#126: The Surprising Connection Between Blood Sugar and Brain Health in Parkinson's Care, Plus Critical Supplements for Your Brain & Common Mistakes with Them

Is your brain starving for fuel or for hope?

In Part 2 of our conversation with researcher Martha Carlin, we go beyond the science into something even deeper, including glucose, faith, and healing from the inside out! We tackle:

• What unstable blood sugar is doing to your brain and how glucose resistance and hypoglycemia can exacerbate symptoms and accelerate disease progression in your brain.

• Why your cravings might be a cry for minerals.

• And how faith and belief create healing changes in the nervous system.
  ⠀
  Whether you're navigating Parkinson's or just want to support someone who is, this conversation is rich in practical tools and powerful reminders that you are more than your diagnosis.

This is Part 2 of a 2-Part Series. Jump back for Part 1 with Martha last week all about the major things we're missing in doctor's offices and the hidden role of stress in Parkinson's.

MORE ABOUT MARTHA:

Martha Carlin is a citizen scientist, systems thinker, and the founder of BioCollective, a microbiome company at the frontier of our understanding of gut health, the microbiome, and disease, and BiotiQuest, a company delivering quality probiotics.

When her husband John was diagnosed with Parkinson's in 2002, Martha dove into the existing research to find a way to help him. When she came across a newly discovered research showing a link between gut bacteria and two phenotypes of Parkinson's she quit her lucrative job in New York as a business turnaround expert and dove into how to turn around the human body  - and particularly our gut health and microbiome - to create healing and health.

Her background in systems thinking has sparked collaborations across the scientific spectrum including neuroscience to engineering to infectious disease - and has created out-of-the-box thinking to help bring new perspectives to disease, our gut microbiome, and health.
