Podcasts about alzheimer's disease

https://slasrpodcast.com/      SLASRPodcast@gmail.com  Welcome to Episode 223 of the Sounds Like a Search and Rescue podcast. This week we're joined by Dave, who's back with us and may or may not finally decide whether he's going public with his last name. We've got some follow-up on Great Britain versus the United Kingdom, more coyote talk as mating season ramps up and how not to get yourself in trouble, a little animal-track trivia now that winter actually showed up, and some positive feedback on Stomp's return. We've got listener shoutouts, including some love for Dave's PSAs, a funny comment about Mike's snow sculpture on Tecumseh, updates on our Alzheimer's 48 Peaks plans — including a potential Mount Adams hike — and a look at what's been happening around New Hampshire with rescues on Camel's Hump, avalanche incidents on Mount Washington, a disturbing number of snowmobile press releases, and new technology being used in long-term missing person cases as we mark the anniversary of Maura Murray's disappearance. Nationally, we'll talk about a K-9 finding a missing child during a bomb cyclone, fatal ski accidents out west and in Europe, and why this winter seems determined to remind people that mountains don't care about your Instagram plans. Plus, we've got gear talk, a dad joke, a music minute featuring Great Grandpa, recent hikes, future plans, and — in our main segment — Dave brings us the wild and surprisingly dark legend of the Silver Virgin Madonna, a New England treasure story that sits right at the intersection of frontier warfare, folklore, and wishful thinking.

In this episode, I sit down with Josh Wageman, PhD, DPT, MPAS, CLS, CSCS — Clinical Lipid Specialist, PA who formerly practiced in Endocrinology, and Medical Science Liaison — to explore the intersection of protecting your healthspan while building wealth and expanding career flexibility as a physician associate. Josh's PhD research focused on cholesterol disturbances in Alzheimer's disease, and he's widely known for his ability to teach complex lipid physiology in a relatable, practical way. We break down cholesterol and cardiovascular risk without the overwhelm, discussing which labs and screening strategies are truly worth the cost and effort — and when age or family history should factor into the decision. He also shares what inspired him to write The Home Security System and the Lipid Neighborhood, how writing can serve as both education and diversified income while having a meaningful impact, and why clinicians don't have to feel boxed into a single career path. From becoming a Medical Science Liaison (MSL) to building credibility beyond the clinic, this episode highlights how health, impact, and optionality can work together. If you've ever wondered how to better understand cholesterol, prevent heart attacks, strokes, and dementia, or expand your career beyond traditional clinical roles, this conversation is for you.

The documentary, ‘My Mama Joe, Hope & Help' follows the story of JoeAnna Caldwell and her family of caregivers after she's diagnosed with early onset Alzheimer's disease. STLPR's Marissanne Lewis-Thompson spoke with Herb Caldwell – the film's producer and JoeAnna's son – about the film, why education around the disease matters, and the moment he noticed a change.

In this episode, Trissell Hutchinson discusses exercise cueing strategies tailored to different subtypes of dementia. The conversation covers the four most common subtypes: Alzheimer's disease, vascular dementia, Lewy body dementia, and frontotemporal dementia. Each subtype is explored in terms of its characteristics, symptoms, and specific cues that can enhance patient care and therapy outcomes. The importance of understanding these differences is emphasized to provide effective support for individuals with dementia.   00:00Understanding Dementia: An Overview 02:23Alzheimer's Disease: Key Characteristics and Cues 04:46Vascular Dementia: Variability in Symptoms and Cues 06:11Lewy Body Dementia: Processing and Emotional Support 11:49Frontotemporal Dementia: Behavior and Language Variants   Original published on PTonICE Jan 21 2026 

The most misunderstood symptoms of Alzheimer's and dementia are behavioral changes such as agitation, aggression, and social withdrawal. Author Lisa Skinner, in her book Truth, Lies & Alzheimer's: Its Secret Faces, identifies these as the "secret faces" of the disease—non-verbal communication used when a patient can no longer express physical pain or fear through words. Families often mistake these for personality flaws rather than neurological symptoms. While standard medical advice often focuses on "reality orientation"—constantly correcting a patient's confusion—Skinner advocates for an unconventional path that prioritizes emotional peace of mind over factual accuracy. This approach meets the patient in their own reality to reduce dementia-related distress, shifting the focus from clinical management to emotional validation. The "Truth vs. Lie" dynamic is a cornerstone of this compassionate care model. Skinner argues that "therapeutic fibbing" is often the kinder choice. Forcing a patient to face a painful truth, such as the death of a spouse decades ago, causes them to relive traumatic grief repeatedly. Entering their world to provide comfort is a more humane alternative than a truth that causes unnecessary psychological harm. In the realm of regenerative medicine, as highlighted in Skinner's work with Dr. Anand Srivastava, the narrative of brain diagnoses is shifting from inevitable decline toward potential cellular repair. Advances in stem cell research and cellular rejuvenation offer a future where "devastating" diagnoses are viewed through the lens of biological mitigation and neuro-regeneration rather than just symptom management. For caregivers navigating the "relentless pace" of the caregiver's gauntlet, the most immediate mental health shift is to Release the Guilt. Recognizing that "you cannot pour from an empty cup" is essential. Skinner emphasizes that accepting personal limitations and acknowledging that "good enough" care is more sustainable than perfectionist burnout is the first step toward reclaiming mental well-being.

