Eric Collett is the man who's rewriting the script on brain health and challenging everything we thought we knew about aging. Imagine a world where Alzheimer's isn't an inevitable decline, but a preventable condition. That's not science fiction - that's Eric's mission. A former memory care executive turned brain health revolutionary, Eric went from running a struggling care facility to developing a groundbreaking protocol that's helping people reverse cognitive decline - we're talking about Parkinson's patients doing jumping jacks after being wheelchair-bound, and dementia patients dramatically improving their cognitive scores.   With a childhood dream of building flying machines and a professional journey that's taken him from caring for seniors to consulting with NFL athletes, Eric isn't just another health expert - he's a visionary who believes your brain's potential is limited only by your willingness to understand and nurture it. His company, A Mind for All Seasons, isn't just treating symptoms - they're uncovering the root causes of neurological challenges, from dental health to environmental toxins.   If you've ever wondered whether cognitive decline is truly inevitable, or if you're ready to take control of your brain's future, this conversation will change everything you think you know about health, aging, and human potential.   Connect with Eric Collett on his website: https://amindforallseasons.com/  On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/a-mind-for-all-seasons/    = = = = = I write for people who want more signal, less noise.

Welcome to the last episode of our 3 part 'Detroit Cares About Caregivers' Series! What resources actually exist for caregivers, and how do you access them when you need support? This question haunts many people thrust into caregiving roles, often leaving them feeling isolated and overwhelmed. In this episode, we bring together powerhouse resources ready to lighten your load—without emptying your wallet.The biggest revelation? Many people providing significant care don't identify as caregivers at all. "If you're providing services for a loved one, a neighbor, anyone that depends on you for assistance, advice, or expertise—you are a caregiver," explains Dr. McNeill, DNP, Project Director of Wayne State University's A.G.R.E.E.D-GWEP program. This critical identity shift opens the door to a wealth of support many never knew existed.We dive deep with experts from three major organizations: Wayne State University's Geriatric Workforce Enhancement Program (a $5 million initiative), the Alzheimer's Association Michigan Chapter, and the Detroit Area Agency on Aging. Each shares concrete resources they offer completely free—from respite care options and support groups to innovative apps that help navigate the healthcare system and ensure accountability from providers.Whether you're new to caregiving or have been shouldering responsibilities for years, this episode connects you with organizations that have already done the hard work of figuring out what caregivers need. As we wrap up our Detroit tour, we leave listeners with practical entry points to engage with these resources—websites, phone numbers, upcoming events, and most importantly, the encouragement to reach out.Remember: Alzheimer's is heavy, but we don't have to be. Follow us for more conversations that bring light to the caregiving journey and subscribe to ensure you never miss an episode that might just change your caregiving experience.For more information about the AGREED program, please visit http://agreed.wayne.edu. Support the show"Alzheimer's is heavy but we ain't gotta be!"IG: https://www.instagram.com/parentingupFB: https://www.facebook.com/parentingupYT: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCDGFb1t2RC_m1yMnFJ2T4jwPatreon: https://patreon.com/jsmilesstudiosTEXT 'PODCAST" to +1 404 737 1449 - to give J topic ideas, feedback, say hi!Be sure to leave us a review!

Ein Hoffnungsschimmer im Kampf gegen das Vergessen: Mit Leqembi ist erstmals in der EU ein Alzheimer-Medikament zugelassen. In der Schweiz warten Betroffene nun auf grünes Licht von Swissmedic. Stefanie Becker, Direktorin von Alzheimer Schweiz über Behandlung und wer gefährdet ist. Jedes Jahr erkranken in der Schweiz gut 30'000 Menschen an Demenz, die meisten davon bekommen Alzheimer. Jahrzehntelang stagnierte die Entwicklung von Medikamenten gegen Alzheimer. Nun mehren sich die positiven Signale: In der EU ist seit kurzen das Medikament Leqembi zugelassen. Das Medikament gilt als ein Meilenstein für die Behandlung von Alzheimer. Betroffene in der Schweiz warten nun gespannt auf einen Entscheid der Schweizer Zulassungsbehörde Swissmedic. Stefanie Becker, Direktorin von Alzheimer Schweiz, ist zu Gast bei David Karasek.

