The Silent Killer of the Mind: What You Don't Know About Alzheimer's Could Be Hurting You Already What if the path to Alzheimer's doesn't begin in your 70s—but is already unfolding in your 30s, 40s, or even earlier? In this powerful conversation with Dr. Robert Love, we expose one of the most misunderstood, underestimated health threats of our generation—Alzheimer's disease—and what you can do today to not only prevent it, but potentially reverse its early effects. I've had some of the best minds on this show, but Dr. Love stands out. He's not just brilliant—he's a world-class communicator on a mission to bring hope, tools, and clarity to one of the scariest topics out there: losing your mind. Dr. Love pulls back the curtain on the real causes of Alzheimer's—and it's not just genetics. It's inflammation. It's sugar. It's chronic stress. It's poor sleep. He explains how our modern lifestyle is sabotaging our brain health decades before symptoms appear. And here's what hit me hard: your inflammation levels at age 40 are one of the strongest predictors of your Alzheimer's risk at 70. That's not fear—that's a wake-up call. But the best part? We're not powerless. From simple lifestyle shifts to breakthrough supplements like lion's mane and curcumin, Dr. Love shows us the map to protecting the most vital organ we've got—our brain. We also dive into cutting-edge science that isn't just about prevention—it's about reversal. Dr. Love shares promising new treatments and even clinical results from his medical clinic where Alzheimer's symptoms have improved or stabilized through non-drug protocols. He gives us a first-hand account of a patient who went from disoriented and forgetful to alert, clear, and sharp—all within six months. I'm telling you, this isn't science fiction. This is the new frontier of brain health. Beyond the data and science, what really resonated with me was this: so much of what protects the brain is also what builds a better life—quality sleep, exercise, meaningful learning, low stress, good food, and strong relationships. Dr. Love reminds us that joy, curiosity, and purpose aren't just nice-to-haves—they're biological armor for your brain. And if you're young and thinking this episode doesn't apply to you? Think again. The decisions you make today will echo into the quality of your future decades. Key Takeaways: Alzheimer's starts decades before symptoms appear—your 40s matter Inflammation is one of the biggest risk factors for cognitive decline Sleep, gut health, stress, and sugar all have massive impacts on brain aging Supplements like lion's mane, curcumin, and NMN can support neurogenesis Alzheimer's symptoms can be improved or reversed with lifestyle interventions Your lifestyle is not just shaping your body—it's shaping your brain This one is a must-listen. Share it with someone you love. This information can change lives. — Max Out

With the increase in the public's attention to all aspects of brain health, neurologists need to understand their role in raising awareness, advocating for preventive strategies, and promoting brain health for all. To achieve brain health equity, neurologists must integrate culturally sensitive care approaches, develop adapted assessment tools, improve professional and public educational materials, and continually innovate interventions to meet the diverse needs of our communities. In this BONUS episode, Casey Albin, MD, speaks with Daniel José Correa, MD, MSc, FAAN and Rana R. Said, MD, FAAN, coauthors of the article “Bridging the Gap Between Brain Health Guidelines and Real-world Implementation” in the Continuum® June 2025 Disorders of CSF Dynamics issue. Dr. Albin is a Continuum® Audio interviewer, associate editor of media engagement, and an assistant professor of neurology and neurosurgery at Emory University School of Medicine in Atlanta, Georgia. Dr. Correa is the associate dean for community engagement and outreach and an associate professor of neurology at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine Division of Clinical Neurophysiology in the Saul Korey Department of Neurology at the Montefiore Medical Center, New York, New York. Dr. Said is a professor of pediatrics and neurology, the director of education, and an associate clinical chief in the division of pediatric neurology at the University of Texas Southwest Medical Center in Dallas, Texas.

