So they weren't really handheld.
And what was fascinating was the group that had the intense intervention with the inter with people working with them virtually, you expect people who are metabolically compromised to have cognitive decline over two year period when they're my age, when they're that age.
Uh but interestingly, these people not only stabilized, but they improved in their cognitive function.
Uh and you know, this is uh uh uh quite fascinating that uh
But, you know, th the the real take-home message I think is that uh that for that was actually from the Pointer study published in JAMA, but the real take-home message from this other study, the uh is that in looking at diets of people over a period of time, twelve point seven years, what they found was that one serving per day as an average
of ultra processed foods, it's a handful of chips, increased your risk of Alzheimer's by thirteen percent.
Just a handful of chips.
Just a handful.
And ten or more servings per day, which isn't necessarily out of the question for a lot of people, translated to a two point seven fold increase risk for a disease for which we have no pharmaceutical treatment right now.
The other the other study that I was referring to, the pointer study that I I mentioned just now, that was a study that did indeed uh was published in JAMA.
And what they did was they simply did a uh this intervention that we're talking about, where they got supervised versus they got sort of unsupervised a couple times a year.
And remarkably, during that two-year period of time, the supervised group didn't have state.
stabilization of their cognitive function, they had improvement.
But what I find so fascinating about the other part of the at least the pointer study is that the unsuper unsupervised group had almost the same improvement.
Oh wow.
Can you imagine?
Just giving them the information, say, do this, we're doing a study, and they improved when they would have declined.
So uh it just stands to support the idea that again, getting back to your question, what we talked about in grain brain, yeah, we talked about gluten.
And since then so much information's come out about that, but it's about it's about sugar and carbs and the effects that have that they have on the brain, which are, you know, not boding well for what we're seeing going on around us.
Are all carbs bad?