For this episode, the Activist Lab welcomes The Right Honourable Former First Minister of Scotland Henry McLeish and USF College of Public Health Dean Sten Vermund who discuss Alzheimer's Disease in the US and Scotland, Scotland' several initiatives and programs such as the Scottish Brain Health and Dementia Research Strategy Oversight Board, and how students and advocates can work together for greater brain health for all.   Guests:  The Right Honourable Henry McLeish and Dr. Sten Vermund, Dean, USF College of Public Health.

Your body is detoxifying every second of every day. The real question is: are you helping that process… or overloading it?If you're navigating chronic or serious illness, your body is carrying a heavy load — medications, inflammation, environmental exposures, metabolic waste - so it's essential you understand how to support detox properly.In this episode of Renegade Remission, we explore how detoxification truly works in the body — from liver biotransformation and bile flow to gut elimination, kidney filtration, lymphatic circulation, and even the role of movement and sweat.You'll hear a medically documented case of fatty liver disease reversing through lifestyle changes that reduced liver burden and restored detox capacity.This conversation bridges the gap between conventional dismissal of “detox” and the hype-driven extremes of the wellness world. Detox is real. It's biochemical. And when supported correctly, it can meaningfully reduce inflammatory load and metabolic stress.In this episode, you'll discover:How your liver's two-phase detox system actually worksWhy gut health determines whether detox is completed or recycledThe overlooked role of hydration and kidney filtrationHow movement supports lymphatic drainage and detoxificationWhat sweating can (and can't) contributeWhy reducing toxic burden is more powerful than extreme cleansesSimple, research-supported ways to improve detox capacityIf you are living with cancer, autoimmune disease, neurological illness, heart disease, or another chronic condition, supporting detox isn't optional, it's foundational.Listen now to learn how to reduce your body's burden and support its natural detox pathways in ways that are sustainable, science-backed, and gentle.Disclaimer This podcast is for educational purposes only and does not provide medical advice. Always consult your licensed healthcare provider before making changes to your diet, supplements, sauna use, or treatment plan. Detox protocols are not appropriate for everyone, especially those who are medically fragile or undergoing active treatment.This podcast explores science and stories related to cancer, dementia, Alzheimer's, MS, ALS, heart disease, autoimmune conditions, chronic illness, integrative medicine, lifestyle medicine, remission, and resilience — offering grounded hope for those seeking practical ways to support healing.

Patrick Bet-David and Rhonda Patrick explore the link between bilingualism and delayed Alzheimer's. They break down brain-derived neurotrophic factor, novelty, mental stimulation, dopamine, synapse strength, and how learning languages or building mental maps can protect long-term brain health.

In this episode, I sit down with neuroscientist Dr. Louisa Nicola to unpack what women actually need to know about Alzheimer's risk, cognitive decline, and long term brain protection. We break down APOE genetics, advanced blood biomarkers that can now detect amyloid and tau with remarkable accuracy, and why brain health is inseparable from metabolic health. Louisa explains how muscle acts as a metabolic sink for glucose, why resistance training and high intensity intervals stimulate BDNF, and how sleep drives the glymphatic system to clear amyloid from the brain.

(Originally recorded July 28, 2024 for another podcast Corinna once hosted, Nutrition Without Compromise — shared with permission.) Aging is often framed as inevitable decline. But what if much of what we call “aging” is actually preventable disease accumulation? In this essential re-release episode, Corinna Bellizzi sits down with Michael Greger, physician, internationally recognized speaker, and founder of NutritionFacts.org. Dr. Greger's latest book, How Not to Age, builds on the groundbreaking work of How Not to Die and How Not to Diet — translating peer-reviewed science into practical guidance for living longer and healthier. In this conversation, we explore: The difference between lifespan and healthspan Why excess protein may accelerate aging pathways The myth of “incomplete” plant proteins Fish consumption, pollution, and algae-based Omega-3 alternatives Autophagy, spermidine, and cellular repair The role of vitamin B12, vitamin D, and DHA The promise of lifestyle medicine in addressing Alzheimer's and chronic disease This episode launches a curated Care More Be Better re-share series highlighting foundational health conversations that remain deeply relevant today.

