The Brain-The 5th Organ That Controls Your Blood Sugar Levels
ByIf you’ve read previous blog posts, you may have already learned that there are 4 organs that control your blood sugar levels, those are: the Thyroid, the Liver, the Adrenal Glands, and the Pancreas. I want to reveal to you in this article that there is a 5th organ…the Brain.
It goes without saying that the Brian is the Orchestra Conductor of our bodies. If oversees and regulates our body’s digestion, detoxification, respiration….and the list can go on and on.
Some people with Type 2 Diabetes, the Brain Function needs to be addressed as well. There are many “feedback” loops from the brain to the body that can be interrupted or malfunctioning.
We’ve all heard the expression, “I just had a gut feeling”….and this expression is physiologically correct. Your brain and your gut communicate.
Many common symptoms Diabetics experience is described as “Brian Fog,” depression, anxiety, and the inability to think clearly or remember simple things. These may all be indications that your Brain, more than likely, is involved in your body’s inability to control your blood sugar. The medical approach to these problems is to prescribe drug blockers, enhancers, or suppressors that never address the underlying CAUSE to the problem.
The first step in finding out if the Brain is part of this vicious cycle is through thorough testing and then supporting the chemical pathway or organ that is not functioning correctly. Once function is improved, the body will naturally work more efficiently and produce the ultimate outcome of lowering the blood sugar levels.