Welcome to the podcast with Dr. Brendan McCarthy!   In this deeply personal episode, he shares why lab work—especially testing FSH (Follicle Stimulating Hormone)—is non-negotiable in hormone replacement therapy.   This is not about gatekeeping. It's about understanding. It's about caring. Dr. McCarthy recounts a formative memory of meeting a woman who underwent surgical menopause and was never told what would happen to her body afterward. That moment shaped his lifelong mission to treat women with comprehensive, individualized care—not cookie-cutter patches or “blind firing” estrogen without context. In this episode, he explains:

(Episode description by podcast producer, Sue Duffield) “Today's episode goes much deeper than just a story about host Mary Anne Oglesby-Sutherly's sister, Doris. Her heart-felt words will throttle the listener into a Netflix-like mini-series of hope, despair, miracles and over-the-top depth of secrets revealed. Mary Anne is at her finest here, but it took everything she had to disclose the family secret, all while her sister Doris transitioned into the after-life. You will find great compassion and understanding as to why Mary Anne is a soldier for the kingdom of caregiving. She searched her whole life to find the missing piece of the puzzle, only to realize that God in His infinite timing would sweep her into a week of miracles.” www.verandaministries.org  

Breast cancer is one of the most talked-about health issues in the world, but there's still so much we don't discuss. While mammograms and early detection campaigns have saved countless lives, the conversation often stops there.  What's missing is a deeper look at the lifestyle, genetic, and environmental factors that play a pivotal role in prevention, and the small, daily changes that can make a massive impact. Because here's the truth: 80% of breast cancer cases are not inherited. They're environmental. That means we have far more power than we think. But to tap into it, we need better guidance, smarter screening strategies, and a stronger understanding of how our bodies work. What kind of screenings should women get? How do factors like breast tissue increase the risk of breast cancer? In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Pamela Smith, an internationally recognized functional medicine physician, author of 14 bestselling books, and co-director of the Personalized Medicine Certification at the University of South Florida.  She shares science-backed strategies to reduce your risk, strengthen your immune system, and support your body before and after a diagnosis. Things You'll Learn In This Episode  The 3 things that feed cancer Sugar, stress, and toxins are the trifecta that fuel cancer cell growth. But how do you realistically cut them out and what's secretly making them worse? Why 80% of breast cancer isn't genetic Family history matters but not as much as your environment. Which everyday exposures and habits have the biggest impact on your risk? The truth about hormones and alcohol Is hormone therapy safe? And what happens when you mix it with alcohol?  What most women don't know about screening Dense breast tissue, faulty methylation, even your gut health can affect your screening results. How do you make sure you're getting the full picture of your health?   Guest Bio Pamela Wartian Smith, M.D., MPH, MS is an internationally known speaker and author on the subject of Anti-Aging and Precision Medicine.

Hello all,    I recently had cataract surgery in both eyes, and my eyes get tired if I look at the computer too long.  I need to take breaks while recovering. Instead of discussing shared and individual LTC annuities this week, I need to share an episode that was aired last summer. This will remind you how LTC annuities can help both protect your family if you need extended care and also eliminate all those gains on your non-IRA annuities you've been holding on to because you don't want to pay more in taxes.   LTC annuities have very few health questions and are more easily approved.   Schedule with me to learn how you can avoid sharing your annuity earnings with Uncle Sam.

Creatine for Alzheimer's — let's separate the hype from the hope. A new study has caused a stir in June 2025, but lead researcher Matthew K. Taylor told us: “ I don't think I can recommend it to a patient that this is going to ultimately have some sort of cognitive influence.” We speak to Dr. Taylor and Dr. Russell Swerdlow in this episode, discussing: • Role of creatine in your brain, and why it matters for energy metabolism • What the 2025 study found (and why it wasn't designed to prove effectiveness) • How scientific nuance gets lost in supplement hype • Why even promising early data must be handled with care • The vital difference between hype and hope Dr. Russell Swerdlow, MD is Director of the University of Kansas Alzheimer's Disease Research Center.

"He put me here to take care of them. This is what He wants me to do." These words capture the essence of Joann Gromowski's profound caregiving journey spanning nearly two decades as she cared for her father, aunt, and mother through various stages of illness and decline.What does it truly mean to become a caregiver for aging parents? In this deeply moving conversation, Joann shares the raw realities of her experiences, from the practical challenges of managing dementia to the spiritual strength that sustained her through countless sleepless nights. Her story reveals how each caregiving situation demanded different approaches—her father with his heart condition, her aunt with multiple health issues including cancer and diabetes, and finally her mother with Alzheimer's.The most illuminating insights come from Joann's hard-won wisdom about dementia care. Unlike children who build knowledge progressively, those with dementia lose capabilities in reverse. "You have to meet them where they're at and become part of their reality," she explains, rather than frustrating both yourself and your loved one by insisting on what used to be true. This profound shift in perspective transforms caregiving from a battle into an act of compassion.Joann doesn't shy away from discussing the practical aspects either—the importance of having proper legal documents in place before they're needed, knowing where to find resources, and her number one regret: not asking for help sooner. For those currently navigating the caregiving journey or those who see it on their horizon, her advice serves as both comfort and practical guide.Beyond the practical, this conversation explores how caregiving shapes us as people. Joann reflects on how God's purpose became clear through her service to family, even though she—a busy attorney with her own practice—was perhaps the least likely sibling to take on this role. The experience revealed strengths she didn't know she possessed and deepened her faith in profound ways.What's your caregiving story? Whether you're currently supporting a loved one or preparing for that possibility, this episode offers both practical guidance and spiritual encouragement for one of life's most challenging yet meaningful journeys.SHOW NOTES:CLR's website has a collection of articles on dementia and Alzheimer's disease here: https://christianliferesources.com/medical-concerns/dementia-alzheimers-disease/CLR also has a carefully curated Pro-Life 101 section on caregiving here: https://christianliferesources.com/caregiving/Find strength and courage in your faith at this year's FEARLESS FAITH Conference.