Picture two plates. One has leafy greens, colorful vegetables, berries, salmon, whole grains, olive oil, and water. The other has a big steak, butter, and whole milk.Both reflect official government dietary recommendations. But here's the twist: one plate represents what Canada, Sweden, Germany, China, the Netherlands, and India all basically agree on. The other comes from just one country—a country that looked at the same nutrition science and went in a completely different direction.Which country? And why?In Part 3 of our Dietary Guidelines series, Amy takes you on a global tour to uncover why the new U.S. food pyramid is a stark outlier from international consensus.

In the next series of Creating Dementia Solutions episodes, we explore the real-life experiences of individuals and families affected by dementia. Through intimate conversations, each episode shares a unique story — from early memories and the moment of diagnosis to the challenges, small victories, and emotional journeys that follow. Also discussed is the caregiving component - and how folks have stepped into the caregiving role in support of a loved one with dementia.Miles for Memories founder Sherii Sherban begins this seriea of episodes, discussing her personal experiences with dementia and caregiving which led her to found the organization.Episode ResourcesMiles for Memories websiteMiles for Memories technologySherii Sherban talks to Community Matters about MFM technologyMore Creating Dementia Solutions episodesABOUT MILES FOR MEMORIESMiles For Memories is a Calhoun County, Michigan organization created in 2013 to raise awareness and funds for Alzheimer's Disease. Later in 2014, the vision was expanded to include all types of dementia. MFM raises money each year through sponsorships, community events, and grants to gather funds to create local programming for both the person living with dementia and the caregiver. Along with local efforts, 20% of the funds to prevention-related dementia research. Miles for Memories is a committee of 70-plus volunteers and are always looking for more to get involved.

The country has far fewer neurologists than it needs to treat conditions like Alzheimer's disease and stroke, and it's a problem that's only getting worse. Dr Anna Ranta spoke to Corin Dann.

Let's Retire Retirement author Derek Coburn finds the flaws in how we traditionally plan for life after work — and demonstrates how we can do it smarter.Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1286What We Discuss with Derek Coburn:Traditional retirement planning is fundamentally broken. Financial advisors ask when you want to retire, not if you should, leading millions to sacrifice health, happiness, and relationships in pursuit of an arbitrary finish line they never actually chose.By planning to work just 10 years longer, the amount you need to save drops by 96% — from $2,400 per month to $110 — freeing up money and energy to actually live your life now rather than deferring it indefinitely.Alzheimer's and dementia are the "iceberg to your financial plan's Titanic." These conditions don't kill you quickly, meaning care costs can drain family resources for years, and your parents' health has a direct impact on your retirement security.The pursuit of happiness as a direct goal actually backfires. Research shows people prioritizing personal pleasure get sicker and die sooner, while those driven by purpose and meaning experience lower inflammation and stronger immunity.You likely have more freedom than you realize. Finding work you don't hate, even part-time, lets you stay engaged, maintain purpose, and enjoy the compounding benefits of extra years while spending more time with the people who matter most.And much more...And if you're still game to support us, please leave a review here — even one sentence helps!

Your gray hair, thinning lashes, brain fog, and that low energy feeling after 30 might all trace back to one thing: falling NAD and stressed mitochondria. This episode breaks down what actually happens inside your cells as NAD declines, and what you can do about it using specific compounds from mushrooms, olive oil, and even chocolate. -Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR -Subscribe and save $15 on Wonderfeel by going to: https://getwonderfeel.com/product/wonderfeel-youngr-nmn/?utm_source=Dave&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=episode2Host Dave Asprey sits down with Baran Dilaver, CEO and co-founder of Wonderfeel Biosciences, to unpack the real science behind NAD, mitochondrial energy, and long-term longevity. Baran is an entrepreneur and inventor who previously led multiple start-ups as CEO and COO, collaborated with leading scientists and medical experts, and developed award-winning products. A UC Berkeley economics graduate and former scholarship athlete, he now focuses on translating cutting-edge bioscience into practical tools that enhance people's lives. They break down how NAD powers mitochondria, why your body strategically allocates cellular energy away from peak cognitive performance as you age, and how stress accelerates that decline. You'll hear the differences between niacinamide, NR, and NMN, the FDA confusion around NMN, and why raising NAD is about cellular repair, resilience, and metabolic function, not just “more energy.” The conversation goes deep on hydroxytyrosol, the powerful olive oil polyphenol that acts as a CD38 inhibitor, and ergothioneine, a mushroom-derived antioxidant with its own receptor in the human body that can accumulate in damaged tissues. Baran shares the origin story that pushed him to research ergothioneine, along with anecdotal observations from long-term users reporting improvements in sleep, focus, energy, thicker hair, reduced gray hair, and even eyelash regrowth. You'll also hear Dave's practical take on ketosis, fasting, supplements, and metabolism, why he prefers NAD precursors over IV NAD for most people, how methyl donors affect NAD IV tolerance, and why Wonderfeelbuilt a creatine chocolate bar sweetened with allulose to stay keto-friendly and diabetic-friendly. This is biohacking grounded in mechanism, from mitochondria and neuroplasticity to anti-aging strategy and smarter supplementation. You'll Learn: • What NAD does in the body and why oral NAD itself is not effective • How niacinamide, NR, and NMN compare as NAD precursors • Why mitochondria control energy allocation, cognition, and resilience • How hydroxytyrosol may support NAD longevity through CD38 inhibition • What ergothioneine is, why it comes from mushrooms, and why the body has a receptor for it • What long-term users commonly report: better sleep, clearer thinking, stronger energy, and cosmetic shifts • Why Dave prefers supplements over NAD IVs in most cases • How allulose differs from other sweeteners and why it matters for metabolism • Why creatine supports brain energy and how heat changes absorption strategy Thank you to our sponsors! • MASA Chips | Go to https://www.masachips.com/DAVEASPREY and use code DAVEASPREY for 25% off your first order • Branch Basics | Get 15% off at https://branchbasics.com/DAVE15 with code DAVE15 • Timeline | Go to timeline.com/Dave for 20% off• OneSkin | Try OneSkin at https://www.oneskin.co/DAVE and use code DAVE for 15% off Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking.

