Nutriproteomic diets as a treatment for cardiovascular disease, NAFLD, and AD activate hepatic Sirt 1 and increase hepatic FGF21 and VIP levels relevant to the maintenance of the hepatic peripheral amyloid beta clearance pathways. LPS suppresses Sirt 1/adiponectin expression and increases TSP-1 release from cells with effects on adiponectin and peripheral amyloid beta/cholesterol clearance pathways. Nutritional therapy reduces LPS-induced inflammation and maintains hepatic TGF-β/cholesterol levels (apo AI, apo B); these nutriproteomic diets avoid the transfer of LPS/mycotoxin from the blood plasma to the CSF to prevent LPS/mycotoxin-induced brain apo E neutralization associated with the prevention of amyloidosis and neurodegeneration. Low calorie diets maintain plasma anti-aging protein GDF11, FGF21, VIP, gelsolin, insulin like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), and klotho levels, which are relevant to chronic diseases and AD.