This exclusive Continuum Audio interview is available only to you, our subscribers. We hope you enjoy it. Thank you for listening. Dr Albin: Hi all, this is Dr Casey Albin. Today I'm interviewing Dr Daniel Correa and Dr Rana Said about their article on bridging the gap between brain health guidelines and real-world implementation, which they wrote with Dr Justin Jordan. This article appears in the June 2025 Continuum issue on disorders of CSF dynamics. Thank you both so much for joining us. I'd love to just start by having you guys introduce yourselves to our listeners. Rana, do you mind going first? Dr Said: Yeah, sure. Thanks, Casey. So, my name is Rana Said. I'm a professor of pediatrics and neurology at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas. Most of my practice is pediatric epilepsy. I'm also the associate clinical chief and the director of education for our division. And in my newer role, I am the vice chair of the Brain Health Committee for the American Academy of Neurology. Dr Albin: Absolutely. So just the right person to talk about this. And Daniel, some of our listeners may know you already from the Brain and Life podcast, but please introduce yourself again. Dr Correa: Thank you so much, Casey for including us and then highlighting this article. So yes, as you said, I'm the editor and the cohost for the Brain and Life podcast. I do also work with Rana and all the great members of the Brain Health Initiative and committee within the AAN, but in my day-to-day at my institution, I'm an associate professor of neurology at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in the Montefiore Health System. I do a mix of general neurology and epilepsy and with a portion of my time, I also work as an associate Dean at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine, supporting students and trainees with community engagement and outreach activities. Dr Albin: Excellent. Thank you guys both so much for taking the time to be here. You know, brain health has really become this core mission of the AAN. Many listeners probably know that it's actually even part of the AAN's mission statement, which is to enhance member career fulfillment and promote brain health for all. And I think a lot of us have this kind of, like, vague idea about what brain health is, but I'd love to just start by having a shared mental model. So, Rana, can you tell us what do you mean when you talk about brain health? Dr Said: Yeah, thanks for asking that question. And, you know, even as a group, we really took quite a while to solidify, like, what does that even mean? Really, the concept is that we're shifting from a disease-focused model, which we see whatever disorder comes in our doors, to a preventative approach, recognizing that there's a tremendous interconnectedness between our physical health, our mental health, cognitive and social health, you know, maintaining our optimal brain function. And another very important part of this is that it's across the entire lifespan. So hopefully that sort of solidifies how we are thinking about brain health. Dr Albin: Right. Daniel, anything else to add to that? Dr Correa: One thing I've really liked about this, you know, the evolution of the 2023 definition from the AAN is its highlight on it being a continuous state. We're not only just talking about prevention of injury and a neurologic condition, but then really optimizing our own health and our ability to engage in our communities afterwards, and that there's always an opportunity for improvement of our brain health. Dr Albin: I love that. And I really felt like in this article, you walked us through some tangible pillars that support the development and maintenance of this lifelong process of maintaining and developing brain health. And so, Daniel, I was wondering, you know, we could take probably the entire time just to talk about the five pillars that support brain health. But can you give us a pretty brief overview of what those are that you outlined in this article? Dr Correa: I mean, this was one of the biggest challenges and really bundling all the possibilities and the evidence that's out there and just getting a sense of practical movement forward. So, there are many organizations and groups out there that have formed pillars, whether we're calling them seven or eight, you know, the exact number can vary, but just to have something to stand on and move forward. We've bundled one of them as physical and sleep health. So really encouraging towards levels of activity and not taking it as, oh, that there's a set- you know, there are recommendations out there for amount of activity, but really looking at, can we challenge people to just start growing and moving forward at their current ability? Can we challenge people to look at their sleep health, see if there's an aspect to improve, and then reassess with time? We particularly highlight the importance of mental health, whether it's before a neurologic condition or a brain injury occurs or addressing the mental health comorbidities that may come along with neurologic conditions. Then there's of course the thing that everyone thinks about, I think, with brain health in terms of is cognitive health. And you know, I think that's the first place that really enters either our own minds or as we are observers of our elder individuals in our family. And more and more there has been the highlight on the need for social interconnectedness, community purpose. And this is what we include as a pillar of social health. And then across all