All Home Care Matters and our host, Lance A. Slatton were honored to welcome Dan Goerke as guest to the show.   About Dan Goerke:   Dan Goerke grew up in northern Indiana and currently lives in Atlanta, Georgia. He has led a life of varied endeavors and accomplishments in competitive swimming, real estate, volunteer work with the Alzheimer's Association, is a Reiki Master, candle maker and author.   Dan suddenly found himself a caregiver to his wife Denise upon her diagnosis at age 56 of Alzheimer's Disease. Uninformed and uneducated about the disease he quickly utilized the resources of the Alzheimer's Association to learn more about the disease progression, caregiving tips and practices, support groups, and elder care attorneys. Two years into his caregiving journey he began communicating telepathically with Denise which aided tremendously in her care.   Dan now offers private sessions to those who want to hear from their loved ones who have gone silent. He has appeared in over 40 different media publications and programs talking about dementia, caregiving, and telepathic communication. He was most recently featured on an episode of "The Telepathy Tapes" podcast.   Dan's first book, "Unforgettable, Unbelievable", was inspired by many friends and family members who encouraged him to write about his caregiving experiences while taking care of his wife Denise.   About "Unforgettable, Unbelievable":   "Unforgettable, Unbelievable: A Journey of Telepathy, Caregiving, and Alzheimer's" follows Dan Goerke as he discovers he can communicate telepathically with his wife Denise, whose Alzheimer's has taken away her ability to speak clearly. This unexpected connection allows Denise to guide him from the "inside," sharing practical tricks and preferences that make day-to-day caregiving more effective and more dignified for her.   Through this lens of telepathy, Dan describes the emotional and physical challenges of caregiving while offering concrete tips for both new and experienced caregivers, blending a realistic view of Alzheimer's with humor and warmth. The book ultimately becomes a portrait of a devoted marriage in the face of decline, showing how love, creativity, and even seemingly mystical experiences can help families navigate the silence that often comes with advanced dementia.    

Hey HBs! It's time for part 2! When we left you yesterday, our bloodthirsty baddies had just had sex for the first time while Nolan was super high on magic mushrooms that Harper slipped him. She told him to fuck her like he hates her and boy did he deliver. Now, he's crossed the emotional Rubicon and is ready to worship at her feet. Meanwhile, she coyote-uglied her way out of there as fast as possible and doesn't quite know what to do with herself. That's where we're jumping in! TW: depictions of caring for an elder loved one with dementia/Alzheimer's. Oh and, like, brutal murder, drowning, dismemberment, and more. Look, man, it's a Brynn Weaver book. Bonus Content: he's her Lancelot now and she's not getting the memo, tempting fate with an Amelia Earhart theme, preserving your crush in their greatest form, and so much more! Lady Loves: Sabrina: Real life connections. They'll be there for you every time. Mel: get your government documents in order! If you can, get an official copy of your birth certificate, get or update your passport, and CALL YOUR SENATOR and tell them to vote NO on this bullshit "Save America" act that's being pushed right now. The congressional switchboard is (202) 224-3121. This bill gets rid of mail-in voting, it requires people to register to vote IN PERSON, and they will have to provide "proof" of citizenship in which all names need to match up. So, a married woman who changed her name will not be able to register to vote if she  doesn't also have official documents that verify that change (marriage certificate, divorce decree, name change declaration, etc.). This boils down to an effort to stop women and impoverished people from voting. And it's a sneaky poll tax because all these documents cost money. Want to support the show?

