In this episode, Brian Haney joins as co-host for a Q&A on my latest recommendations for healing resources that I've come across. Items discussed include a hodgepodge of books, podcasts, recipes, health-promoting products, and interesting new research results. We chat about centenarians, vocabulary, ‘90's nostalgia, and mocktails, among other things. There's a lot of laughing going on in this mostly light-hearted episode, especially while discussing my recent baking fail!Links to resources mentioned in the episode:- The Well Lived Life: A 102-Year-Old Doctor's Six Secrets to Health & Happiness at Every Age https://gladysmcgarey.com/- Buy Yourself the F***ing Lilies https://www.taraschuster.com/- The Rich Roll Podcast https://www.richroll.com/all-episodes/- This American Life https://www.thisamericanlife.org/- Pod Meets World https://www.iheart.com/podcast/1119-pod-meets-world-98589488/- Team Sherzai's Brain Building Totally Possible Burgers https://www.theneuroplan.com/blog/brain-healthy-recipe-brain-building-totally-possible-burgers/- Danielle Walker's Chocolate Strawberry Frozen Yogurt Bites https://www.instagram.com/daniellewalker/reel/C3QxHnayYj4/- Mocktail Club Mocktails https://www.mocktailclub.com/- Washington Post Article https://www.washingtonpost.com/wellness/2024/02/29/ultraprocessed-foods-health-risk/Website: www.kellybhaney.com Instagram: @kellybhaney Facebook: Kelly B Haney, Certified Nutrition Coach

It's time to grapple with the human rights issues ensuing in Afghanistan.To guide us in this important conversation are podcast alums Drs. Ayesha & Dean Sherzai.For those new to the show, ‘Roll On' is typically our opportunity to shift focus from my traditional fare of evergreen conversations to instead hone in on matters of contemporaneous, time-sensitive interest.Today we do just that, but with a twist, spending the entire episode grappling with the very grave plight faced by the 18 million women in Afghanistan in the wake of the United States departure. Breaking down the grip of Taliban rule, this is an exploration and round table discussion led by Team Sherzai.Experts on brain health, Alzheimer's, and neurodegenerative diseases, Drs. Sherzai have twice graced this show for deep dives on maintaining and optimizing cognitive function. But what most don't know is that Dean & Ayesha have considerable experience with Afghanistan.In 2003 Dean was appointed the Deputy Minister of Health by President Karzai, creating the most successful post-conflict healthcare system with women's empowerment at its core. Ayesha founded the Social Welfare Society for Afghan Refugees in medical school, volunteered with Doctors Without Borders' in Afghanistan during her medical training, and co-founded the Afghan Health Initiative in order to empower the Afghan diaspora with their own health.My intention for this conversation is less political—we aren't here to necessarily debate the political advisability of the U.S. withdrawal as much as the incomprehensibly botched manner in which we withdrew—and the downstream human rights implications of Afghan women in particular.Other specific topics discussed include:The history of women's rights in Afghanistan;using healthcare as a catalyst for women's empowerment;a breakdown of the imperative of the Taliban and how it functions;the role that fear plays in female oppression;what we can be done now to aid Afghan women; andhow to support celebrated female artists, scientists, politicians & leaders in Afghanistan.To read more and listen click here.

Today on Live Life in Motion, I talk with Dr. Dean & Ayesha Sherzai. We dive deep into brain health. More specifically, how you can maintain and optimize your cognitive functionality and can prevent neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's. Affectionately known as Team Sherzai, Ayesha & Dean are the highly credentialed co-directors of the Brain Health and Alzheimer's Prevention Program at Loma Linda University Medical Center, where they study all things brain health, with a particular focus on lifestyle interventions to prevent cognitive decline and neurodegeneration. Because Alzheimer's currently afflicts over 40 million people worldwide, I'm willing to bet most of you are directly or indirectly impacted by this affliction. The bad news is that there is currently no cure for Alzheimer's. And incidence is predicted to triple by 2050. What most don't realize, however, is that 90% of Alzheimer's cases can be prevented. In fact, through simple diet and lifestyle changes, the Sherzai's have experienced remarkable success in both preventing and significantly reversing the symptoms of Alzheimer's, dementia and cognitive decline in many of their patients, adding vibrant years to their lives.

