In this episode we talk about a recent study that sheds some light on why almost 50% of people with Alzheimer's have hyperinsulinemia.

A new study looked at the effect that sugar has on the macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF) enzyme.

A diet high in sugar can destroy the MIF enzyme. Why is that a big deal?

The MIF enzyme plays a massive role in your immune response.

Too much sugar can lead to out of control inflammation in your brain.

Dementia and Alzheimer's are a growing problem.

Dementia is now the #1 killer in the U.K.
