Hi everyone! This is Kelly - your Nutrition Coach and Brain Health Professional on a mission to teach you how to get a better brain!

Are you one of the 37 million Americans who have diabetes? Did you realize that in addition to that, 1 in 5 people have diabetes and don’t realize it? Those are startling statistics to say the least!

You’ve likely read how diabetes can lead to kidney damage, heart disease, nerve damage, and strokes. But among all the information about diabetes out there, there’s one thing you don’t often hear about: how diabetes can affect your brain.

Diabetes can cause brain fog, anxiety, and mood shifts. It also affects your cognitive abilities and puts you at higher risk for developing long-term complications like Alzheimer’s disease.

Some sure to watch this video to discover other ways diabetes affects the brain and what steps you can take to manage your diabetes, improve your brain health, and function at your best!
