Alzheimer's could be the most catastrophic impact of junk food | George Monbiot | Comment is free | The Guardian

Don't know where the link to junk food came in, but it appears eating the wrong type of food could be the cause of Alheimers.

Unfounded medical opinions please...

"When you raise the subject of over-eating and obesity, you often see people at their worst. The comment threads discussing these issues reveal a legion of bullies who appear to delight in other people's problems."

And by that, I meant old Geeoge seems to think the only people who get fat from eating too much junk food are poor people. I thought it was super wealthy contractors who have no time to cook their own food who binge on cholocate, crisps and coffee as we can afford it. Maybe we should donate our brains after death, on the understanding any royalites from anything dicovered into them go towards a ressurection fund.

In New Scientist last week, there was a report which suggests that Alzheimers is in fact a third type of diabetes. I.e. it's caused by too much sugar.

The link to that New Scientist article was in fact a central part of Monbiot's article. It was the essence of what he was writing about.

And if you think that's me chiding people who rushed to comment without reading first, well, there's no way I can sugar that pill.

Pay attention there. It's about sugar, and possibly other carbohydrates. Where are they in kebabs and fried chicken?

You mean I can keep drinking like a fish and still have a kebab? That's the sort of news I like.

AAAARRRRGGGGHHHHHH TYPE 1 Diabetes is not caused by to much sugar

I wish they would change the name for type 1 it realy winds me up when people assume their all the same thing

Type 1 is caused by the pancreas packing in, nothing to do with sugar
Type 2 is fat peoples diabetes caused by lifestyle choices mostly fatty sugary food intake wich is were they get the idea of a type 3 causing alzheimers
