Today, fructose is consumed mainly in highly concentrated forms such as fruit juice, dried fruit, and high fructose corn syrup in soda and ultra-processed foods. According to metabolic health and Alzheimer’s scientists, this abundance of fructose in our modern diet may be starving our brain's memory center due to a genetic survival trait. Rina sits down with Dr. Richard Johnson to discuss his revolutionary new hypothesis on the link between fructose consumption and Alzheimer’s disease. Rina and Dr. Johnson discuss the evolutionary mechanism behind fructose metabolism, insulin resistance, and weight gain that has completely backfired today due to its overconsumption. Dr. Richard Johnson is a professor of medicine at the University of Colorado Denver and has been a practicing physician and clinical scientist for over 25 years. He is internationally recognized for his seminal work on the role of fructose in obesity, diabetes, and now, Alzheimer’s disease.
