Cerebral insulin resistance:

Brain Insulin Resistance Contributes to Cognitive Decline in Alzheimer's Disease



Nevertheless, insulin resistance in tissues outside the brain with or without hyperglycemia can potentially cause insulin resistance in the brain and thereby contribute to the onset of Alzheimer's disease. "The new research demonstrates not only that the brain in Alzheimer's disease is, in fact, insulin resistant, but that this occurs in non-diabetics and hence in the absence of hyperglycemia outside the brain,"

I think you were both trying to be funny in different ways.


My dad has early onset Alzheimer's and it's not very funny. Ever since I found out I have diabetes, I'm wondering if I'm going to get early onset Alzheimer's too.
