ph.D. as my featured guest on the Carbohydrates Can Kill podcast Show to discuss Geriatric Medicine on Alzheimer’s disease. Alzheimer’s disease is one of the well-publicized mental disorders involving the geriatric population. We all realize it is both mentally and financially detrimental to both the Alzheimer’s patient and his family. It is not only important for us to find effective treatment(s) for the disease, but also critical for us to understand the cause of this disaster and its prevention. Unfortunately, up to date, there is not an acceptable chemical or drug treatment for the patients. However, it is my knowledge that restricting carbohydrate foods should have a positive impact on managing or treating the disease, especially when the patients take in middle-chain triglycerides (MCTs). Dr. Medelson is a psychiatrist who has published a book with topics on Alzheimer’s disease and metabolic syndrome. The latter is an important issue related to diabetes mellitus, or, more specifically, to hyperglycemia. Are not you curious about what Dr. Mendelson is going to tell us about this disease? Yes, I am sure you are. So, let’s tune in for this interesting interview now! Beyond Alzheimer’s: How to Avoid the Modern Epidemic of Dementia (Amazon)