Synopsis: What happens when a world-class scientist and a philanthropic legacy collide with one of medicine's greatest challenges? Dr. Howard Fillit and Mark Roithmayr of the Alzheimer's Drug Discovery Foundation (ADDF) join host Alok Tayi for an inspiring conversation on bold science, visionary funding models, and the future of Alzheimer's research. From treating Estée Lauder in the 1990s to building a $100M venture philanthropy engine, they trace ADDF's evolution into a global leader in high-risk, high-reward drug development. The discussion covers the rise of biomarkers and digital diagnostics, the foundation's partnerships with visionaries like Bill Gates and Jeff Bezos, and how ADDF's venture philanthropy approach bridges the “valley of death” in biotech. They also dive into global regulatory challenges, the economic urgency of Alzheimer's, and why the future lies in prevention, precision medicine, and a patient-first mindset. This episode is a masterclass in scientific grit, ecosystem thinking, and turning urgency into progress. Biography: Howard Fillit, MD Founding Executive Director and Chief Science Officer of the Alzheimer's Drug Discovery Foundation Howard Fillit, MD, is a geriatrician, neuroscientist, and innovative philanthropy executive, who has led the Alzheimer's Drug Discovery Foundation (ADDF) since its founding.

In 1987, he joined the Mount Sinai School of Medicine, where he is a clinical professor of geriatric medicine and palliative care, medicine and neuroscience. Dr. Fillit also maintains a limited private practice in consultative geriatric medicine with a focus on Alzheimer's disease and related dementias. He has authored or co-authored more than 300 publications and is the senior editor of Brocklehurst's Textbook of Geriatric Medicine and Gerontology. Dr. Fillit is the recipient of many awards and honors including the Rita Hayworth Award from the Alzheimer's Association. Mark Roithmayr Chief Executive Officer Mark Roithmayr is an admired nonprofit leader with four decades of experience in both start-ups and mature organizations. As CEO of the ADDF, he is responsible for steering the Foundation's overall strategy, focus, and business operations. Since joining the ADDF in 2017, the organization has transformed dramatically in impact, scale, presence, and brand. Under his leadership, the ADDF's revenue has increased five-fold from $17M to over $90M, and mission-related investing has grown over 100%. He works closely with Dr. Fillit, executive leadership, and the board to advance the ADDF's mission of accelerating the discovery of drugs to prevent, treat, and cure Alzheimer's disease and related dementias. His key accomplishments include securing donations from Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, and MacKenzie Scott, and a 10-figure gift from the Lauder family to cover ADDF's overhead for the next 20 years.

This podcast brought together two remarkable friends—Peter Berry and Deb Bunt—for a conversation that was as inspiring as it was deeply honest. Hosted by Marianne Sciucco and Christy Byrne Yates, the discussion explored not only the personal journeys and books of Peter and Deb, but also the profound insights they've gained into living well with dementia. Peter's journey began with a diagnosis of early-onset Alzheimer's at the age of 50. As a successful business owner, he was shocked—and initially devastated—by the news. He shares openly about the dark period following his diagnosis, describing it as “a year of hell,” marked by depression and even suicide attempts. What's remarkable, though, is how Peter transformed that despair into a renewed sense of purpose. Inspired by both his own experience and his father's long journey with Alzheimer's, Peter resolved to become a source of hope and understanding for others facing similar challenges. Enter Deb Bunt, Peter's cycling buddy-turned-co-author and close friend. Their relationship is a beautiful demonstration of how support doesn't just flow one way. As Deb and Peter describe it, they each bring unique strengths to the friendship: Deb provides companionship and boundless camaraderie, while Peter offers technical know-how and navigational skills. Together, they reinforce the idea that living well with dementia is as much about mutual support and meaning as it is about medical care. This mutuality spills into their advocacy efforts—travelling throughout the UK, speaking at events, and writing books together. Their creative journey produced two books so far: Slow Puncture, a memoir of Peter's life post-diagnosis, and Walk With Me: Musings Through the Dementia Fog, a collection of Peter's raw and poetic reflections. Deb explained how Peter's poetic descriptions became the muse for her own long-harbored ambitions to write, and how collecting Peter's texts and turning them into a book gave both of them a sense of validation and purpose. These works don't just recount Peter's experiences; they offer a window into his emotional landscape—with metaphors that make the inexplicable aspects of dementia relatable. For Peter, cycling is like “a balloon that takes me high into the sky”—a momentary escape from the limitations of his diagnosis.