Dementia is the defining disease of our time. In the UK it’s the leading cause of death, almost a million people suffer with it and 1 in every 14 of the population aged over 65. And it’s growing.The most common type is Alzheimers and the treatment? Well there are none. After decades of research and billions of dollars spent, we have a few drugs that mildly improve symptoms but nothing close to a cure. And so when I came across lifestyle measures including diet, exercise and community based interventions that could reduce the risk of getting dementia by 70, 80 or even 90% I had to get Dr. Dean and Dr. Ayesha Sherzai on the pod to talk about their researchThey are a unique husband and wife team on the cutting edge of brain science, are dedicated to educating people on the simple steps to long-term health and wellness through their work as Directors of the Alzheimer’s Prevention Program at Loma Linda University Medical Center, with patients, as well as through online writing, videos, and books at teamsherzai.comDr. Dean Sherzai is a behavioral neurologist & neuroscientist whose entire life has been dedicated to behavioral change models at the community and population level. Dr. Ayesha Sherzai finished two residencies at Loma Linda University; preventive medicine and neurology. She also holds a master’s in advanced sciences from UCSD and completed a fellowship in vascular neurology from Columbia University. They are also authors of the book, The 30 Day Alzheimer’s Solution.We talk about:How they became interested in brain health and plant based eatingThe prevalence of dementia in the US and UKThe brain as a huge energy and oxygen consuming organTheir community based research in Loma Linda involving over 3000Creating habit loops What you will learn:Why plant forward eating is critical to preventing dementiaSpecific foods that Team Sherzai call out as helpful for the brainThe issues around nutritional science and why this information is taking so long to trickle into medical practiceThe main cells involved in brain health - neurons and glial cellsHow diet, lifestyle and other factors are becoming of top importance amongst the traditional medical community and why prevention is the cureOnly 3% of the genes known to play a role in dementia risk are deterministicHow better brain health supports your immune systemWhy curcumin might actually be something to supplement withOmega 3 fatty acids and whether you can achieve this through dietWhy inflammation effects memoryHow creativity has a bidirectional effect on the brain - this is not just crosswords!Why you do not need to eat a ton of fat to support your brainA lifestyle that supports brain health - exercise, unwinding, stress reduction and communityWhether we should be drinking Alcohol Why we’re on the fence about fishCheck out The Doctor's Kitchen website for full show notes on this and all other episodes See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
The food you eat may reduce your chances of being diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease even if it runs in your family. Leading Alzheimer’s researchers Drs. Dean and Ayesha Sherzai join “The Weight Loss Champion” Chuck Carroll to share the scientific evidence that shows how diet plays a large role in cognitive ability as we age. Discover the best foods you should be eating and what you should be leaving off your plate for optimal brain health. Plus, you will learn how sleep and other lifestyle changes can also reduce Alzheimer’s risk. Plus, Team Sherzai, authors of The 30-Day Alzheimer’s Solution, offers new hope for fighting the disease when they answer viewer questions as Chuck opens The Doctor’s Mailbag. What percentage of Alzheimer’s cases are due exclusively to genetics? Is coconut oil good for the brain? Is diet, exercise, or sleep the most important for brain health? Is chocolate a good “brain food”? Are you doomed if you don’t start eating a plant-based diet until 50 years old? And many more!

