The Spin

Pro-establishment narrative

Studies like this confirm that scientists are discovering tremendous ways to prevent Alzheimer's. We now know that what we eat, particularly a Mediterranean diet, can protect the brain by reducing harmful buildup and inflammation, while the ingredient in drugs like Wegovy may lower Alzheimer's risk by protecting brain cells and reducing inflammation. These findings show how medicine, especially newly developed treatments for obesity can target and fight this disease.

Establishment-critical narrative

While many doctors have been trying to broadcast the links between body fat and Alzheimer's, there are large and powerful medical organizations that are funded by processed and sugary food companies, which results in official health guides failing to effectively promote these preventative measures. What many may not know is that diet and lifestyle choices not only prevent Alzheimer's, but have been shown to reverse it. We don't need drugs — we need clean food and honest health guidelines.
