@livewellbewellpodcast: Mental health is a significant focus for me, and good reason. Dementia, now recognised as the No. 1 killer in the UK, is often referred to as "Type 3 diabetes." This condition is characterised by insulin resistance in the brain, where neurons can't effectively respond to insulin. Many of us experience brain fog as a byproduct of our fast-paced lives, leading to poor decisions and heightened anxiety. But have you ever considered that being picky with food might affect your mental health? Recent research suggests it can. However, it’s not just about diet. Sleep is equally fundamental. We also explore a less-discussed system—the glymphatic system—a network of fluid spaces in the brain that removes waste and maintains brain homeostasis. Understanding its role highlights the importance of sleep in supporting mental health. In this week’s Live Well Be Well episode we delve deeper into the systems that help elevate our mental wellbeing.
