People with dementia who develop inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) show faster deterioration in thinking, memory, and reasoning skills
A large-scale analysis of 7.9 million participants revealed IBD patients face significantly elevated dementia risk, with Crohn's disease showing stronger association than ulcerative colitis
IBD triggers systemic inflammation, releasing cytokines that breach the blood-brain barrier, disrupting neural communication and contributing to progressive neurodegeneration over time
IBD creates gut dysbiosis, producing neurotoxic metabolites, and increasing intestinal permeability, allowing harmful substances to reach the brain through bloodstream circulation
Supporting cellular health through vegetable oil elimination, proper carbohydrates, targeted probiotics, vitamin D optimization, and natural antimicrobials can address IBD's root causes