In this episode, Camila returns to Grief Out Loud six years after her first appearance to share how grief continues to evolve. What began with the sudden loss of her mother at age 21 has now expanded to include the ongoing grief of caregiving for her father, who is living with dementia and Alzheimer's disease.  Camila discusses the unique challenges of long-distance caregiving, the differences between sudden loss and gradual decline, and how these two types of grief intersect in her life. She also discusses navigating major life milestones—including getting married during the pandemic—without her mother's presence.  We Discuss: The difference between sudden loss and the "slow grief" of watching a parent decline  How grief has shifted in the 15+ years since her mother's unexpected death Losing her father as the co-archivist of her mother's life and their family history Managing long-distance caregiving The failures of the elder care system in the U.S. The role of chosen family and support Wedding planning and the question of how to honor her mother's memory  The complexity of being a queer person in traditionally heteronormative grief support spaces  Feeling like she no longer has parents, even though her father is still alive  The therapeutic value of pets  Finding moments of connection and joy with her father despite his condition  Using poetry as a processing tool for grief  About the Guest:  Camila is a poet who has published three books of poetry:  The Progression of Grief (about losing her mother)  New Waters (about falling in love and healthy relationships)  The Longevity of Grief (about caring for her father and how different types of grief intersect) This episode is the third in our 2025 three-part series highlighting the voices of communities who have historically been underrepresented in the grief world. The series is part of an ongoing collaboration between Dougy Center and The New York Life Foundation. We are deeply grateful for New York Life Foundation's tireless support and advocacy for children and teens who are grieving. Grief Out Loud is a production of Dougy Center, the National Grief Center for Children and Families in Portland, Oregon.

There are more toxic byproducts in food dyes than in many drugs. These synthetic food colorants have never been tested long-term for biological effects in humans! Many food dyes have been banned in Europe, but are still used in the U.S. Junk food industries that sell products with food dyes are heavily self-regulated, so the FDA allows them to perform their own studies. In 2021, there was a petition to ban red dye number 3 in cosmetics because it's a carcinogen even in small amounts, but it can still be found in your child's cereal. Artificial food coloring has been shown to cause hyperactivity in children and other neurological issues. Food dyes are often used for their psychological effects. Studies have shown that people will choose to eat more of a food because of its color.Natural pigments in our food have antioxidant properties, anti-inflammatory effects, help protect your cells, and protect the mitochondria. You can also get these phytonutrients when you consume grass-fed beef or lamb. Methylene blue is a synthetic, petroleum-based food dye that benefits your health. It was one of the first drugs ever developed, and unlike other artificial food dyes, methylene blue is pharmaceutical grade. It's been used for Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, bladder infections, cancer, and more.Methylene blue is chemically different from other artificial food dyes. It helps give the body energy, even when there's damage to the mitochondria. It's beneficial for degenerative neurological disorders and reduces oxidative stress associated with cancer and mitochondrial damage. Artificial food coloring does not have the benefits of the pigments found naturally in food. They don't act as antioxidants or reduce inflammation in the body. They damage the mitochondria, and they don't have nutritional cofactors.Artificial food dyes have been linked to ADD and tumors in rats. They can cause leaky gut, and their effects are worsened when combined with preservatives and other food chemicals. Some food dyes are bioaccumulative, which means they build up in the body. The kidneys effectively eliminate methylene blue, so it doesn't accumulate.Dr. Eric Berg DC Bio:Dr. Berg, age 60, is a chiropractor who specializes in Healthy Ketosis & Intermittent Fasting. He is the author of the best-selling book The Healthy Keto Plan, and is the Director of Dr. Berg Nutritionals. He no longer practices, but focuses on health education through social media.

In honor of Father's Day, this episode is a little different—and definitely one of the most emotional ever shared on the show. Chalene's husband, Bret, opens up about a visit with his dad, Bob, who's been living with Alzheimer's. It was a tough day, and Bret doesn't hold back when describing just how heartbreaking and disorienting this disease can be—not just for the person diagnosed, but for everyone who loves them. What follows is a beautiful recording Bret made during a car ride with his dad on one of his good days. It's tender, it's honest, and it'll absolutely make you reflect on the importance of saying the things that matter—while there's still time. Get ready for tears… and maybe a reminder to call someone you love.
