    body that promote chronic inflammation.
  • In the long term, inflammation disrupts normal
    functioning of immune system and wreaks havoc on
    your brain.

  • Low insulin has been linked to juvenile criminal
    behavior.
  • Erratic emotional outbreaks follow a sugar binge.

29
How the Body Tries to Deal with Sugar

37
Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF)
  • Growth Hormone in the Brain

38
BDNF
  • Responsible for new brain tissue

  • Needed for learning, growth and normal brain
    functioning.

  • High sugar diets decrease BDNF

39
BDNF Continued
  • Low BDNF associated with depression, suicide,
    OCD, Alzheimers Disease, other dementia.
  • Huntingtons Disease and schizophrenia.

40
Schizophrenia and BDNF