types of neurologic potential injuries is really focusing on the area of brain injury. And so, I think the area that we've often been focused as neurologists, but also thinking of both the prevention along with the management of the condition or the injury after it occurs. Dr Albin: Rana, anything else to add to that? That's a fantastic overview. Dr Said: Daniel, thank you for- I mean, you just set it up so beautifully. I think the other thing that maybe would be important for people to understand is that as we're talking through a lot of these, these are individual. These sound like very individual-basis factors. But as part of the full conversation, we also have to understand that there are some factors that are not based on the individual, and then that leads to some of the other initiatives that we'll be talking about at the community and policy levels. So, for example, if an individual is living in an area with high air pollution. Yes, we want them to be healthy and exercise and sleep, but how do we modify those factors? What about lead leaching from our aging pipes or even infectious diseases? So, I think that outside of our pillars, this is sort of the next step is to understand what is also at large in our communities. Dr Albin: That's a really awesome point. I love that the article really does shine through and that there are these individual factors, and then there there's social factors, there's policy factors. I want to start just with that individual because I think so many of our patients probably know, like, stress management, exercise, sleep, all of that stuff is really important. But when I was reading your article, what was not so obvious to me was, what's the role that we as neurologists should play in advocating? And really more importantly, like, how should we do that? And again, it struck me that there are these kind of two issues at play. And one is that what Daniel was saying that, you know, a lot of our patients are coming because they have a problem, right? We are used to operating in this disease-based care, and there's just limited time, competing clinical demands. If they're not coming to talk about prevention, how do we bring that in? And so Rana, maybe I'll start with you just for that question, you know, for the patients who are seeing us with a disease complaint or they're coming for the management of a problem, how are you organizing this at the bedside to kind of factor in a little bit about that preventative brain health? Dr Said: You know, I think the most important thing at the bedside is, one, really identifying the modifiable risk factors. These have been well studied, we understand them. Hypertension, diabetes, smoking, weight management. And we know that these definitely are correlative. So is it our role just to talk about stroke, or should we talk about, how are you managing your blood pressure? Health education, if there was one major cornerstone, is elevating health literacy for everyone and understanding that patients value clear and concise information about brain health, about modifiable risk factors. And the corollary to that, of course, are what are the resources and services? I completely understand---I'm a practicing clinician---the constraints that we have at the bedside, be it in the hospital or in our clinics. And so being the source of information, how are we referring our families and individuals to social workers, community health worker support, and really partnering with them, food banks, injury prevention programs, patient advocacy organizations? I think those are really ways that we can meet the impacts that we're looking at the bedside that can feel very tangible and practical. Dr Albin: That's really excellent advice. And so, I'd like to ask a follow-up question. With your knowledge of this, trying to get more multidisciplinary buy-in from your clinic so that you really have the support to get these services that are so critically important. And how do you do that? Dr Said: Yeah, I think it's, one, being a champion. So, what does a champion mean? It means that somebody has to decide this is really important. And I think we all realize that we're not the only ones in the room who care about this. We're all in this, and we all care about it. But how do we champion it and carry it through? And so that's the first. Second you find your partnerships: your social workers, your case managers, your other colleagues. And then what is the first-level entry thing that you can do? So for example, I'm a pediatric epileptologist. One of the things we know is that in pediatric epilepsy, depression and anxiety are very strong comorbidities. So, before we get to the point where a child is in distress, every single one of our epilepsy patients who walks in the door over the age of twelve has an age-appropriate screener that is given to them in both English and Spanish. And we assess it and we determine stratifying risk. And then we have our social workers on the back end and we decide, is this a child who needs resources? Is this a child who needs to be walked to the emergency room, escorted? And anything in between. And I think that that was a just a very tangible example of, every single person can do this and ask about it. And through the development of dot phrases and clear protocols, it works really well. Dr Albin: I love that, the way that you're just being mindful. At every step of the way, we can help people towards this lifelong brain health. And Daniel, you work with an adult population. So I wonder, what are your tips for