Dr. Thomas Wisniewski, Director of NYU Langone's Alzheimer's Disease Research Center, shares insights from a recent study that projects new dementia cases in the US will double by 2060. New diagnostic tools have made it easier to identify early signs of Alzheimer's, and disease-modifying therapies are being approved, which can be effective if patients are treated in the earliest stages of the disease. AI is seen as a tool to help identify at-risk patients and routinely screen patients to manage the growing need for access to dementia care.  Thomas explains, "This was a study that was led by the NY Optimal Institute, which is directed by Dr. Joe Resh, who's really a leader in this area and many public health issues. He did a very thorough analysis along with his team that the annual number of incident dementia cases in the United States is projected to increase from current estimates of 500,000 to around 1 million in 2060. So basically doubling in white adults. Furthermore, in African Americans, this incidence of dementia rate is expected to triple, with the largest absolute increases in dementia cases going to be in the oldest old population." "There was perhaps a lack of awareness of the prevalence of dementia in past decades. But now the importance of making an accurate diagnosis and recognition of dementia is becoming much more prominent in the medical literature and in the medical profession. And that message, I think, is permeating to the lay public as well. So there hasn't been a change in the definition so much, but there is an increase in knowledge in the medical profession about the importance of making this diagnosis, and people living alone." "It's really been a dramatic change. So, apart from being a cognitive neurologist, I'm also a board-certified neuropathologist, and it used to be that making the definitive diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease required a chunk of brain. I'm delighted I don't need those chunks of brain anymore to make a diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease. There are now very clear clinical criteria and biomarker definitions for making a very accurate diagnosis of Alzheimer's disease." #NYULangoneAlzheimers #AlzheimersDisease #DiagnosingAlzheimers #AlzheimersResearch #MedAI med.nyu/centers-programs/alzheimers-disease-research/ Download the transcript here

On this episode Fred goes solo to discuss Parkinson's Disease, the Michael J Fox Foundation, his father's story of living with Lewy Body dementia. his participation in the MJFF ground breaking Parkinson's Progression Markers initiative, their discovery of a biomarker and how you can help. *On this episode Fred used the term Lewy Body Dementia, this term describes both Dementia with Lewy Bodies and Parkinson's Disease with Dementia. He used this term incorrectly in stating that in Lewy Body Dementia cognitive decline begins within one year of diagnosis. It is Dementia with Lewy Bodies in which the cognitive decline begins within one year of diagnosis and Parkinson's Disease Dementia in which the cognitive decline appears later.

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this Friday Headline Brief of The Wright Report, Bryan covers the U.S. government shutdown's impact on national security, Democrats' energy messaging strategy, Ford's massive electric truck losses, China's latest espionage scandal, and new medical research linking heart and brain health. U.S. Troops Told to Visit German Food Banks: A U.S. Army base in Bavaria posted a list of local soup kitchens for service members and families struggling during the shutdown — a move that shocked German media and sparked Pentagon embarrassment. Bryan warns foreign spy agencies could exploit unpaid American personnel for recruitment, saying, "That's how the CIA would target desperate officers abroad — and it's happening to us now." Democrats' Winning Playbook: Democrats' recent election victories were fueled by economic messaging, especially on rising energy costs. Bryan explains how candidates tied AI data centers and electric vehicles to higher utility bills — a strategy Republicans must counter before 2026. Ford's Electric F-150 Collapse: The automaker faces $13 billion in losses after poor demand for its Lightning pickup. Bryan notes Toyota's hybrid-first strategy is proving right, calling the EV rush "a cultish demand that ignored market reality." China's Espionage and Agricultural Games: Three Chinese nationals in Michigan were arrested for smuggling genetically modified worms, while Beijing signed $5 billion in new U.S. grain deals. Bryan warns that "China is both robbing our labs and buying our fields." Trump Weighs Action in Nigeria and Venezuela: The President is considering U.S. military intervention in Nigeria to protect Christians from Islamist attacks while reviewing regime-change options in Venezuela. Bryan asks listeners to consider: "How many American lives would we trade to save others abroad?" Dementia and Heart Disease Discoveries: British scientists found that small increases in heart enzyme levels may predict dementia risk years before symptoms. Meanwhile, South Korean researchers discovered gut bacteria linked to coronary artery disease, reinforcing the connection between diet, heart health, and brain function.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32     Keywords: U.S. Army Bavaria food banks shutdown, Pentagon security risk spy recruitment, Democrats energy utility bill messaging, Ford F-150 Lightning EV losses, Toyota hybrid success, Chinese bioresearch smuggling Michigan, Trump Nigeria Christians military intervention, Venezuela Maduro regime change debate, dementia heart enzyme biomarker, gut bacteria coronary artery disease

For decades, neurologists and pharmaceutical firms have been focused on amyloid plaque building up in the brains as the cause of Alzheimer disease. Drug companies have developed compounds to remove that plaque, and they have been successful. There are medicines, notably lecanemab and donanemab, that reduce the amount of amyloid plaque visible on a scan. […]

