Metabolic Mind | Ketones as brain energy rescue in Alzheimer's Disease - Stephen Cunnane, PhD @metabolicmind | Uploaded December 2022 | Updated October 2024, 5 hours ago.
Alzheimer's Disease has been called "Type 3 Diabetes," suggesting a causative role for insulin resistance and poor glucose utilization. Allowing the brain to use ketones for fuel (via ketosis) could correct the underlying mechanism and potentially improve symptoms of Alzheimer's Disease.
Stephen Cunnane, PhD, is a Professor at the Faculty of Medicine and Health Sciences at the University of Sherbrooke. Throughout his career, he has explored the link between nutrition, brain energy metabolism and cognitive functions during aging. In this talk, he discusses how ketones can improve brain energy usage and Alzheimer's symptoms.

This video was recorded at the first ever Metabolic Psychiatry roadmap retreat, hosted by Baszucki Group and the Milken Institute for Strategic Philanthropy in May, 2022 in Santa Barbara. The conference brought together physicians, neuroscientists, dieticians, entrepreneurs, venture capitalists and philanthropists to build community in the emerging field of Metabolic Psychiatry.
