108: What Is Type 3 Diabetes?

Did you know that living with type 2 diabetes can increase your risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease by up to 150%? Some researchers have even started calling it “type 3 diabetes,” a term that points to the powerful connection between insulin resistance, blood sugar and brain health.

In this episode, we cover what type 3 diabetes really means, why scientists are exploring this link, and what it could mean for you. You’ll learn how insulin resistance in the brain leads to plaques, tangles, inflammation and energy failure, and most importantly, what you can do to lower your risk.

From practical nutrition strategies to emerging research on the gut-brain connection, this conversation gives you evidence-based tools for prevention. Because what’s good for your blood sugar is also good for your brain!