bringing this to a different patient population? Dr Correa: Well, I think---adult or child---one thing that we often are aware of with so many of the other things that we're doing in bedside or clinic room counseling, but we don't necessarily think of in this context of brain health, is, remember all the people in the room. So, at the bedside, whether it's in the ICU, discharge counseling, the initial admission, the whole family is often involved and really concerned about the active issue. But you can look for opportunities- we often try to counsel and support families about the importance of their own sleep and rest and highlighting it not just as being there for their family member, but highlighting it to them as a measure of their own improvement of their brain health. So, looking at ways where, one, I try to find, is there something I can do to support and educate the whole family about their brain health? And then- and with an epilepsy, or in many other situations, I try to look for one comorbidity that might be a pillar of brain health to address that maybe I wasn't already thinking. And then I consider, is there an additional thing that they wouldn't naturally connect to their epilepsy or their headaches that I can bring in for them to work on? You know, we can't often give people twelve different things to work on, and they'd just feel like, okay like, you have no realistic understanding of my life. But if we can just highlight on one, and remind them that there can be many more ways to improve their health and to follow up either with us as their neurologist or their future primary care doctors to address those additional needs. Again, I would really highlight the importance of a multidisciplinary approach and looking for opportunities. We've too often, I feel, relied on primary care as being the first line for addressing unmet social health needs. We know that so many people, once they have a neurologic condition or the potential, even, of a neurologic condition, they're concerned about dementia or something, they may view us, as their neurologist, as their most important provider. And if they don't have the resource of time and money to show up at other doctors, we may be the first one they're coming to. And so, tapping into your institution's resources and finding out, are there things that are available to the primary care services that for some reason we're not able to get on the inpatient side or the outpatient side? Referring to social workers and care workers and showing that our patients have an independent need, that they're not somehow getting captured by the primary care doctors. Dr Albin: I really love that. I think that we- just being more invested and just being ready to step into that role is really important. I was noticing in this article, you really call that being a brain health ambassador, being really mindful, and I will direct all of our listeners to Figure 3, which really captures what practitioners can do both at the bedside, within their local community, and even at the professional society level, to really advocate for policies that promote brain wellness. Rana, at the very beginning of this conversation, you noted, you know, this is not just an individual problem. This really is something that is a component of our policy and the structure of our local communities. I really loved in the article, there's a humility that this cannot be just a person-by-person bedside approach, that this is a little bit determined by the social determinants of health. And so, Rana, can you walk us through a little bit of what are the social determinants of health, and why are these so crucially important when we think about brain health for all? Dr Said: Yeah, social determinants of health are a really key factor that it looks at, what are the health factors that are environmental; for example, that are not directly like what your blood pressure is, what, you know, what your BMI is, that definitely impact our health outcomes. So, these include environmental things like where people are born, where they live, where they learn, work, play, worship, and age. It encompasses factors like your socioeconomic status, your education, the neighborhoods where you are living, definitely healthcare access. And then all of this is in a social and community context. We know that the impact of social determinants of health on brain health are profound for the entire lifespan and that- so, for example, if someone is from a disadvantaged background or that leads to chronic stress, they can have limited access to healthcare. They can have greater risk of exposure to, let's say, environmental toxins, and all of that will shape how their brain health is. Violence, for example. And so, as we think about how we're going to target and enhance brain health, we really have to understand that these are vulnerable populations, special high-risk populations, that often have a disproportionate burden of neurologic disorders. And by identifying them and then developing targeted interventions, it promotes health equity. And it really has to be done in looking at culturally- ethnocultural-sensitive healthcare education resources, thinking about culturally sensitive or adaptive assessment tools that work for different populations so that these guidelines that we have, that we've already identified as being so valuable, can be equitably applied, which is one crucial component of reducing brain health risk factors. And lastly, at the neighborhood level, this is where we really rely on our partnerships