Belinda Fettke on Sugar, Brain Health, and the Fight for Better Nutrition

But I know that's the simplistic view, but really interesting how also, when you talk to doctors and you ask them about what I can do to support my health and well-being, they'll send you to pharmaceuticals...
Ever wondered how sugar impacts your brain health? In this episode of 'Recovery After Stroke', Belinda Fettke shares an eye-opening story about her husband, Dr. Gary Fettke, an Orthopaedic Surgeon who faced a two-year court battle for advising his diabetes patients to cut down on sugar. Belinda dives into the surprising lack of support for nutrition in stroke recovery and sheds light on the powerful influence of corporations on dietary guidelines.
She discusses the role carbohydrates play in brain function and emphasizes the importance of taking charge of your own health by making informed dietary choices. This episode is not just informative but also empowering, leaving you with a renewed sense of control over your health journey.
