As Trump surges his Gestapo and threatens to annex new territory, his brain is collapsing. He's sundowning on Truth Social, nodding off in meetings, slurring words, slurping at the saliva pooling in his mouth. His insults and aggressions are as constant and predictable as his arms are, reaching out for handholds. Up until this point, discourse on the mental health of this decrepit fascist leader has used the kid gloves of psychology, psychoanalysis, and psychiatry, in which even the most informed analyses were constrained by the fact that experts were interpreting his inner states. For our part, we've compared his fate to that of charismatic cult leaders at the end of the line—and we'll do more of that today. Now a new posse of clinical commentators on IG and TikTok have made it all much more biological: we are witnessing, they say, the predictable signs of fast-progressing dementia.

On today's Flyover Conservatives Show, we sat down to examine a newly published study exploring how near-infrared light therapy may support brain resilience during repeated head impacts. Researchers followed athletes across a full season and found that those using transcranial photobiomodulation showed more stable brain imaging markers tied to inflammation and structural stress compared to the control group. This conversation explores what the findings could mean not only for brain health, but also for recovery, aging, and how light-based therapies may support the body's natural repair systems.TO WATCH ALL FLYOVER CONTENT: www.theflyoverapp.com Follow and Subscribe on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheFlyoverConservativesShow To Schedule A Time To Talk To Dr. Dr. Kirk Elliott Go To ▶ https://flyovergold.comOr Call 720-605-3900 ► Receive your FREE 52 Date Night Ideas Playbook to make date night more exciting, go to www.prosperousmarriage.comJonathan OttoWEBSITE: www.myredlight.comUse Promo Code: FLYOVERFor 30% off the 30% coupons: promo code Flyover30Jonathan Otto is a filmmaker, journalist, and health advocate dedicated to exploring natural health solutions and challenging mainstream narratives.

Alzheimer's disease isn't always the only health condition a person faces, so how does treating other diseases impact the progression of Alzheimer's? Researchers at the University of Arizona focused on four common health conditions – type two diabetes, hypertension, inflammation and dyslipidemia – which are known to increase the risk of developing Alzheimer's disease, and set out to investigate whether those diagnosed with Alzheimer's who received treatments for these four conditions also saw a delay in cognitive decline. Dr. Barb Bendlin joins the podcast to break down the findings from this research, as well as discuss the impact of personalized prevention strategies and combination therapies. Guest: Barbara Bendlin, PhD, professor, Division of Geriatrics and Gerontology, University of Wisconsin (UW) School of Medicine and Public Health, deputy director, UW Center for Health Disparities Research (CHDR) Show Notes Read the study, “Combination therapy targeting Alzheimer's disease risk factors is associated with a significant delay in Alzheimer's disease–related cognitive decline,” published by Alzheimer's & Dementia: Translational Research & Clinical Interventions on the Alzheimer's Association's website.  Read more about the study in the article “Four Key Pieces Managing Common Health Conditions Slows Alzheimer's Progression,” published on the National Alzheimer's Coordinating Center's website.

Older adults often turn to prescription and over-the-counter sleep aids — but what do we really know about their long-term effects on brain health? A large, long-running UCSF study, published in the Journal of Alzheimer's Disease, examined the association between sleep medication use and risk of dementia in older adults. Researchers found that frequent use of sleep medications was linked to a higher likelihood of developing dementia among white participants, while the same pattern was not seen among Black participants. Dr. Yue Leng, PhD, an epidemiologist at UC San Francisco whose work explores how sleep, circadian rhythms, and napping relate to neurodegeneration and cognitive decline in older adults, was one of the researchers on the study.If you loved listening this Live Talk, visit our website to find more of our Alzheimer's coverage and subscribe to our newsletter: https://www.beingpatient.com/Follow Being Patient: Twitter: https://twitter.com/Being_Patient_Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/beingpatientvoices/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/beingpatientalzheimersLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/being-patientBeing Patient is an editorially independent journalism outlet for news and reporting about brain health, cognitive science, and neurodegenerative diseases.

The honest part of caregiving isn't just the long nights and endless appointments—it's realizing you've become the project manager for a situation nobody trained you for. Family Caregivers take that and turn it into a plan, starting with the meds that don't help or flat-out make things worse. In this episode, you'll learn how to loop back to the exact prescriber with clear reports, and why your pharmacist may be your most valuable teammate for catching dangerous drug interactions.We also clear up a major confusion between Dementia and Alzheimer's. Then we hit the wallet questions with straight talk. Can you get paid as a Family Caregiver? Family drama? Trade wishful thinking for structure. We talk about real solutions for issues with family and village members who may not agree or want to contribute to care.  And for the fear you carry—what if I get this too—we offer a path forward.If this conversation helps, subscribe and share it with someone in your care village.

I'm sharing something deeply personal. January is often filled with talk of fresh starts and motivation — but real life doesn't always follow that script. Over the last few weeks, my family has been living through the realities of dementia, loss, and grief, and I wanted to speak honestly about what that has meant for my health, my mindset, and my relationship with food. This episode isn't about perfection. It's about compassion, steadiness, and choosing not to abandon yourself when life feels overwhelming. In this episode, I talk about: Living through dementia and the loss of my dad The emotional weight of care, advocacy, and grief Why binge eating didn't return — even during intense stress Letting go of shame around weight gain Gentle, realistic intentions instead of pressure How creativity  supports me right now Why health still matters — even (and especially) in grief If you've experienced dementia, loss, or a season where everything feels heavier than usual, I hope this episode helps you feel less alone. This podcast is free of editing because in life sometimes we have to take the rough with the smooth and not be afraid to show our messy parts.  Get the first 3 modules of “Ease Your Mind” mini-course now for FREE https://www.claireoldhamwest.com/Ease-your-mind

I'm sharing my family's experience with dementia, specifically, my mother's journey and everything it changed for our family along the way.Dementia is one of the most cruel and isolating diseases I've ever encountered. It doesn't just affect the person diagnosed, it reshapes relationships, creates conflict, forces impossible decisions, and quietly wears down the people trying to help. And unlike many other illnesses, almost no one talks about it while they're going through it.So this week, I'll walk through our story from the early signs we missed, to diagnosis, caregiving at home, safety concerns, memory care, and ultimately losing my mother. I talk honestly about what we did right, what we did wrong, and what I wish we had done differently.This conversation isn't medical advice, it's lived experience. My hope is that by sharing our story, someone listening won't feel so alone, won't have to reinvent the wheel, and might be better prepared for the road ahead.If you're dealing with dementia in your family, or you suspect you might be someday, this episode is for you.

This episode is a continuation of my two-part interview with Professor of Neurology and author Dr. James Noble. We continue discussing his book, "Navigating Life with Dementia," how dementia is diagnosed, what can be done about it, and much more.

Minnesota not so nice, Take me to Church, DEI wins!, You're on the list, This week in Heated Rivalry, Starfleet Academy so woke, Porn Con 2026 and, as always, more tangents than you can count.

He agreed to do this interview. Then he forgot. Then he agreed again. Then he forgot again. My dad's short-term memory is gone, but the stories from his past? Still crystal clear. Chemistry explosions, crocodiles in the family pool, and why he listed Nietzsche, Jesus Christ, and John Lennon when the military came calling.

It's a controversial topic, fasting, especially for women. Dr. Mindy Pelz was teaching women to fast primarily because they wanted to lose weight, but what she was witnessing was women saying things like, "I lost weight, but my hair's falling out. I don't have a period anymore. I sat down with Dr. Mindy Pelz, New York Times bestselling author of Age Like a Girl, hormone expert, and the voice redefining fasting for women - because doing it wrong can wreck your health. We explore why fasting affects women differently, how ketones can restore brain function during menopause, and why understanding your hormonal cycle is critical for metabolic health, cognitive performance, and longevity.

What if the real question isn't just how to live longer, but why so many people are living longer and healthier lives on paper, yet feel depleted, inflamed, disconnected, or cognitively foggy in daily life?In this solo episode, Dr. Taz reframes what longevity really means and why healthy aging has far less to do with chasing more years and far more to do with protecting cellular health, vitality, and resilience across decades. She explains why humans are living longer than ever before, yet not necessarily living better, and how focusing only on disease management or biohacking trends misses the real drivers of aging.You'll learn why longevity is not defined by a number, but by biological age, health span, and cellular aging, and how inflammation, metabolic dysfunction, gut imbalance, nervous system stress, emotional disconnection, and loss of community quietly accelerate aging long before symptoms become diagnoses.This episode reframes longevity as a full body system, not a supplement stack or a protocol. One that integrates physical health, brain function, emotional regulation, spirituality, and community. When these systems fall out of sync, aging speeds up. When they are supported together, living longer becomes living with clarity, strength, and purpose.Dr. Taz shares: • What longevity actually means and why lifespan and health span are not the same • Why humans are living longer but not necessarily healthier • How cellular aging, inflammation, and metabolic stress drive chronic disease • Why diet quality, gut health, liver function, movement, sleep, and nervous system balance matter more than biohacking • How cognitive reserve, dopamine regulation, and emotional health protect the aging brain • Why community and spirituality are overlooked but essential pillars of healthy aging • Where peptides, hormones, and modern longevity tools fit and where they don't • How to build a longevity plan that is realistic, accessible, and sustainableWhether you're thinking about how to live longer, worried about aging faster than you should, or simply want to protect your health span as you move through midlife and beyond, this episode offers a grounded, integrative roadmap.Longevity is not about optimizing harder. It's about supporting the systems that keep you well, year after year.Stay Connected:Connect further to Hol+ at https://holplus.co/- Don't forget to like, subscribe, and hit the notification bell to stay updated on future episodes of hol+.Follow Dr. Taz on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drtazmd/https://www.instagram.com/liveholplus/Subscribe to the audio podcast: https://holplus.transistor.fm/subscribeSubscribe to the video podcast: https://www.youtube.com/@DrTazMD/podcastsGet your copy of The Hormone Shift: Balance Your Body and Thrive Through Midlife and MenopauseHost & Production TeamHost: Dr. Taz; Produced by ClipGrowth.com (Producer: Pat Gostek)Chapters00:00 Longevity is not about more years00:50 Are humans really living longer01:49 The global aging reality03:31 Why aging became something to fear05:17 Aging on a spectrum, not a number06:07 The hidden disease burden of aging08:31 Cellular aging explained09:45 Why biohacking misses the foundation11:10 The five-body approach to longevity13:10 Community, emotion, and aging14:05 Diet, inflammation, and cellular health16:19 Medications, gut health, and aging16:49 Fasting, calories, and longevity18:52 What eating for longevity actually means19:39 Movement and aging well21:35 Sleep, repair, and brain health22:50 Dementia, cognitive reserve, and prevention24:20 Dopamine, emotion, and brain aging26:49 Spirituality, community, and vitality30:05 Peptides, hormones, and future medicine31:58 A new vision for positive aging32:48 Longevity is built day by day (00:00) - Longevity is not about more years (00:50) - Are humans really living longer (01:49) - The global aging reality (03:31) - Why aging became something to fear (05:17) - Aging on a spectrum, not a number (06:07) - The hidden disease burden of aging (08:31) - Cellular aging explained (09:45) - Why biohacking misses the foundation (11:10) - The five-body approach to longevity (13:10) - Community, emotion, and aging (14:05) - Diet, inflammation, and cellular health (16:19) - Medications, gut health, and aging (16:49) - Fasting, calories, and longevity (18:52) - What eating for longevity actually means (19:39) - Movement and aging well (21:35) - Sleep, repair, and brain health (22:50) - Dementia, cognitive reserve, and prevention (24:20) - Dopamine, emotion, and brain aging (26:49) - Spirituality, community, and vitality (30:05) - Peptides, hormones, and future medicine (31:58) - A new vision for positive aging (32:48) - Longevity is built day by day