with community partners who really understand their constituents and they understand how to have the special conversations, how to enhance brain health through resource utilization. And so, this is another plug for policy and resources. Dr Albin: I love that. And thinking about the neighborhood and the policy levels and all the things that we have to do. Daniel, I'd like to ask you, is there anything else you would add? Dr Correa: Yeah, you know, so I really wanted to come back to this thing is that often and unfortunately, in the beginning understanding of social determinants of health, they're thought of as a positive or a negative factor, and often really negative. These are just facts. They're aspects about our community, our society, and some of them may be at the individual level. They're not at fault of any individual or community, or even our society. They're just the realities. And when someone has a factor that may predict a health disparity or an unmet social need---I wanted to come back to that concept and that term---one or two positive factors that are social determinants of health for that individual are unmet social needs. It's a point of promise. It's a potential to be addressed. And seeking ways to connect them with community services, social work, caregivers, these are ways where- that we can remove a barrier to, so that the possibility of the recommendations that we're used to doing, giving recommendations about medications and management, can be fully appreciated for that person. And the other aspect is, like brain health, this is a continuous state. The social determinants of health may be different for the child, the parent, and the elderly family member in the household, and there might be some that are shared across them. And when one of those individuals has a new medical illness or a new condition, a stroke, and now has a mobility limitation, that may change a social determinant of health for that person or for anyone else in the family, the other people now becoming caregivers. We're used to this. And for someone after a stroke or traumatic brain injury, now they have mobility changes. And so, we work on addressing those. But thinking on how those things now become a barrier for engaging with community and accessing things, something as simple as their pharmacy. Dr Albin: I hear a lot of “this is a fluid situation,” but there's hope here because these are places that we can intervene and that we can really champion brain health throughout this fluid situation. Which kind of brings me to what we're going to close out with, which is, I'm going to have you do a little thought exercise, which is that you find a magic lamp and a genie comes out. And we'll call this the brain health genie. The genie says that they are going to grant you one wish for the betterment of brain health. Daniel, I'll start with you. What is the one thing that you think could really move the needle on promoting and maintaining brain health? Dr Correa: I will jump on nutrition and food access. If we could somehow get rid of food insecurity and have access to whole and fresh foods for everyone, and people could go back to looking at opportunities from their ancestral and cultural experiences to cook and make whole-food recipes from their own cultures. Using something like the Mediterranean diet and the mind diet as a framework, but not looking at those as cultural barriers that we somehow all have to eat a certain way. So, I think that would really be the place I would go to first that would improve all of our brain health. Dr Albin: I love that. So, wholesome eating. Rana, how about you? One magic wish. Dr Said: I think traumatic brain injury prevention. I think it's so- it feels so within our reach, and it just always is so heart-hurting when you think that wearing helmets, using seatbelts, practicing safety in sports, gun safety---because we know unfortunately that in pediatric patients, firearm injury is the leading cause of traumatic brain injury. In our older patients, fall reduction. If we could figure out how to really disseminate the need for preventative measures, get everyone really on board, I think this is- the genie wouldn't have to work too hard to make that one come true. Dr Albin: I love that. As a neurointensivist, I definitely feel that TBI prevention. We could talk about this all day long. I really wish we had a longer bit of time, but I really would direct all of our listeners to this fantastic article where you give really practical advice. And so again, today I've been interviewing Drs Daniel Correa and Rana Said about their article on bridging the gap between brain health guidelines and real-world implementation, written with Dr Justin Jordan. This article appears in the most recent issue of Continuum on the disorders of CSF dynamics. Be sure to check out Continuum Audio episodes from this and other issues. And thank you so much for our listeners for joining us today. Dr Monteith: This is Dr Teshamae Monteith, Associate Editor of Continuum Audio. We hope you've enjoyed this subscriber-exclusive interview. Thank you for listening.

A leading scientist has recommended that dementia be treated as an economic crisis as well as a health issue. Over 400,000 Australians live with dementia, and with an ageing population, this is expected to double by 2050. - Higit 400,000 Australian ang may dementia at sa tumatandang populasyon, inaasahan na dumoble ito sa taong 2050 kaya panawagan ng mga tagapagtaguyod ang isang bagong pambansang paraan para sa tugunan ang sakit.

