Dementia and Alzheimer’s disease are often called Diabetes Type 3 because the root causes, such as chronic inflammation, oxidative stress, insulin resistance/high glucose, and depression pathways lead to both diabetes, cognitive decline and AD. Diabetes is also an established risk factor for dementia. This training provides comprehensive training in state-of-the-art physical, mental, and emotional aspects of cognitive decline, Alzheimer’s disease, and diabetes. The integrative approach addresses established conventional biomedical science and clinical interventions, along with cutting-edge research on the use of functional medicine, naturopathic medicine, and psychology. This course also provides a comprehensive approach to understanding the effects of caregiving on physical and emotional health.