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD+) is central to cellular energy and mitochondrial health, driving redox reactions that produce ATP. Declining levels are linked to metabolic disorders, sarcopenia, and diabetes Alzheimer's disease has strongly associated with disrupted NAD+ balance, and research suggests restoring intake can reverse cognitive decline rather than merely slowing disease progression Animal studies show restoring NAD+ fully reversed advanced Alzheimer's features, including memory loss, inflammation, tau pathology, oxidative stress, and DNA damage, even after severe disease was established NAD+ functions as an upstream regulator of brain resilience, coordinating energy production, DNA repair, inflammation control, and protein processing, reframing Alzheimer's as a systems-level energy failure Practical strategies emphasize testing NAD+ status and supporting production safely via niacinamide alongside adequate intake of other B vitamins

Most people fear cancer, but they're never given a clear explanation of what it actually is, how it progresses, or why metastasis, not the initial tumor, is what kills 90% of people with solid tumors. And here's what almost no one talks about…30 minutes of exercise per day can down-regulate 13 types of cancers. I break down the biology of cancer and metastasis in plain language, then walk you through the evidence linking exercise to cancer outcomes across prevention, treatment, and survivorship. I explain how cancer cells have to physically enter circulation and survive a hostile journey to metastasize, and here's the part that changed how I think about high-intensity exercise: as shear stress increases during vigorous exercise (zone 5, 90%+ max heart rate), survival of circulating tumor cells decreases. I also cover immune surveillance, metabolic signaling, and why this is deeply personal for me.

"Since the 80s, we've been brainwashed to believe that eggs are bad for us, butter is bad for us, dairy is bad for us, red meat is bad for us. And it's just not true." If you've been told your cholesterol is "too high"... if you're on a statin drug and wondering if it's actually helping... if you care about preventing heart disease instead of just managing it... this episode is your wake-up call. It's Heart Health Month, and Dr. Terri is cutting through decades of misinformation to reveal what's REALLY driving cardiovascular disease — and it's not cholesterol. From the gut-heart connection to the six hormones that could save your life, this is the heart health conversation your doctor probably isn't having with you. Here's the truth: "The highest gross revenue producing drug in the history of drugs — billions of dollars — and since they've come out in the 80s, cardiovascular disease rates and death from cardiovascular disease have actually gotten worse, not better." WHAT YOU'LL DISCOVER: → Why heart disease is a disease of INFLAMMATION, not cholesterol → The shocking truth about statin drugs — and why heart disease has gotten WORSE since the 80s → How cholesterol-lowering drugs are literally shrinking your brain (the brain is 70% cholesterol) → The connection between statins, insulin resistance, and Alzheimer's (now called Type 3 Diabetes) → Why "all disease begins in the gut" — Hippocrates said it 2,000 years ago and it's still true → How estradiol reduced cardiovascular disease progression by 50% in women who already had plaque → Why testosterone is powerfully protective for men's hearts (not just for energy and muscle) → The one organ that can't make its own T3 thyroid hormone — your heart → Why your "normal" lab ranges are based on a sick population (and what optimal ACTUALLY looks like) → The phone scrolling habit that's destroying your melatonin AND your heart health → The inverse relationship between cortisol and DHEA that's wrecking your cardiovascular system → The vitamin D level that triggers a 5x cancer risk and 160% increased cardiovascular disease risk → The 6 hormones you need optimized for true heart disease prevention This isn't about managing heart disease with more prescriptions. It's about understanding the root cause — inflammation — and optimizing the hormones your body needs to protect itself. YOUR ACTION STEPS: Get a deep-dive lipid panel (particle size, ApoA, ApoB), check your hormone levels, ask about a coronary artery calcium score, and focus on OPTIMAL — not just "normal." TIMESTAMPS: 0:00 - Intro: It's Heart Health Month 2:15 - Heart disease is NOT a cholesterol problem 4:20 - The statin drug soapbox: billions in revenue, worse outcomes 6:40 - How statins are connected to Alzheimer's and insulin resistance 7:55 - It all begins in the gut: inflammation and lipid polysaccharides 9:05 - The one statin study — and why it doesn't apply to everyone 10:20 - Estrogen: a powerfully protective anti-inflammatory molecule 11:25 - The study showing 50% reduction in plaque progression with estrogen 14:05 - Testosterone: protective for cardiovascular disease in men 14:45 - Thyroid: the heart can't make its own T3 16:15 - Why "normal" lab ranges are based on sick populations 17:15 - Optimal Free T3 levels and what pediatric data actually shows 17:50 - Melatonin: the hormone you're destroying with your phone 19:10 - DHEA: the cortisol-DHEA inverse relationship 20:25 - Vitamin D: the hormone-like molecule with massive cardiovascular impact 21:20 - Recap: The 6 hormones for heart disease prevention ---- The Dr. Terri Show is presented by EVEXIAS Health Solutions.

So much of what we know about heart health is based on male models. Classic heart attack symptoms describe the experiences of men, drugs were developed largely by men for men—even in research, mouse models were male. But in recent years, our understanding of women's cardiac health has expanded, and critically, we have learned that we cannot simply apply male models to female patients. As one of our guests says, "women are not small men." For American Heart Month, join us for a heart-to-heart with members of the SNMMI Cardiovascular Council as they discuss how nuclear cardiology is providing new insight into women's heart health.

