C oconut oil & Alzheimer’s link?
HEALTH REPORT
In 2008 coconut oil was thrown into the spotlight when Dr Mary Newport began giving it to her husband who had been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease. Dr Newport became convinced that the four teaspoons of coconut oil she gave him every day dramatically improved his symptoms. Dr Newport recognised the importance of coconut oil for the nourishment of insulin- resistant brain cells; these damaged cells struggled to use glucose for energy, but she found the ketones in the coconut oil could be used as an alternative energy source. Further research in Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience and Clinical Practice , reported it’s the ketone bodies derived from medium chain triglycerides in coconut oil that may be helpful in supporting brain function and memory.