Fr. Francisco Nahoe, OFM Conv., has served the Church and the Franciscan Order in Catholic education, campus ministry, parochial ministry, and catechesis. He is a chaplain at Thomas Aquinas College in Santa Paula, California, and focuses his scholarly efforts on Renaissance rhetoric and Polynesian ethnohistory. In Today's Show: What happens to those in purgatory when it closes? If 1/3 of all angels fell to darkness, what happened to those who had them as guardian angels? What is the difference between an angel and an archangel? Can priests ever shorten the Roman Canon? What does St. Paul mean when he says "Pray without ceasing"? Also, did he murder any Christians before his conversion? Can someone attend a party where sinful activities are taking place without partaking?  What is the process of excommunication like? Does God judge those with dementia or Alzheimer's differently? Are those who are not Catholic allowed to pray the rosary?

Hey Heal Squad! Today we're joined by Bruce Willis' wife, Emma Heming-Willis and Helen Christoni to dive deep into the realities of the caregiving experience. The everyday challenges that the Willis family has been experiencing since Bruce Willis was diagnosed with Frontotemporal dementia (FTD). The two have both cared for loved ones through dementia and FTD, and are now on a mission to support the caregivers who often feel invisible.  PLUS, we break down the difference between dementia and Alzheimer's, the emotional roller coaster caregivers are never prepared for, and the hard decisions families face when care needs evolve. Whether you're a caregiver, love someone who needs support, or want to protect your brain health now, you don't want to miss this one!  HEALERS & HEAL-LINERS:  Caregivers can't pour from an empty cup: When you constantly prioritize everyone else's needs over your own, your body eventually keeps the score. Prioritizing your sleep, nutrition, movement, and connection isn't selfish. Connection is medicine: Isolation is one of the fastest ways a caregiver's mental and physical health can decline. Staying plugged into community, friends, and emotional support helps you regulate stress and remember you're not carrying this alone. Honesty with kids builds safety: When a parent declines, hiding the truth creates confusion, fear, and internalized blame. Speaking gently, directly, and age-appropriately helps children process what's happening and gives them the emotional tools to stay resilient through change. -- HEAL SQUAD SOCIALS IG: https://www.instagram.com/healsquad/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@healsquadxmaria HEAL SQUAD RESOURCES: Heal Squad Website:https://www.healsquad.com/ Heal Squad x Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/HealSquad/membership Maria Menounos Website: https://www.mariamenounos.com My Curated Macy's Page: Shop My Macy's Storefront EMR-Tek Red Light: https://emr-tek.com/discount/Maria30 for 30% off Airbnb: https://www.airbnb.com/  Thrive Causemetics: https://thrivecausemetics.com/healsquad Get 20% OFF with this link!  Briotech: https://shopbriotech.com/ Use Code: HEALSQUAD for 20% off  Join In-Person Heal Retreat Waitlist! https://mariamenounos.myflodesk.com/heal-retreat-waitlist GUEST RESOURCES: Instagrams: https://www.instagram.com/emmahemingwillis/?hl=en  https://www.instagram.com/helenchristoni/?hl=en  https://www.instagram.com/maketimewellness/?hl=en  Website: https://maketimewellness.com/  Book: https://emmahemingwillis.com/the-unexpected-journey/  ABOUT MARIA MENOUNOS: Emmy Award-winning journalist, TV personality, actress, 2x NYT best-selling author, former pro-wrestler and brain tumor survivor, Maria Menounos' passion is to see others heal and to get better in all areas of life.

Host: Darryl S. Chutka, M.D. Guest: Ronald C. Petersen, M.D., Ph.D. We all experience cognitive changes as we age. If you doubt this, try learning to play the piano with a group of 7-and 8-year-olds and see who sounds best at the recital. We tend to have difficulty with new learning and can struggle with short term memory. When do these cognitive changes become pathologic? Dementia results in a gradual decline in cognitive abilities, memory and behavior, severe enough to interfere with daily life. Between the cognitive changes that occur with aging and those with dementia, there is another medical entity, mild cognitive impairment. How does it differ from the normal cognitive changes of aging? How does it differ from dementia? And is it important for us to recognize it? These are some of the questions I'll be asking my guest for today's podcast, Ronald C. Petersen, M.D., Ph.D., a neurologist and internationally recognized expert in the field of dementia as we discuss “Mild Cognitive Impairment”.  Connect with us and learn more here: https://ce.mayo.edu/online-education/content/mayo-clinic-podcasts 

