Is blood sugar dysfunction the leading cause of cognitive decline, dementia, and Alzheimer's disease? An estimated 94% of Americans suffer from unhealthy blood sugar metabolism, 30% from prediabetes, and over 10% from diabetes. 

Blood sugar imbalance is one of the leading causes of illness in the US today driving everything from heart disease to Alzheimer's. 

In fact, the case between diabetes and Alzheimer's disease is so strong it has led many experts to refer to it as Diabetes Type 3.

In today's episode, we dive deep into the role of blood sugar, and brain health, and why this one single change to your lifestyle may be the most important thing you can do to protect your brain.

We discuss:
