In a conversation that challenges stereotypes and brings to light the unexpected realities of caregiving, this episode reveals the experiences of three men who stepped up to care for their mothers with dementia. It's a heartfelt exploration of grief, growth, and the bonds that are both tested and strengthened through caregiving. Shattering Stereotypes: Men as Caregivers We often associate caregiving with daughters, wives, and sisters, yet over 40% of caregivers are men. Many of them, like guests David Bredbenner, Alfredo Botello, and Vincent Zappacosta, find themselves in this role simply because "there really was no other option." Their stories reveal that caregiving isn't just a woman's job—it's a human one. Vincent shares, “My mother and I were always close and I just didn't trust anyone else to take care of her, because nobody knew her as well as I did.” David talks about “reacting, firefighting, and suddenly you're just drawn in, and before you know it, it becomes part of your routine.” Alfredo, navigating life as an only child, speaks honestly about how necessity and love for his mother collided the moment his stepfather passed away. Lifestyle Overhauls and Personal Sacrifice For each son, caring for their mothers led to seismic shifts in their daily lives. Plans are always tentative, boundaries are tested, and a new form of “parenting” emerges. As Alfredo vividly describes: “Nobody told me growing up that I'd have another kid in my 50s—only she'd be in her 80s and have opinions!” From rearranging work schedules to leaving reassuring Post-its for an anxious parent, the logistics become second nature, though the emotional toll lingers. The men openly discuss balancing frustration, guilt, and even resentment with deep love. They offer comfort in recognizing that no one is “superhuman”: “It's almost like we do expect ourselves to be perfect...and that never happened,” Christy reflects. While the stories in “Sons Caring for Mothers” circle around men, the lessons ring true for anyone on a caregiving journey. There are no perfect solutions, only the imperfect, beautiful bonds of love, memory, and forgiveness. After the Podcast Learn more about David, Vincent, and Alfredo and purchase their books here.

In this episode we welcome three GBHI Fellows: guest host and filmmaker Michelle Memran, documentary photographer Alex Kornhuber, and social sciences academic Dr Sonata Mačiulskytė. Together they explore the ways in which caregiving, creativity, and change come together in the context of dementia. Drawing on their experiences of supporting loved ones with dementia, they reflect on how these personal journeys have influenced their professional work and shaped their understanding of the disease. The discussion touches on the early signs of dementia, the transformation of relationships through caregiving, and the importance of early diagnosis. The conversation also considers the significance of documenting caregiving experiences and the need to reshape the narrative around dementia. By sharing stories and creative perspectives, the guests highlight how shifting this narrative can foster greater awareness, empathy, and understanding. -- Takeaways • Caregiving is a deeply personal journey that shapes professional work. • Recognising early signs of dementia can be challenging but crucial. • Relationships with loved ones can transform through the caregiving experience. • Early diagnosis can lead to better care and understanding. • Documenting caregiving experiences can foster connection and awareness. • Language and narrative around dementia need to change for better understanding. • Sharing personal stories can help others feel less alone in their caregiving journey. • The experience of dementia is unique to each individual and family. • Advocacy for brain health should start early in life.

Most people track glucose or ketones, but almost no one is measuring the hidden signal that could be silently wrecking your metabolism, brain function, and longevity: uric acid. This episode reveals why this overlooked biomarker drives obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, Alzheimer's, and even accelerated aging—and how you can hack it to unlock resilience, human performance, and smarter not harder health upgrades. Watch the podcast on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR We revisit host Dave Asprey sitting down with Dr. David Perlmutter, one of the world's leading functional medicine neurologists and the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Grain Brain and Drop Acid. Dr. Perlmutter has spent decades connecting gut health, brain optimization, and neuroplasticity with lifestyle interventions that truly change the trajectory of disease. In this conversation, he explains how uric acid acts as a metabolic switch that determines whether you burn fat or store it, whether your mitochondria power you up or slow you down, and whether your brain stays sharp or declines with age. They break down how fructose, purines, alcohol, and even dehydration spike uric acid, why Japan is decades ahead in using this as a health marker, and how supplements like quercetin and luteolin rival pharmaceuticals in keeping it under control. You'll also learn how ketosis, fasting, cold therapy, carnivore and plant-based approaches, and sleep optimization all interact with uric acid to shape your healthspan. This is biohacking at its most actionable—because once you measure this signal, you can control it, and once you control it, you radically upgrade your metabolism, your brain, and your longevity. This is essential listening for anyone serious about hacking their biology, building neuroplasticity, powering up mitochondria, exploring nootropics, and discovering smarter not harder ways to live longer and perform better. You'll Learn: • Why uric acid may be the most important overlooked biomarker for longevity • How it connects obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and Alzheimer's • The evolutionary reason your body uses uric acid as a survival signal • How fructose and hidden sugars sabotage metabolism and brain optimization • The role of quercetin, luteolin, and targeted supplements in lowering uric acid • Why measuring at home with a simple device can change your health trajectory • How functional medicine uses uric acid as a predictive tool for chronic disease Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking. With over 1,000 interviews and 1 million monthly listeners, The Human Upgrade is the top podcast for people who want to take control of their biology, extend their longevity, and optimize every system in the body and mind. Each episode features cutting-edge insights in health, performance, neuroscience, supplements, nutrition, hacking, emotional intelligence, and conscious living. Episodes are released every Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday (audio-only) where Dave asks the questions no one else dares, and brings you real tools to become more resilient, aware, and high performing.