Omega-3 fatty acids have long been lauded for heart health benefits. Yet, emerging research now points to an even more profound impact, directly on our most complex organ: the brain. Today, we delve into the critical, often misunderstood, role of omega-3s in cognitive function, mental well-being, and even the prevention of neurodegenerative conditions like dementia. We are joined by Dr. Bill Harris, a globally recognised authority in omega-3 fatty acid research. Bill is a Professor at the University of South Dakota and has over 300 peer-reviewed publications. His foundational work includes pioneering studies on fish oil in the 1980s and shaping American Heart Association scientific statements. In this episode, Dr. Harris - along with ZOE's Chief Scientist Professor Sarah Berry - illuminate why most individuals may be operating with suboptimal omega-3 levels, and the tangible implications this has for mood regulation, anxiety, and long-term brain resilience. We navigate nuances between omega-3 types like EPA and DHA, debunk common misconceptions surrounding plant-based sources and mercury content in fish, and explore the precise methods for assessing and improving your own "Omega-3 Index."

In this episode, I had the privilege of sitting down with Dr. Titus Chiu, a holistic concussion expert, to explore the intricacies of concussion and post-concussion syndrome. Dr. Chiu shared his personal journey that inspired him to specialize in brain health and develop innovative, natural approaches that go beyond conventional medicine. We discussed what really happens to the brain after a concussion, why every case is unique — like a fingerprint — and why the outdated “one-size-fits-all” approach so often fails. Dr. Chiu highlighted the critical importance of the blood-brain barrier, the autonomic nervous system, and the need to address the physical, chemical, and emotional pillars of brain health for lasting recovery. This conversation reinforced my belief that recovery is always possible with the right diagnosis and a multimodal treatment strategy. If you or someone you know is struggling with lingering brain symptoms, you'll find actionable insights — and real hope — in this episode. Key Takeaways: Concussions can vary greatly and do not always result in loss of consciousness, emphasizing the need for awareness around different symptoms and personalized treatment. A holistic approach involving the physical, chemical, and emotional pillars is crucial in diagnosing and treating post-concussion syndrome effectively. Blood-brain barrier health is essential to prevent ongoing brain inflammation, which can lead to more severe conditions if left untreated. Nutritional interventions, including omega-3 fatty acids and polyphenols, alongside specific supplements, can significantly aid in concussion recovery. The complexity of concussions requires a thoughtful, informed approach using advanced diagnostic tools and interventions for optimal recovery outcomes. More About Dr. Titus Chiu:Dr. Titus Chiu is a two-time #1 bestselling author, award-winning international speaker, and holistic brain expert that specializes in healing concussions, naturally. Dr. Chiu has a passion for empowering health-conscious people with the knowledge, insights, and practical actions needed to heal their brains and reclaim their lives after concussion– through advanced brain testing, state-of-the-art treatment technologies, and his clinically-proven concussion recovery programs. Dr. Chiu is the author of BrainSAVE! and Leaky Brain Fix. He works with patients and private clients from all over the world, both online and in-person at his holistic brain centers in California.   Website PrimexWeightLoss Instagram Facebook Connect with me!

