Introduction
Compensating for deteriorating brain energy metabolism is the core feature of an emerging strategy aimed at delaying the onset and/or progression of AD. Relative to its size, the adult human brain requires a disproportionately large amount of energy that is provided principally by glucose. In those at risk of AD including cognitively healthy older people, regional brain glucose hypometabolism can be present long before the clinical diagnosis of AD. The brain’s alternative energy supply to glucose is unique compared to other organs in that it specifically requires ketones (also known as ketone bodies) to compensate for occasions when glucose supply to the brain is inadequate. In contrast to glucose, brain uptake of ketones appears to still be normal in AD. Hence, ketogenic interventions may help delay AD."