Planning a loved one's burial or cremation is a difficult experience under the best of circumstances. When Diana's stepfather, Cactus, gets sick during the early stages of Alzheimer's and sees a billboard advertising simple cremations for $695 at Sunset Mesa Funeral Home, he requests that his family cremate him and not spend a lot of money. But when Cactus dies and his cremains go missing under mysterious circumstances, it sets off a series of events that not only exacerbates the family's grief, but also tips off a lengthy investigation by Reuters journalists that rocks a small community in western Colorado and exposes the dark, unregulated side of the body trade industry.

“Generativity. Think of it as generating something from yourself and putting it into the world.”   Our hosts, Stephanie McCullough and Kevin Gaines, explore the positive side of aging with Dr. Deborah Heiser, an applied developmental psychologist who pivoted from studying depression and Alzheimer's to researching what we actually have to look forward to as we age. "You can run faster than me, but I'm happier than you." Dr. Heiser's transformation began at a dinner party when someone challenged her: "What do we have to look forward to as we age? You are studying everything that scares us." This moment sparked her journey into understanding generativity—an emotional developmental milestone we reach in midlife where we feel compelled to give back and make our mark on the world. The conversation reveals a powerful truth: we're biologically programmed to become happier and more fulfilled as we age. This isn't the superficial happiness of opening presents, but the deep satisfaction of asking "Did I matter?" and finding ways to generate impact. Whether through podcasting, volunteering, or passing down family recipes on grandmother's index cards, we're all engaging in mentorship, often without realizing it. Dr. Heiser makes a crucial distinction between doing your job and true mentoring. A teacher advising students is working; mentoring happens outside the classroom, through voluntary emotional connections. Her book "The Mentorship Edge" helps readers recognize and quantify their impact, filling what she calls their "impact bank." Most importantly, she reminds us that midlife identity shifts aren't crises but opportunities to pull forgotten aspects of ourselves from the back of the closet and engage parts of our identity we've neglected while surviving our earlier years.   Key Topics: Why We Get Happier as We Age (03:08) Understanding Generativity and the Difference Between Generous and Generative (11:07) Identity Shifts in Midlife (17:11) Family Traditions as Mentorship (22:53) Mentorship vs. Doing Your Job (23:30) Reframing Negative Perspectives on Aging (25:46) Stephanie and Kevin's Wrap-Up (36:30)     Resources: Dr. Deborah Heiser on Psychology Today On LinkedIn Her Website The Mentorship Edge (book)   If you like what you've been hearing, we invite you to subscribe on your favorite platform and leave us a review.

With all the attention focused on Alzheimer's biomarkers and amyloid antibodies, it's easy to forget that comprehensive dementia care is more than blood draws and infusions. On today's podcast, we buck this trend and dive into the complexities and challenges of comprehensive dementia care with the authors of two pivotal articles recently published in JAMA. We've invited David Reuben and Greg Sachs to talk about their two respective trials, published in JAMA — D-CARE and IN-PEACE — aimed at improving the evidence for care models supporting individuals diagnosed with dementia. D-CARE tested the comparative effectiveness of health system-based dementia care, a community-based program, and usual care, while IN-PEACE assessed the addition of palliative care to dementia care programs for individuals with moderate to severe dementia. Despite their pragmatic trial designs and high expectations, both studies' primary outcomes were negative, although there were some intriguing positive secondary outcomes. We discuss how some critical questions about the integration of these findings into practice, and how they fit in with previous research that did show benefits (see this past podcast on using health navigators to improve dementia care).

