🚩 Cerebral Glucose Hypometabolism. Dr. Georgia Ede - 'Nutritional and Metabolic Strategies for Optimizing Mental Health' Your brain cannot utilize glucose without adequate insulin...the more insulin resistant you are, the more difficult it is for your brain to process glucose for energy.... Lack of adequate and consistent energy for the brain is what causes cell death in ischemic events, and is interestingly involved in some of the migraine pathologies as well. It is also connected to mental health conditions as well as Alzheimers. The paradox...over time the higher the serum insulin, the less is available in your brain. "The combination of high brain glucose and low brain insulin.... is the 1-2 punch for brain health" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UkqZW_sBPTg&t=1235s
