"Is Alzheimers Type 3 Diabetes?" - For real?!

I came across this blog today, and was stunned.  I haven't heard this before, but supposedly research has been out there supporting this since 2005:  Alzheimers might be linked to the same harmful diet and lifestyle factors that cause Type 2 Diabetes.

Here's the New York Time blog article - http://opinionator.blogs.nytimes.com/2012/09/25/bittman-is-alzheimers-type-3-diabetes/?smid=tw-bittman&seid=auto

Here's a report on the 2005 study that the blog cites:  http://www.nationalreviewofmedicine.com/issue/2005/12_15/2_advances_medicine01_21.html


If you need any motivation, guys and gals, this it it.  Reduce your risk of Alzheimers.  Get that bad white crap out of your diet.  Or, at least don't let it be the cornerstone of every meal.  Treat anything your body "reads" as sugar just like what it is - dessert. 

Eating dessert three times a day won't give you the kind of life you want.