Alzheimer’s isn’t a genetic inevitability. A diagnosis need not come with a death sentence. In fact, many things can be done to prevent & ameliorate cognitive decline. So let’s talk about it.Today we dive deep into brain health. More specifically, how you can maintain and optimize your cognitive functionality and take an insurance policy out against succumbing to neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer’s.Our guides for this exploration are husband and wife neurology duo Drs. Dean and Ayesha Sherzai, returning for a second turn on the podcast (if you missed it, RRP #330 is a must-listen).Affectionately known as Team Sherzai, Ayesha & Dean are the highly credentialed co-directors of the Brain Health and Alzheimer’s Prevention Program at Loma Linda University Medical Center, where they study all things brain health, with a particular focus on lifestyle interventions to prevent cognitive decline and neurodegeneration.Because Alzheimer’s currently afflicts over 40 million people worldwide, I’m willing to bet most of you are directly or indirectly impacted by this affliction.The bad news is that there is currently no cure for Alzheimer’s.

It’s not due to a breakthrough in surgical procedures. It’s not the result of new pharmaceutical trials. It’s about food. Exercise. Restorative sleep. Community. And maintaining a life of purpose.Dr. Dean Sherzai, M.D., PhD., completed his medical and neurology residencies at Georgetown University with a subsequent fellowship in neurodegenerative diseases at the National Institutes of Health, followed by a second fellowship in Dementia and Geriatrics at the University of California, San Diego.

In this episode of Veggie Doctor Radio, I have lively conversation with Drs. Ayesha and Dean Sherzai about their newest book, The 30-Day Alzheimer’s Solution and what they want us to know about the brain right now. About featured guest: A unique husband and wife team on the cutting edge of brain science, Dr. Dean and Dr. Ayesha Sherzai are dedicated to educating people on the simple steps to long-term health and wellness through their work as Directors of the Alzheimer’s Prevention Program at Loma Linda University Health, with patients, as well as through online writing, videos, and books. There is a tsunami of diseases of the brain such as Alzheimer’s, stroke, and Parkinson’s disease permeating our culture. In our own communities and families, we all have known at least one person suffering from these illnesses and in many cases seen the fallout first-hand. There is no treatment for these diseases, and the emotional, financial and social burden is immense. These diseases are thieves, stealing time, money and ravaging the minds of our loved ones. The Sherzais see scientists and physicians working furiously to find a cure for these diseases, and in this frantic race against time somehow, the big picture is usually lost among the molecules and chemicals related to the diseases. As Co-Directors of the Alzheimer’s Prevention Program at Loma Linda University Medical Center, the Sherzais, through research and their extensive collective medical backgrounds, work to demystify the steps to achieving long-term brain health and the prevention of devastating diseases such as Alzheimer’s and dementia. On March 23rd, 2020, the Sherzais are launching their newest book, The 30-Day Alzheimer’s Solution, a brain-health conscious cookbook and lifestyle program grounded in rigorous science and explained simply with anecdotes, recipes, and actionable steps.

How to achieve better focus, a richer human experience and prevent cognitive decline with brain health experts Drs. Dean and Ayesha Sherzai, also known as Team Sherzai. Questions we answer: What diet is best for brain health? How can you optimize sleep for better cognitive function? Are alzheimer's and dementia related more to genetics or lifestyle? How can someone start taking better care of their brain? Can you improve your intellect through brain activities? Dr. Dean Sherzai is a behavioral neurologist/neuroscientist whose entire life has been dedicated to behavioral change models at the community and population level. He has revolutionized the world of public health nationally and internationally.