Your bones, brain, and muscles are having the same conversation—and nutrition is the translator. Duke orthopedic surgeon Dr. Jocelyn Wittstein breaks down how midlife hormone shifts accelerate bone loss, cartilage wear, and muscle decline, and why training + food choices can improve all three at once. We cover earlier DEXA timing, the bone–brain crosstalk (osteocalcin, agility, balance), and a practical plan: progressive strength, safe impact/jump options (step drops, heel drops, rebounders), grip and toe work for fall prevention, and weighted vests/rucking basics. On the nutrition side, we get specific: prioritize protein, aim for food-first calcium, and use targeted support where appropriate—vitamin D, omega-3s, magnesium glycinate, collagen, and turmeric—to lower inflammation, protect joints, and support cognition. Expect clear modifications for cranky knees/shoulders, plus why consistent movement is linked to reduced dementia risk. This episode is your integrated blueprint to build bone, protect your brain, and keep muscle on your frame—so you stay strong, steady, and independent for decades. Actionable, hopeful, and BS-free—use this episode to build stronger bones, happier joints, and real confidence for the next 20 years.Follow Dr. Jocelyn Wittstein at https://www.instagram.com/jocelyn_wittstein_md/Her book, The Complete Bone and Joint Health Plan, is available at booksellers._________________________________________1:1 health and nutrition coaching or Faster Way - Reach me anytime at mailto:mfolanfasterway@gmail.com If you're doing “all the right things” and still feel stuck, it may be time to look deeper.

You may have heard the alarming headline about a recent study that showed the typical brain had about a teaspoon of microplastics inside of it. And that amount appears to be increasing each year. In equally alarming fashion, that same study also revealed that those with dementia had over 5 times the amount of plastic in their brains as those without. Needless to say, it's an issue worth paying attention to. So, in this episode, we break down what is known about microplastics and their impact on brain health, and we discuss the specific measures we're both taking to reduce our own exposure to microplastics and enhance their clearance. Because brain plasticity is a great thing, but a plastic brain is not! ----- To submit a question for us to answer on the podcast, go to brainjo.academy/question.

In this deeply insightful conversation, host Greg Voisen sits down with Lisa Skinner, behavioral specialist and author of Truth, Lies & Alzheimer's: Its Secret Faces, to explore the emotional and practical realities of caring for loved ones with dementia.

Most people assume that if a drug sits on the shelf at Costco or Walgreens, it must be pretty safe. But what if some of the most common over-the-counter (OTC) medications are among the riskiest drugs in America? On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared exposes the hidden dangers behind everyday pain relievers, sleep aids, and heartburn drugs—medicines that cause thousands of deaths every year when misused or taken long-term. You'll learn how a drug becomes “OTC,” what happens when pharmaceutical companies push for that switch, and why the FDA's approval process might not tell the whole story. Jared dives into the startling realities of PPIs like Prilosec, NSAIDs like ibuprofen, and acetaminophen (Tylenol)—uncovering their risks to the liver, kidneys, bones, and brain. He also discusses how marketing convinces consumers these drugs are harmless. Finally, Jared offers a resource for safe, natural alternatives for reflux, pain, inflammation, sleep, and immune support—options that nourish the body instead of depleting it. This episode will change the way you look at “harmless” OTC drugs and help you take real control of your health.Just Ingredients Lemon Swish Protein Powder Vitality Radio POW!

PM2.5 particles increase dementia risk by 8% for every 5 micrograms per cubic meter increase. These ultrafine particles travel directly to the brain through nasal pathways Long-term exposure to fine particulate matter doubles brain aneurysm rupture risk, with damage accumulating over three to six months rather than causing immediate effects Air pollutants trigger chronic brain inflammation by activating microglia cells, disrupting the blood-brain barrier and promoting harmful amyloid plaque buildup over time Vehicle exhaust fumes such as nitrogen dioxide and black carbon from soot show stronger associations with vascular dementia compared to Alzheimer's disease in population studies Using indoor air purifiers with high efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters, limiting outdoor exposure during high pollution periods, and eliminating household chemical sources help improve indoor air quality to protect brain health

All Home Care Matters and our host, Lance A. Slatton were honored to welcome Darlene Fuchs as guest to the show.   About Darlene Fuchs: Darlene Fuchs's writing is shaped by grief and the kind of love that doesn't let go. Her memoir, Get In The Boat, began as a vow to her father and became a raw, clear-eyed account of staying when everything else falls away. She gives voice to the ache behind closed doors—and to the quiet kind of love that keeps showing up, even when no one sees it.   About "Get In The Boat":   Richard didn't just watch his wife disappear—he lived it. Dementia stripped Gail down memory by memory, until she became a ghost inside the body he still kissed goodnight. He stayed. Through the blank stares, the violent confusion, the heartbreak on repeat. Then came the gut punch no one sees coming: their great-grandson.   A brain tumor. Terminal.    Another slow-motion goodbye. And just as the grief settled, COVID slammed the door shut. No visitors. No help. Just Richard—grief rotting in one room, and a slow death unraveling in the other.   Get In The Boat is not a soft-focus memoir. It's raw. It's real. It's what love looks like when memory is gone, hope is thin, and staying feels like breaking.   Because sometimes love looks like hell. And you walk through it anyway.
