Canon
•
Hyman presents Alzheimer's as a downstream consequence of metabolic dysfunction: insulin resistance, chronic inflammation, toxin accumulation, and nutrient deficiency converge to produce neurodegeneration decades before diagnosis.
•
Hyman explains how 'leaky gut' (intestinal permeability) allows bacterial endotoxins into the bloodstream, which cross the compromised blood-brain barrier and trigger the neuroinflammation that drives Alzheimer's.
