The Silent Epidemic: Is Alzheimer’s Actually Type 3 Diabetes? How Inflammation, Sugar, and Energetic Blocks Impact Brain Health – Did you know that by 2025, brain diseases are projected to surpass heart disease as the leading cause of death in the U.S.? It’s a startling fact, but it’s not surprising when you consider the role of inflammation in our bodies. Inflammation is your body’s reaction to stress, sugar, toxicity, and other irritants. It’s the silent fuel behind many chronic conditions, including obesity, autoimmune disorders, and now, cognitive decline. But what if Alzheimer’s and dementia weren’t just neurological disorders? What if they were actually Type 3 diabetes—a metabolic and energetic crisis rooted in inflammation and an imbalance in how we process love, stress, and nourishment? Let’s explore how our emotions, energy, and physical health are deeply intertwined—and how you can take steps to protect your brain and reclaim your vitality.
The Emotional and Energetic Roots of Blood Sugar Imbalances
Sugar metabolism is controlled by the pancreas and spleen—two organs that work as a masculine (yang) and feminine (yin) team. The pancreas, the most Yang organ, is responsible for transformation and energy. The spleen, a yin organ, supports nourishment and emotional processing.
When these organs are imbalanced, it’s not just a physical issue—it’s an energetic one. Your beliefs about love, worthiness, and control can impact how your body processes sugar and inflammation. Let’s take a look at the three types of diabetes through an energetic lens:
- Type 1 Diabetes: A deep need for love and attention, feeling insecure or unworthy, relying on others for validation, and struggling with negativity.
- Type 2 Diabetes: A fear of fully participating in life, an intense need for control and approval, feeling undeserving of love, and being stuck in patterns of struggle and lack.
- Type 3 Diabetes (Alzheimer’s & Dementia): Suppressed emotions, overwhelm, powerlessness, and a desire to escape the present moment. A subconscious attempt to forget pain and stress rather than confront it. If brain diseases are connected to inflammation and sugar metabolism, addressing the emotional and energetic imbalances behind them becomes essential.
Reducing Brain Inflammation: Mind, Body & Energy Healing
So, how do we start clearing the fog and healing our brains? Here’s a three-part approach that tackles inflammation from all angles—mental, emotional, and physical.
1. Detox Your Mind: What Are You Feeding Your Brain?
Your brain isn’t just impacted by food—it’s shaped by the thoughts, information, and energy you consume daily.
Ask yourself:
- What do I watch, read, and listen to?
- Who do I surround myself with?
- Do these things uplift or drain me?
If your mental diet is filled with negativity, fear, or stress, it’s time to shift toward content that nourishes your mind and soul.
2. Heal Emotional Blocks: Address the Root of Overwhelm
If your brain is inflamed, it may signal that something deeper is out of balance.
Questions to reflect on:
- What emotions am I suppressing?
- Why do I feel powerless or overwhelmed?
- What aspects of my life make me want to check out or escape?
Many of these emotional patterns are buried in the subconscious, making them difficult to access alone. A Soul Intelligence© session can help clear these energetic blocks, bringing clarity, healing, and alignment back into your life.
3. Support Your Brain Physically: Key Nutrients & Biohacks
To combat brain inflammation, focus on anti-inflammatory foods, high-quality supplements, and natural remedies:
- ✅ Antioxidant-rich produce: Eat a variety of deep-colored fruits and vegetables like blueberries, pomegranates, beets, and carrots to fight oxidative stress.
- ✅ SPMs (Specialized Pro-Resolving Mediators): A powerful derivative of Omega-3s, SPMs act like “Pac-Man,” hunting down and resolving inflammation at the source. Most people don’t consume enough Omega-3s to activate this process, making SPM supplements a game-changer.
- ✅ Lion’s Mane Mushroom: This powerful adaptogen supports cognitive function and nerve regeneration and may protect against Alzheimer’s. It contains erinacine A, which promotes nerve growth and helps improve memory and focus.
- ✅ B-Vitamins for Brain Function:
B12 (Methylcobalamin): Enhances mental clarity, energy, and cognitive function.
B1, B2, B3 & Biotin: Essential for brain energy production.
B6: Supports neurotransmitter balance.
B5: Crucial for acetylcholine production (key for memory).
Folic Acid & B12 Together: Helps with cell repair and neurological function. - ✅ DMG (Dimethylglycine or B15): This powerhouse supplement supports oxygenation, methylation, and mitochondrial function, helping to “turn the power back on” in your body and brain.