Postmarketing experience included anaphylactic reactions. Because these reactions are reported voluntarily from a population of uncertain size, it is not always possible to reliably estimate their frequency or establish a causal relationship to drug exposure.Prior to VIZAMYL administration, please read the full Prescribing Information for additional Important Safety Information: https://gehealthcare.com/vizamyl-pi

Think your brain has to slow down with age? We push back hard with science, stories, and a step-by-step plan that has helped patients regain clarity in weeks, not years. Our guest, Dr Majid Fotuhi, a Harvard- and Hopkins-trained neurologist who has treated thousands of patients, explains why common forgetfulness isn't the same as cognitive decline and how simple daily choices can restore sharpness at any age.We break brain health down to four core levers: increase blood flow, reduce inflammation, enhance the brain's cleaning systems, and minimize plaques and tangles. Then we map those levers to five daily pillars you can actually do: exercise, sleep, nutrition, stress reduction, and learning. You'll hear why exercise is the highest-yield habit for cognition, how BDNF acts like fertilizer for the hippocampus, and what happens when sugar spikes and insulin resistance quietly shrink your memory center. We also get practical about sustainable nutrition, from curbing glucose swings to deciding whether keto is worth it for your lifestyle.Beyond biology, we dig into the mindsets that keep the brain young. Boredom—of the unplugged, daydreaming kind—can unlock creativity and problem solving. A clear sense of purpose measurably lowers dementia and stroke risk while making healthy choices easier to keep. We share the telltale red flags (like repeating questions) versus normal lapses (like misplacing keys), plus the personalized assessment approach that uncovered treatable factors in patients who feared Alzheimer's. If you want a realistic timeline, expect noticeable gains in about 12 weeks when you dial in the five pillars.Ready to build a resilient, younger brain? Follow the five pillars, personalize your plan, and start today with one small step—take a brisk walk, protect your sleep window, or learn something challenging you actually enjoy.

In Episode 126 Joe speaks with Sue Peschin, President and CEO of the Alliance for Aging Research, about what Alzheimer's and dementia look like in the real world and how policy determines who gets help and when.  Sue explains the mission and 40–year history of the Alliance for Aging Research and lays out the scope of the Alzheimer's crisis in plain language: who is affected, how dementia types differ, and why neuropsychiatric symptoms like agitation, psychosis, and depression are so often ignored in policy and practice. They discuss why early detection matters more than ever now that disease-modifying therapies and amyloid inhibitors exist, and why so many cases are still missed in primary care. Sue walks through new blood biomarkers, digital cognitive assessments, and how Medicare coverage, CED restrictions, and the proposed ASAP Act will shape access to testing and treatment. Joe and Sue also dig into Coverage with Evidence Development (CED) in Medicare, whether CMS is overstepping what Congress intended under Section 1801, and how restrictive coverage decisions have limited access to Alzheimer's drugs to a tiny fraction of eligible patients. Finally, they talk about caregiver burden, stigma around behavioral symptoms, and what families and clinicians can realistically do today. If you care about Alzheimer's, dementia, early detection, blood biomarkers, Medicare coverage, CED, the ASAP Act, primary care, caregiver burden, vascular dementia, and aging research, this episode connects the science with the politics and the lived experience. In This ConversationJoe and Sue cover: What the Alliance for Aging Research is and why it focuses on “gap” aging and brain health issues How many Americans are living with Alzheimer's and dementia, including younger-onset cases The difference between Alzheimer's, vascular dementia, and other dementias, and why neuropsychiatric symptoms matter Why early and accurate detection is critical, even before someone qualifies for a disease-modifying therapy New tools: blood-based biomarkers, digital assessments, PET scans, and when they are used How Medicare coverage, Coverage with Evidence Development (CED), and the ASAP Act affect access to diagnostics and treatments The tension between FDA's role on safety and effectiveness and CMS's role on cost control and coverage Timestamps (Audio platforms) 0:00 Intro and Sue's background / Alliance for Aging Research 5:30 How big is the Alzheimer's and dementia problem 10:30 Why early detection matters and why diagnoses are still missed 18:30 Neuropsychiatric symptoms, stigma, and caregiver burden 26:30 Blood biomarkers, digital tools, and primary care 33:30 The ASAP Act and Medicare coverage for biomarkers 38:30 Coverage with Evidence Development (CED) and Section 1801 45:00 How to get involved and where to find resources Key Takeaways Alzheimer's is one of several dementias, and many patients have mixed dementia (Alzheimer's plus vascular changes). Early detection is vital, not only for disease-modifying therapies, but to rule out other treatable causes and to help families plan. New blood biomarkers and digital assessments could make detection cheaper and easier, but coverage and adoption lag behind the science. Medicare's CED policy has sharply limited access to Alzheimer's therapies despite FDA approval and labeled indications. The ASAP Act aims to secure Medicare coverage for Alzheimer's blood-based biomarkers without waiting on slow guideline processes. About Our GuestSue Peschin is President and CEO of the Alliance for Aging Research, the leading nonprofit focused on advancing science, policy, and education to improve healthy aging and access to care. At the Alliance, Sue has driven national work on Alzheimer's, dementia, neuropsychiatric symptoms, Medicare policy, CED reform, and aging research, empowering older adults and caregivers to advocate for better care.