What's it like to be the caregiver for your parents while raising a young family of your own, and your wife is pregnant? Not easy!  Healthcare journalist Paul Wynn writes about caregiving issues for more than 70 national publications. He also knows what it's like to be a caregiver, sandwiched between two generations.  That personal story is the subject of "Surviving the Sandwich Generation Years: How to Balance Caring for Parents While Raising Kids", one of twenty-two stories in the award-winning anthology, The Caregiver's Advocate: A Complete Guide to Support and Resources, Vol 2, edited by Debbie DeMoss Compton.   In the story, Paul describes life as a boy, watching his mother take care of his grandmother. He noticed his mother's patience and tenderness and how much his grandmother seemed to appreciate his mother's company. Those simple observations would serve him well as an adult.  Here's an excerpt from Paul Wynn's story. It takes place over a ten-day period. At the time, Paul is married, the father of two young children. He and his wife live in New York. His father has died. His mother lives in Pennsylvania. She has dementia. So does his uncle. "...I rented a U-Haul truck and moved my uncle's personal belongings from his home to a Catholic-run assisted living facility where he moved into a studio apartment. The next weekend, Julia and I welcomed our third child."  Every story in the anthology offers a helpful resource or caregiving tip. You can find the book on amazon.  You can reach Paul Wynn at his website.

BrainStorm wants to hear from you! Send us a text.This episode of BrainStorm, by UsAgainstAlzheimer's, features host Meryl Comer interviewing Leah Fisher, a psychotherapist and author who took a bold year-long solo travel sabbatical at age 60 to explore different cultures while maintaining her marriage. The conversation takes a poignant turn as Fisher reveals that after the events in her book, she received an MCI (Mild Cognitive Impairment) diagnosis with elevated Alzheimer's risk. She candidly shares her journey of recognizing early symptoms like misplacing car keys and developing aphasia, the validation that came with diagnosis, and her current experience living with uncertainty about disease progression. Fisher offers insights on how couples cope with health diagnoses, the importance of curiosity over avoidance, and her desire to be treated with patience, kindness, and continued love as she faces an uncertain future. This conversation is essential listening for family members, caregivers, and anyone navigating aging and brain health. Produced by Susan QuirkSupport the show

Should dementia really be written into wedding vows—or is that the wrong question altogether? In this thought-provoking conversation, Teepa Snow and Greg explore what care partnering truly means, and why it doesn't always mean providing hands-on care. They also explore the ways that couples can rethink roles, strengths, and shared commitment as life—and brain change—reshapes the relationship. Care partnering isn't just about tasks — it's about relationships, roles, and shared humanity. A Family's Journey Through Dementia — A Play brings these realities to life through storytelling, humor, and honest moments that reflect how couples and families adapt together over time. This DVD invites us to rethink partnership, recognize strengths beyond hands-on care, and explore what commitment can look like as life and brain change evolve.

In this episode, retired teachers Lisa and Sue-who somehow survived 35+ years in classrooms without permanently losing their minds-talk about aging, memory lapses, and why walking into a room now feels like a pop quiz you didn't study for. They swap stories about forgotten names, family conversations that move faster than their recall, and the comic relief that comes with realizing you're not alone in this stage of life. Along the way, they discuss genetic testing, memory fears, and why grace (for ourselves and others) might be the most important lesson we ever learn.

In this episode of On Brand, Donny discusses the current state of various brands shaping the zeitgeist, focusing on political and social issues. He begins with a critical analysis of ICE, highlighting statistics that reveal a significant number of those detained are not violent criminals, which he argues is contrary to American values. The conversation shifts to the protests in Iran, where Donny expresses frustration over the lack of attention from the public and celebrities, contrasting it with previous protests related to other global issues. He also touches on the political landscape, noting a growing number of Americans identifying as independents, and discusses various political figures and their actions, including Senators Mark Kelly and Elissa Slotkin, who are facing scrutiny for their stances on military orders.
