New research from the AIBN has revealed that neurons in the brain use fats for energy, challenging decades of scientific thinking and opening the door to new treatments for neurological disease.

Who would have thought that we get energy from our diet!
That means that I don’t have to keep sticking my tongue into electrical outlets any more!
