Low carb and Alzheimer's
Alzheimer's is a devastating condition, affecting 1 in 10 Australians over 65. People living with type 2 diabetes are at even greater risk of developing Alzheimer's Disease. But there is hope.
How can low carb help?
"Eating low carb is the most effective way we know to reduce the risk of Alzheimer's."
Amy Berger, author The Alzheimer's Antidote.
Research shows that adopting a low carb way of eating that is non-restrictive, filling and abundant can help manage your blood glucose, and even return your HbA1c to pre-diabetic levels, known as 'remission'.
A low carb and healthy fat diet is also the only evidence-based approach that's been seen to improve the symptoms of dementia and Alzheimer's.
Before you start!
Consider assessing your health and tracking changes before starting your two-week low carb meal plan.
Mood
Pay attention to any changes in mood throughout the day, especially if you feel tired and unproductive around 3 pm or irritable and hungry before lunch.
Measure
Measure your waist, just above the belly button, at the start and end of following the Defeat Diabetes two-week plan. You might be surprised to see how things change!
Weight
Even two weeks of a low carb diet can make a difference to weight. In fact, 92% of members following the Defeat Diabetes Low Carb Program report weight loss.
Track
A continuous glucose monitor (CGM) can help understand what foods spike your blood glucose and how a low carb approach like the Defeat Diabetes Low Carb Program can stabilise blood sugars.