Eating fast food can be traumatic for the brain. In turn, the toxicity can increase the chance that you may develop Alzheimer’s disease. On this episode of The Exam Room™, Drs. Dean and Ayesha Sherzai join “The Weight Loss Champion” Chuck Carroll to explain why foods loaded with fat, sugar and salt can send brain cells into a frenzy! These are the very foods that are staples of the standard American diet! You will also learn the enormous number of calories the brain burns every day and how much better it can function by eating a healthy diet that contains plenty of whole fruits, vegetables, grains, and legumes. Eating these foods every day can also dramatically reduce the odds that you will become one of the millions of Americans who have been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease. Plus, Team Sherzai, authors of The 30-Day Alzheimer’s Solution, reveals the brain power boosting foods you need to bring home to your kitchen! — — — 30 Day Alzheimer’s Solution Book https://amzn.to/3sDnqwX — — — Team Sherzai IG: @sherzaimd Twitter: @SherzaiMD — — — PCRM Alzheimer’s Resources https://www.pcrm.org/alzheimers — — — International Conference on Nutrition in Medicine 2021 Register: https://pcrm.org/icnm — — — Chuck Carroll IG: @ChuckCarrollWLC Twitter: @ChuckCarrollWLC Facebook: https://wghtloss.cc/ChuckFacebook — — — Barnard Medical Center Telemedicine Schedule Appointment https://bit.ly/BMCtelemed 202-527-7500 — — — Physicians Committee Twitter: @PCRM IG: @PhysiciansCommittee Facebook: https://wghtloss.cc/PCRMFacebook YouTube: https://bit.ly/PCRMYouTube — — — Share the Show Please subscribe and give the show a 5-star rating on Apple Podcasts, Spotify or many other podcast providers.

Adam Sud and Tara Kemp, two rising stars in the plant-based movement, have been enveloped in a groundbreaking research study into the far-reaching impacts that plant-based nutrition can have on addiction and recovery; not just to help people stay sober, but in all facets of recovery - resilience, self-compassion, physical health, and spirituality. Believe it or not, this study is the first of its kind and is backed and supported by an enthusiastic and reputable team of physicians and experts, including Team Sherzai. They call their study the INFINITE study, which is wildly appropriate because these two have an infinite level of passion, commitment, and dedication to helping people reconnect with their true selves and rediscover their self-worth.

Team Sherzai, aka Dean and Ayesha, join me on the podcast to talk about the role of science and scientists in dealing with all the false statements propagated on social media (as well as, occasionally, traditional media). What the Sherzais value highly about science is the holy grail of falsifiability; the challenge that every theory and finding implicitly makes to other scientists: prove me wrong! They also appreciate the inherent humility that is baked into true science, as well as the imperfect nature of knowledge at any given time.

Welcome and thank you for listening. Are your legs strong? Do nutritional cheat days really matter? Today my guest Drs Ayesha and Dean Sherzai discuss these things and more. They call themselves TeamSherzai because they are co directors of the Alzheimer's Prevention Program at Loma Linda University. After being frustrated with the traditional pharmacologic model of treating dementia, they discovered the best treatment and prevention was founded on nutrition and healthy living. They coauthored a book called The Alzheimer's Solution that discusses the pillars of dementia prevention that include nutrition, exercise, mindfulness and sleep. We discuss such myths as cheat days, intermittent fasting followed by a poor diet as well as much more. Our brains require a great deal of energy to function daily. This means that blood flow to the brain is extremely important. Limiting that flow by a systemic blood pressure that is too low, and disease of the arteries feeding the brain can result in cognitive decline. One way to ensure good nutrient supply to the brain is to exercise daily and build strong legs. Having strong muscular legs will generate the blood flow needed to perfuse the brain as well as growth factors to promote neuron or brain cell growth and maintenance. Team Sherzai are believers in good habit development with regards to exercise and nutrition. It is also important to get these good exercise and nutrition habits developed at a young age in order to prevent decline that can begin in your twenties. Remember, if we are not growing we are declining. Check out their website at Teamsherzai.com and their book The Alzheimer's Solution for a reference on the prevention of dementia.

