Time-restricted eating (TRE), a ketogenic diet, and exercise improved cognitive function and markers of metabolism including triglycerides, VLDL, and HbA1c in a 71-year-old woman with ApoE4 that has mild Alzheimer’s disease and metabolic syndrome (case study).

This is an interesting proof of principle study showing that implementing a nutrition protocol purposed at raising plasma ketones through fasting (TRE) a ketogenic diet and physical exercises can compensate for insulin resistance and the ApoE4 gene in a mild Alzheimer’s patient experiencing cognitive impairment.

The APOE4 gene is the largest risk factor for Alzheimer’s disease besides age itself.