BrainStorm wants to hear from you! Send us a text.Alzheimer's disease is no longer just a memory problem — it's a biological, cultural, and ethical challenge reshaping how we think about aging, identity, and medicine. In this episode of Brainstorm by UsAgainstAlzheimers, host Meryl Comer sits down with Dr. Jason Karlawish, professor of medicine, medical ethics, health policy, and neurology at the University of Pennsylvania. They explore how Alzheimer's evolved from a rare condition into a full-blown public health crisis. Dr. Karlawish unpacks the science behind biomarker testing and early detection, the promise and complexity of new anti-amyloid treatments, and why so many physicians remain reluctant to diagnose cognitive decline at all. From health equity gaps that leave Latino and African American patients chronically underserved, to the ethical weight of disclosing an Alzheimer's diagnosis to someone still in the middle of their career, Dr. Karlawish brings both scientific precision and moral seriousness to one of medicine's most urgent conversations. It's a candid, wide-ranging discussion about what it truly means to confront a disease that strikes at the heart of who we are.

For decades, researchers have noted that Alzheimer's disease and cancer rarely occur in the same person, sparking speculation that one may protect against the other Now, scientists have identified a protein produced by cancer cells that appears to shield the brain from Alzheimer's, at least in mice, offering new clues to the link between the two diseases. Dr Donald Weaver is a Professor of Chemistry and Senior Scientist of the Krembil Research Institute. He chats to Jesse

Awareness about treatment options for depression, anxiety and other mental health concerns is increasing across Rural America, but awareness about the options to treat brain health issues such as concussions, brain fog, dementia or Alzheimer's Disease aren't as prevalent. Tiffany Hoeft is a speech-language pathologist, board certified neurofeedback specialist, certified brain injury specialist and owner of Minds Matter in Aberdeen.

"It is physiologically contraindicated for nurses to remain in practice" Nurses Uncorked welcomes back Dr. Lorre Laws PhD, RN to the podcast. In this episode, Nurse Erica shares her personal journey as the primary caregiver for her mother with Alzheimer's Disease. This conversation delves into the impact of unintegrated trauma on nurses and the necessity for self-compassion to aid in recovery. The discussion highlights the silent epidemic of nurse-specific trauma and how it affects nurses' mental and physical health. The statistics reveal high rates of PTSD, depression, substance abuse, and suicide among nurses. The conversation emphasizes the need for a deeper understanding of the nervous system and the importance of addressing personal and professional struggles faced by healthcare workers. The discussion also touches on trauma education lacking in nursing programs and asks the question - are nurses being traumatized to monetize? Interested in Sponsoring the Show?

Sonya shares what life looked like before the diagnosis, the early signs that something wasn't right, and the emotional shift that occurred when she became her mother's full-time caregiver, stepping into what she describes as "becoming the mother of my mother." In this deeply moving episode, we're joined by Sonya Jury, a transformational leader, speaker, entrepreneur, and Certified EOS (Entrepreneuer Operating System) Implementer known for her ability to connect the dots and turn complexity into clarity. While Sonya helps organizations bring vision to life professionally, she also brings a powerful and deeply personal perspective shaped by her years as a caregiver for her mother. We talk about Sonya's book, Mom Forgot My Birthday, written after what she candidly calls "riding the dementia train" with her mom. The title captures the heartbreak, confusion, and reality of Alzheimer's, and the book itself is structured around the three stages of the disease: early, middle, and late. Sonya reflects on how her relationship with her mother evolved through each stage- from uncertainty and frustration to grief, acceptance, and profound love. Throughout the conversation, Sonya blends her natural leadership lens with deep compassion, offering clarity for listeners who may be worried about their own parents or loved ones. She shares common warning signs of Alzheimer's, the very first step to take if concerns arise, and what she wishes she had known earlier- lessons she now offers to help others navigate caregiving with more resilience, understanding, and grace. Sonya's story is honest, tender, and deeply human. This episode offers both practical guidance and emotional reassurance for caregivers, family members, and anyone seeking to better understand dementia and Alzheimer's — reminding us that even in loss, there can be clarity, connection, and compassion. In this episode, we discuss: Early signs of Alzheimer's and dementia How caregiving reshapes family roles and relationships The emotional realities of each stage of the disease What to do if you're concerned about a loved one Lessons learned after five years as a caregiver The heart behind Mom Forgot My Birthday Listen now for a powerful conversation about leadership, caregiving, love, and honoring those we care for even as memories fade.

