Gluten and carbs are the cause of Alzheimer's disease, anxiety, depression, and ADHD?

brain health

Dr. David Perlmutter, the author of Brain Change has stated that carbohydrates, even the whole-grain carbs that man of us think of as the good ones, are the cause of almost every modern neurologic lalady. That includes dementia, decrease libido, depression, chronic headaches, anxiety, epilepsy, and ADHD. 

“Most grain foods, whether we’re talking about quinoa, amaranth, the very popular grains of the day, the reality is they still are associated with a carbohydrate surge. They have a fairly high glycemic index, meaning that after 90 to 120 minutes, your blood sugar is going to go up, and that is detrimental to the brain.”, saids Perlmutter. 

“The biggest issue by far is that carbohydrates are absolutely at the cornerstone of all of our major degenerative conditions,” he says. “That includes things like Alzheimer’s, heart disease, and even cancers. What we know is that even mild elevations in blood sugar are strongly related to developing Alzheimer’s disease. That was published August 8, 2013, in the New England Journal of Medicine. Even mild elevations in blood sugar compromise brain structure and lead to shrinkage of the brain. That’s what our most well-respected, peer-reviewed journals are telling us.