Growing evidence shows that Alzheimer's risk is shaped not only by genetics but also by culture, environment, and lifestyle — and researchers say these differences may hold the key to better prevention and treatment.Dr. Sid O'Bryant, professor of pharmacology and neuroscience at the University of North Texas, is the principal investigator of the Health & Aging Brain Study – Health Disparities (HABS-HD), the most comprehensive Alzheimer's study ever conducted across African American, Hispanic, and non-Hispanic white communities. His approach brings research into diverse communities often left out of large-scale studies, ensuring that findings reflect the populations most at risk.In this conversation with Being Patient's Mark Niu, O'Bryant explained how factors like diabetes, hypertension, environment, and even social support networks shape brain health. He explained that these findings show why Alzheimer's cannot be treated with a “one size fits all” model. Instead, precision medicine — tailoring prevention and treatment strategies to an individual's genetic, cultural, and lifestyle background — could transform how we approach brain health and Alzheimer's treatments.

Insulin resistance triggers everything from Alzheimer's to erectile dysfunction. Dr. Benjamin Bikman examines the metabolic crisis shared by 50% of America.Full show notes and resources can be found here: jordanharbinger.com/1201What We Discuss with Dr. Benjamin Bikman:Half of US adults have insulin resistance without knowing it. It's the upstream driver of most chronic diseases — from high blood pressure to erectile dysfunction to Alzheimer's — not just diabetes.Medical focus on blood glucose misses the real problem. Insulin levels are rarely tested, yet elevated insulin drives disease years before blood sugar becomes abnormal.Fat cell size matters more than total fat. East Asians develop insulin resistance with less weight gain because they have fewer, larger fat cells versus more, smaller ones in Europeans.Insulin resistance causes brain starvation. When neurons can't access glucose due to insulin resistance, cognition declines — which is why some in the medical community refer to Alzheimer's as "type 3 diabetes."Type 2 diabetes is reversible through carb restriction. In one study, 11 newly diagnosed patients reversed their diabetes in 90 days by eating unlimited protein and fat, just limiting carbs.And much more...And if you're still game to support us, please leave a review here — even one sentence helps!

Alzheimer's is not inevitable—and it may even be optional. In this groundbreaking episode, you'll learn how to prevent, slow, and in some cases reverse cognitive decline using strategies that also enhance brain optimization, metabolism, and longevity. Watch this episode on YouTube for the full video experience: https://www.youtube.com/@DaveAspreyBPR Host Dave Asprey is joined by Dr. Dale Bredesen, a world-renowned neurologist and leading Alzheimer's researcher who has published over 240 peer-reviewed papers. Dr. Bredesen has spent decades proving that Alzheimer's is not a one-pathway disease but a network failure driven by inflammation, toxins, and mitochondrial dysfunction. His protocol has helped thousands of patients regain memory, extend healthspan, and reclaim brain performance. Together, they unpack how biohacking tools like fasting, ketosis, supplements, sleep optimization, cold therapy, and functional medicine can rewire neuroplasticity, protect mitochondria, and keep the brain in “connection mode” instead of decline. You'll hear why the pharmaceutical industry resists these solutions, how toxins like Paraquat and mold fuel cognitive decline, and what young people can do right now to bulletproof their brains for life. This episode is essential listening if you care about hacking human performance, upgrading metabolism, or extending longevity. You'll walk away with practical strategies you can use today—whether that means optimizing your mitochondria with nootropics, strengthening resilience with smarter not harder recovery, or fueling your brain with Danger Coffee. You'll Learn: • Why Alzheimer's can begin as early as your 20s and what biomarkers to track • The seven major drivers of Alzheimer's and how to reverse them with biohacking strategies • How APOE4 genetics, toxins, and inflammation accelerate brain aging—and what to do about it • The role of mitochondria, ketosis, and fasting in restoring brain optimization and neuroplasticity • Why prevention is exponentially easier than reversal and the top three actions you should start in your 20s • How to avoid “learned helplessness” in medicine and reclaim control over your brain span and longevity Dave Asprey is a four-time New York Times bestselling author, founder of Bulletproof Coffee, and the father of biohacking.

What can Canada's death laws teach us about policy limits? Sarah and Beth examine Canada's medical assistance in dying (MAID) program, where assisted deaths now account for 1 in 20 deaths nationwide - more than Alzheimer's and diabetes combined. They trace how policies that began with terminally ill patients have expanded to include those with treatable conditions and mental health issues alone. When does personal autonomy go too far? Sarah and Beth explore the moral injury experienced by healthcare workers, question whether doctors should make ethical decisions, and examine what happens when individual autonomy becomes society's dominant value. How do you deepen friendships by sharing life stories? In Outside of Politics, Sarah describes a weekend exercise where friends told their complete life stories from birth to present, plus creative alternatives like wedding album tours and conversation games like Hygge.

