ISBN:  9781591203810 (pbk.) Description:  xvi, 304 pages : illustrations ; 23 cm. Bibliography:  Includes bibliographical references and index. Summary:  How to integrate life-restoring fatty acids - medium chain triglycerides (MCT) and its natural source, coconut oil - into the diet. In addition to Alzheimer's disease, this dietary treatment can be used to counter such other neurodegenerative diseases as non-Alzheimer's dementias, Parkinson's, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and multiple sclerosis. Dr Mary Newport was not the first to call Alzheimer's "a type of diabetes of the brain," but she firmly believes it is. Areas in the brain that test positive for Alzheimer's show insulin deficiency and insulin resistance, which cause decreased glucose uptake in the cells, leading to cell malfunction and cell death. Because diet is the most important way to counter diabetes, Dr. Newport advocates a dietary intervention based on a whole-food, high-fat, low-carbohydrate diet - just the reverse of the current dietary model and all the processed foods sold in supermarkets. Dr. Mary Newport is the author of Alzheimer's Disease: What if There Was a Cure : the Story of Ketones. She is the author of the CoconutKetones.com website.
