#42 Alzheimer’s And Insulin: What’s A Diabetic To Do?
In this episode, Dr. Donohoe and Dr. Panno review a research paper that summarizes insulin's role in the brain and the connection between insulin resistance and Alzheimer's disease. Guess what? INSULIN IS NOT ONLY FOR GETTING GLUCOSE INTO THE CELLS!!
The Paper Discussed in this Podcast:
Blazquez, E., Velazquez, E., Hurtado-Carneiro, V., & Ruiz-Albusac, JM., (2014). Insulin in the Brain: it’s pathophysiological implications for states related to central insulin resistance, type 2 diabetes, and Alzheimer’s disease. Frontiers in Endocrinology; 5(151). Doi: 10.3389/fendo.2015.00161.