If you had a stroke and you're currently taking methylene blue, you wouldn't have much damage. If you had a heart attack while you're taking methylene blue, you're very much protected." — Dr. John Lieurance "Our healthcare model, because it's been so biased with the money from Big Pharma, it's gotten out of control. And this does not limit itself to pharmaceuticals. You can get functional medicine doctors that do the same thing with natural solutions, but just treating symptoms and not actually getting down to the root cause." — Dr. John Lieurance "Through methylene blue, we can feed photons into that system and actually get a boost in vitality and energy at a cellular level. It acts like a sponge to pull the photons into the mitochondria." — Dr. John Lieurance Josh's Trusted Products | Up To 40% Off Shop All Products Biohacking⁠ Korrect Life - 15% OFF WITH CODE "JOSH15" MANNA Vitality - Save 20% with code JOSH20 HigherDOSE - 15% off with the code WELLNESSANDWISDOM PLUNGE - $150 off with discount code WELLNESSFORCE SaunaSpace - 10% off with discount code JOSH10 Ultrahuman Ring Air - 10% off with code JOSH Wellness Test Kits Tiny Health Gut Tests - $20 off with discount code JOSH20 VIVOO Health Tests - Save 30% off with code JOSH SiPhox Health Blood Test - Save 15% off with code JOSH Nutrition + Gut Health Organifi - 20% off with discount code WELLNESSFORCE Paleovalley - 15% off with the link only EQUIP Foods - 20% off with the code WELLNESS20 DRY FARM WINES - Get an extra bottle of Pure Natural Wine with your order for just 1¢ Just Thrive - 20% off with the code JOSH Kreatures of Habit - Save 20% with WISDOM20 Supplements MANNA GOLD - $20 off with the code JOSHGOLD Adapt Naturals - 20% off with discount code WELLNESSFORCE MitoZen - 10% off with the code WELLNESSFORCE Activation Products - 20% off with the code JOSH20 BiOptimizers - 10% off with discount code JOSH10 Fatty15 Essential Fatty Acids Supplement - Get 15% off with code JOSH15 Sleep BiOptimizers Sleep Breakthrough - 10% off with JOSH10 Zyppah Anti-Snoring Mouthpiece - 20% off with the code JOSH MitoZen Super SandMan Ultra™ (Melatonin Liposomal)+ | 10% off with WELLNESSFORCE Luminette Light Therapy Glasses - 15% off with JOSH Cured Nutrition CBN Night Oil - 20% off with JOSH Natural Energy MTE - Save 20% with JOSH TruKava - Save 20% with code JOSH20 Drink Update - Save 25% with discount code JOSH25 EONS Mushroom Coffee - 20% off with the discount code JOSH20 EnergyBITS - 20% off with the code WELLNESSFORCE BUBS Naturals - Save 20% with JOSH20 Fitness + Physical Health Detox Dudes Online Courses - Up to $500 off with discount code JOSH Kineon - 10% off with discount code JOSH10 Create Wellness Creatine Gummies - 20% off with discount code JOSH BioPro+ by BioProtein Technology - Save $30 OFF WITH CODE JOSH Drink LMNT - Zero Sugar Hydration: Get your free LMNT Sample Pack, with any purchase Healthy Home SunHome Saunas - Save $200 with JOSH200 JASPR Air Purifier - Save 10% with code WELLNESS Zyppah Anti-Snoring Mouthpiece - 20% off with the code JOSH Holy Hydrogen - $100 off with discount code JOSH SimplyO3 - 10% off with discount code JOSH10 LEELA Quantum Upgrade + Frequency Bundles - Get 15 days free with code JOSH15 TrulyFree Toxic- Free Cleaning Products - Get 40% off + Freebies with code WELLNESSFORCE Mental Health + Stress Release Mendi.io - 20% off with the code JOSH20 NOOTOPIA - 10% off with the discount code JOSH10 CalmiGo - $30 off the device with discount code JOSH30 QUALIA - 15% off with WELLNESSFORCE Personal Care⁠ The Wellness Company's Emergency Health Kits + More - Save 10% with code JOSH Farrow Life - Save 20% with JOSH Timeline Nutrition - 10% off with JOSH ⁠⁠Intelligence of Nature - 15% off Skin Support with the code JOSH15⁠⁠ Young Goose - Save 10% with code JOSH10 Mindfulness + Meditation BREATHE - 33% off with the code PODCAST33 Neuvana - 15% off with the code WELLNESSFORCE Essential Oil Wizardry - 10% off with the code WELLNESSFORCE Four Visions - Save 15% with code JOSH15 Lotuswei - 10% off with JOSH Clothing Rhizal Grounded Barefoot Shoes - Save 10% with code WELLNESS Earth Runners Shoes - 10% off with the code JOSHT10 Free Resources M21 Wellness Guide - Free 3-Week Breathwork Program with Josh Trent Join The Liberated Life Tribe About Dr. John Lieurance Naturopath and Chiropractic Neurologist, Dr. John Lieurance, has been in private practice for over 27 Years.