Can something as simple as changing when you eat actually influence inflammation, immune function, and cellular repair?Fasting is often portrayed as either a miracle cure or a dangerous trend. But what does it really do inside the body, especially if you're facing a chronic or serious illness?In this episode of Renegade Remission, we explore the real science behind fasting and metabolic therapy.You'll learn what happens biologically when the body shifts its fuel source, how fasting influences autophagy and inflammation, and why some long-term survivors include gentle metabolic strategies as part of their healing approach.We'll also examine a documented glioblastoma case in which metabolic therapy was used alongside conventional treatment, not as a replacement, but as a supportive layer. This conversation cuts through hype and fear to give you clarity.In this episode, you'll discover:What autophagy is and why it matters for cellular repairHow time-restricted eating can stabilize blood sugar and reduce inflammatory stressWhy ketones act as signaling molecules, not just fuelThe connection between glucose spikes and immune dysfunctionHow short-term fasting influences IGF-1 and cellular stress resistanceWhy most benefits come from gentle shifts, not extreme deprivationMost importantly, you'll learn how to support your metabolic health in ways that feel sustainable and safe, without rigid rules, starvation, or added stress on your body.Listen now to understand whether fasting or metabolic strategies might be supportive on your healing journey and how to implement simple, safe shifts starting today.If you are navigating cancer, autoimmune disease, neurological illness, heart disease, or another serious diagnosis, this episode will help you approach metabolic therapy with clarity instead of confusion.DisclaimerThis podcast is for educational purposes only and does not provide medical advice. Always consult your licensed healthcare provider before making changes to your diet, fasting practices, or treatment plan. Fasting is not appropriate for everyone, especially those who are underweight, medically fragile, pregnant, or undergoing active treatment without supervision.This podcast explores science and stories related to cancer, MS, ALS, dementia, Alzheimer's, heart disease, autoimmune conditions, chronic illness, terminal diagnoses, metabolic therapy, integrative medicine, lifestyle medicine, and remission, offering grounded hope and practical tools for resilience and renewal.

The blood-brain barrier is a tightly locked network of cells that protects and defends the brain from harmful substances and pathogens that could cause damage. While this barrier serves to protect our brains, in the case of finding cures for Alzheimer's and Parkinson's, the blood-brain barrier has been a big obstacle.  Enter research from Shikha Nangia, the Milton and Anne Stevenson endowed professor of biomedical and chemical engineering and department chair in the College of Engineering and Computer Science. Working with undergraduate, graduate and post-doctoral students, the Nangia Research Lab uses theoretical and computational techniques to determine how to best enable the transport of drug molecules across the blood-brain barrier. Nangia's research led to the creation of the first molecular model depicting what the blood-brain barrier looks like, which has proven helpful in identifying what can and what cannot pass through the narrow tunnel into the brain.Understanding that Alzheimer's and cancer treatments are too large to pass through the blood-brain tunnel, Nangia's group is advancing research to find a cure for Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases. On this episode, Nangia will explain the findings of her research, share how students help advance this work, discuss how the Interactive Biomaterials Research Experiences for Undergraduates site on campus prepares participants for successful careers in science and engineering, and explores her role as a Syracuse University Art Museum faculty fellow.

#689: Most people think forgetting a name means their brain is failing.  Dr. Majid Fotuhi, a neurologist who taught at Johns Hopkins and Harvard, sees thousands of patients convinced they have Alzheimer's – only to discover they're dealing with poor sleep or stress. Dr. Fotuhi joins us to break down the difference between cognitive decline, dementia and Alzheimer's disease. He explains why chronic stress physically shrinks your hippocampus — the thumb-sized memory center in your brain — and how twelve weeks of lifestyle changes reversed cognitive decline in 84 percent of his patients. We talk about the five hidden taxes draining your brain: sedentary lifestyle, poor sleep, junk food, chronic stress and mental laziness. Scrolling social media after work counts as mental laziness, even if your day job involves intense focus. Dr. Fotuhi offers a different framework: five pillars that compound over time. Exercise ranks first because it multiplies mitochondria in your brain cells, reduces inflammation and generates new neurons in your hippocampus. Walking 10,000 steps daily cuts Alzheimer's risk by 50 percent. Sleep comes second. Your brain rinses itself during deep sleep, flushing out amyloid — the core protein in Alzheimer's disease. One night of poor sleep increases amyloid in your brain. We cover nutrition (skip the junk food debate), mindset (heart rate variability breathing reduces Alzheimer's footprints) and brain training. Dr. Fotuhi memorizes 70 names in a single lecture and explains his technique for remembering credit card numbers using mental imagery. The conversation covers London taxi drivers who grew their hippocampus by memorizing 10,000 streets, why stress management beats supplements, and how Swedish students learning Arabic increased their brain volume in three months.
