The School of Greatness
Neurologist: The Shocking ROOT CAUSE of Alzheimer’s - How To Prevent & REVERSE Damage To Your Brain | Dr. David Perlmutter

Trillions. Trillions of mitochondria. Throughout the human body as well. In fact, virtually every cell in the body does contain mitochondria with the exception, for example, the red blood cell. So the issue then is recognizing the brain is a hugely energy-hungry organ, using a lot of energy day in and day out. The brain, truthfully, never rests. When we sleep, the brain isn't going to sleep.

It's actually diverting its tasks to cleaning things up and getting ready for the next day. While other parts of your body, your muscles, etc., are resting at night, your heart is resting at night. But that said, the brain is very energy hungry, and as such, problems with metabolism, how it creates the energy, would be very obvious then in the brain. And it's really the first place to suffer.

The reality is that the metabolic defects of the brain that presage to the development of Alzheimer's disease begin 20 to 30 years prior to the clinical manifestations, in other words, the changing in memory, the issues with carrying out purposeful activities, where suddenly now, though the problem began two decades ago when we could have paid attention,

Now that mom or dad or husband or wife is beginning to have issues remembering the grandchildren's name, the Wi-Fi codes, how to use their iPhone, getting lost, now we take notice and begin to think about, well, what drug can we use now that it's fourth and long?

The point I'm trying to make is an important mission is to emphasize that our brain function, our health of the brain, the brain's ability to resist degeneration is dependent upon metabolism and we need to begin paying attention to that metabolism 20, 30, 40 years prior to when the typical medical intervention is then implemented to deal with a problem.

Well, anything that threatens the mitochondria then is going to threaten not only how the brain works moment to moment, but set that brain up for a future decay.

Yes. So to answer your question then, what hurts the mitochondria? Well, we know that a powerful threat to mitochondria, a direct clear and present danger to mitochondria are certain foods like ultra processed foods. We know that fructose is a dramatic threat to mitochondrial function. We put a paper out on that topic in February of 2021. Certainly many environmental issues need to be considered.

Anything that increases inflammation in the human body increases the threat to the mitochondria and as such sets the stage for brain decline. So with that understanding then,

The idea of developing therapies for people in whom Alzheimer's is now beginning to raise its ugly head, focusing simply on the accumulation of this protein beta amyloid is myopic and has proven ineffective and beyond that has proven threatening. A fascinating
