Blood sugar isn’t just about energy or cravings. It plays a critical role in brain health.
Research shows that for every 18 mg/dL increase in fasting blood sugar, the risk of developing Alzheimer’s rises by 17 percent. This connection is especially important because many people have elevated blood sugar without realizing it.
The good news is that this is a modifiable risk factor. Through daily habits like nutrition, movement, sleep, and stress management, you have powerful tools to protect your brain.