Send us a textThe thought of losing our memories and cognitive abilities strikes deep fear in many of us. In fact, for people over 55, Alzheimer's disease has become the most feared diagnosis of all. But what if simple lifestyle choices could significantly reduce your risk?In this eye-opening conversation with dementia expert Lisa Skinner, we dive into the crucial differences between dementia (a collection of symptoms) and Alzheimer's (a specific brain disease). Lisa shares a powerful personal story about her grandmother that launched her 30-year career in dementia care, revealing how this devastating condition affects not just patients but entire families who essentially "lose their loved ones twice."The episode breaks down the risk factors into those we can't control (age, biological sex, genetics, and ethnicity) and those we can modify through lifestyle changes. Cardiovascular disease tops the list of modifiable risks, followed by diabetes, sleep apnea, and surprisingly, hearing loss. We explore why women face significantly higher risk than men—a complex interplay of hormonal changes, exercise habits, sleep patterns, stress management, and nutrition.Most compelling is the evidence that exercise has double the protective effect of brain games for preventing cognitive decline, while combining physical activity with mental stimulation triples the benefit. We discuss why proper sleep is non-negotiable for brain health, how strength training preserves cognitive function, and why supplementing with creatine monohydrate might be worth considering.With Alzheimer's cases projected to triple in the next 25 years, this conversation couldn't be more timely. The choices you make today directly impact your brain's future—and while nothing provides absolute protection, the science is clear that we have more control than we might think.Take charge of your cognitive future.

Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 7-17-2025: Dr. Dawn interviews Dr. Drew Richard, a first-year resident at Dominican Santa Cruz Family Medicine Residency. Dr. Richard discusses his motivation to bridge socioeconomic health disparities and his experience creating educational cooking episodes featuring cultural dishes from medical students. He explains his philosophy that medicine should help people cultivate compassion and his belief in the fundamental capacity for human goodness. The conversation explores the evolution of medical training and communication skills. Dr. Dawn contrasts today's team-based collaborative approach with the hierarchical, authoritarian medical culture of the past. They discuss how modern medicine emphasizes interprofessional collaboration, with Dr. Richard noting improved learning environments where faculty are more forgiving of mistakes while maintaining high standards for patient safety. A caller asks about functional medicine's approach to intangible factors like intention, purpose, attitude, energy, and alternative therapies like sound healing. Dr. Dawn explains the functional medicine matrix that places mental, emotional, and spiritual aspects at its center, discussing how these factors influence disease response and treatment outcomes. She describes the body's electrical field and energy medicine principles from her acupuncture practice. Dr. Richard addresses the caller's question about sound healing, suggesting that practitioners frame these concepts in familiar terms rather than using unfamiliar terminology. He recommends starting conversations about therapeutic music by asking patients about their favorite songs rather than immediately introducing concepts like sound baths, making these healing modalities more accessible and less intimidating. The discussion shifts to music's neurological benefits, with Dr. Dawn citing research showing that singing and music-making promote brain health and neuroplasticity. Studies demonstrate that piano practice increases gray matter, improves cognitive flexibility, and enhances auditory working memory in older adults. They explore how music engagement, whether through listening or active participation, releases dopamine and provides emotional regulation benefits. Dr. Richard shares his personal musical background as a drummer and discusses the bonding effects of group music-making. Dr. Dawn describes her experiences with choral singing and four-part harmony, explaining how shared musical vibrations create feelings of communion and connection. They explore how music affects the body's vibrations and blood flow, touching on everything from opera to movie soundtracks. The conversation turns to Dr. Richard's surfing experiences as part of his residency cohort's wellness activities. He describes overcoming ocean fears and discovering unexpected joy in the sport, noting how the entire residency class has embraced surfing as both exercise and bonding experience. Dr. Dawn mentions the conductor paradox - how orchestra conductors live longer than expected despite their lifestyle habits, attributing this to the cardiovascular benefits of continuous arm movement. In a concluding segment. Dr. Dawn presents research from the University of Pittsburgh showing how exercise protects against cancer through microbiome effects.

