“My parents had animal fats every day and still got Alzheimer’s”

Sorry to hear that. It still could be the carbs that got them, though.

It could have been carbs that caused their Alzheimer’s but I doubt it.

I suspect a few things:

1. Plastics (theirs was the first generation to have plastics in everything, on their skins (thus in their bloodstreams), in food prep and storage, cooking (nonstick), in cans, in clothing, etc.

2. Chemicals in laundry and garden and foodstuffs

3. Pesticides in food and garden

I think those are the big three.

I can tell you Alzheimer’s does not come because “you don’t keep your brain busy.” That is 100% BS. My parents were HIGHLY active. Dad had 3 jobs in retirement that he loved. Mom volunteered. They traveled the world. They read extensively and had friends and a rich social life.