Episode 2669 - BEST OF: Vinnie Tortorich welcomes Dr. Mary Newport back to the show, and they discuss brain health and coconut oil, ketones, and her upcoming book. https://vinnietortorich.com/2025/07/brain-health-coconut-oil-dr-mary-newport-episode-2669 PLEASE SUPPORT OUR SPONSORS YOU CAN WATCH ALL THE PODCAST EPISODES ON YOUTUBE -  BRAIN HEALTH AND COCONUT OIL Vinnie welcomes Dr. Mary Newport back to the show, and they start the show by discussing Mary's husband's early-onset dementia. (1:20) At age 56, her husband was experiencing a rapid decline in brain health. After some challenges, he became eligible for a clinical trial for Alzheimer's treatment. (9:00) She had heard about the benefits of ketones and coconut oil and started experimenting. (12:15) It's amazing the improvements they saw in a short amount of time! Vinnie mentions his battle with leukemia and how staying in ketosis has kept him in remission. (16:40) Mary mentions that people with epilepsy who have been on a ketogenic diet will have recurrence of seizures after having just a piece of cake; consequently, this is called "Birthday Syndrome". (20:40) Vinnie asks Mary her opinion on exogenous ketone esters and salts. (25:00) They discuss further the benefits of coconut oil, and Mary also started using it and feels like her mental endurance has improved. (28:40) Mary mentions that coconut oil got a bad rap because companies that created hydrogenated oils were competing with it and creating a negative campaign against it. (38:30) They also discuss how the dietary guidelines still used today are based on incorrect information from the 1950s. (41:00) Saturated fats are not the problem. They chat about cholesterol, plaque, and inflammation. CLEARLY KETO They turn the conversation to Mary's upcoming book: "". Mary lists some of the topics covered in her book, from the problem of too much sugar, ketones, fasting, your brain on coconut oil, and much more. Vinnie and Mary discuss various medications, how some do (and don't) function, and how some only "keep you perfectly sick". (55:00) Vinnie talks about how he knows of cases where people were on 3 medications for one issue, but that issue could be resolved just by proper eating. Mary talks about how even she, at one time, was unaware of how the current low-fat dietary guidelines were bad; consequently, she has changed her eating habits and has seen many benefits. It is possible to overcome insulin resistance, which can also include virgin coconut oil. (1:04:20) Insulin resistance affects brain functions and other functions in the body. She talks about some things she has learned about brain plaque and how it behaves. (1:17:00) Mary mentions other topics addressed in the book and lets us know an update about her husband. They talk a little more about coconut oil, and how it's difficult to get people to accept that it is as good! Go to for more suggestions and information.

“What we decide to put in our mouth each day, what time we decide to go to sleep, who we choose to engage with, how much movement we get, how we manage our stressors, those choices that we make each day that seem really simple, those have the biggest impact on our brain health as we age." - Dr. Heather Sandison When my son Grant suffered his traumatic brain injury, I learned firsthand how devastating cognitive decline can be for an entire family. That's why I was so excited to sit down with Dr. Heather Sandison, a pioneering naturopathic doctor who's literally rewriting the story around Alzheimer's and dementia. While most memory care centers are one-way doors, Heather runs what she calls a "memory recovery program" where the goal is for people to return home—and they're doing it! Through her groundbreaking work applying Dr. Dale Bredesen's protocols, she's seeing 74% of her patients with cognitive impairment actually improve. Her approach to preventing Alzheimer's in midlife women focuses on hope, action, and evidence-based strategies that work. Whether you're carrying APOE4 genes, worried about your family history, or simply want to protect your brain as you age, this conversation is packed with hope and actionable strategies for preventing Alzheimer's in midlife women. From the power of ketogenic nutrition and sleep optimization to addressing hidden infections and hormonal signaling, Heather breaks down the six pillars of brain health that every woman over 40 needs to understand. This isn't about accepting decline—it's about taking control of your cognitive destiny. The six key components of brain health and how to optimize each one for preventing alzheimer's in midlife women Why APOE genetic testing is crucial for women over 40 and how to act on your results How sleep apnea (even in thin women who don't snore) devastates brain health and simple at-home testing options The specific ketogenic approach that helps patients remember their grandchildren's names within 72 hours Hidden infections in your mouth and body that trigger brain inflammation and cognitive decline Why caregivers have 2-6 times higher risk of developing Alzheimer's and how to protect yourself The surprising connection between hormones, exercise, and building new brain connections after menopause Simple lifestyle interventions that work better than any pharmaceutical for preventing cognitive decline Love the Podcast?