Ayesha Sherzai, MD, is one half of Team Sherzai, along with her husband, Dean (also MD). She's codirector of the Brain Health and Alzheimer's Prevention Program at Loma Linda University, where she leads the Lifestyle Program for the Prevention of Neurological Diseases. She's got three lifetime's worth of degrees (preventive medicine, neurology, advanced research methodology, lifestyle and vascular brain diseases) as well as certificates from two cooking schools.
In this episode of The Plant Trainers Podcast, we talk to Doctors Ayesha and Dean Sherzai, also known as Team Sherzai, about dementia and the Alzheimer’s solution. We have them break down dementia and give us all a better understanding of what brain diseases are plaguing us here in North America. Unsurprisingly, we learn that these diseases are spreading throughout the world just like diabetes and heart disease as the fast food culture migrates. We talk about the ideas around genes, preventing and reversing dementias so people can forget the myths and really understand the facts. Of course, Team Sherzai explains their whole body NEURO plan they use to educate their patients and readers on lifestyle change so that Alzheimer’s disease does not have to grab hold of its victims earlier or as forcibly as it does. As we know this affects not just the individual, but their family members who care about them as well. Listening to this episode and making even the smallest change can not only help you postpone or inevitably stop brain diseases from invading your life, but it can help with so many other prevalent diseases as well. This is the protocol for ultimate health. By 2030 a staggering 75 million people on our planet will be suffering from dementia and that number is estimated to double every 20 years. Please share with this episode with those you know need to hear this important message by emailing it to them directly or posting it on your social media. As Co-Directors of the Alzheimer’s Prevention Program at Loma Linda University Medical Center, Dr. Dean and Dr. Ayesha Sherzai, through research and their extensive collective medical backgrounds, work to demystify the steps to achieving long-term brain health and the prevention of devastating diseases such as Alzheimer’s and dementia. They are also the authors of the much-acclaimed book, The Alzheimer’s Solution: A Breakthrough Program to Prevent and Reverse the Symptoms of Cognitive Decline at Every Age.

This week I spoke with Dr Dean Sherzai and Dr Ayesha Sherzai, branded ‘Team Sherzai' about their ground breaking research into Alzheimers and their newly released book The Alzheimers Solution - an episode truly not to be missed.
“Food is the single greatest tool we have in the fight against Alzheimer’s.”Team SherzaiWhile other major diseases are in decline, deaths from Alzheimer's have increased dramatically in recent decades.In fact, Alzheimer's is currently the 6th (and due to massive under-reporting may be as high as the 3rd ) leading cause of death in the United States.Right now, over 47 million people worldwide currently live with Alzheimer's. By 2050, it's predicted this form of dementia will plague 135.5 million people across the globe.This disease has become so pervasive, chances are you have been directly or indirectly impacted through an afflicted loved one. If so, then you know first hand the devastation it creates. You've seen it's ravaging effects. Perhaps you've even shouldered the immense emotional, financial and social burden it produces — and the hopelessness it provokes.The sad truth is that Alzheimer's is a condition that Western medicine has utterly failed to combat, let alone cure. Simply put, there is no pharmaceutical or surgical treatment to effectively prevent or reverse this savage and cataclysmic condition.But there is hope.Alzheimer's isn't a genetic inevitability. A diagnosis doesn't have to come with a death sentence. In fact, according to this week's guests, 90% of all Alzheimer's cases can be prevented. And for the 10% with a strong genetic risk for cognitive decline, the disease can be delayed for ten to fifteen years.These are not estimates. Nor are they wishful thinking. They are conclusions based on rigorous science performed by neurologists Drs. Dean and Ayesha Sherzai. Co-directors of the Brain Health and Alzheimer's Prevention Program at Loma Linda University Medical Center, Team Sherzai is the dynamic husband and wife duo behind the largest clinical and observational study on Alzheimer's to date as well as the co-authors of The Alzheimer's Solution*, a must-read primer that details their extensive research, chronicles the remarkable results they have experienced working with patients first-hand, and sets forth the first ever comprehensive program to prevent Alzheimer's disease, improve cognitive function, and ultimately optimize long-term brain health.The solution might surprise you. It's not due to a breakthrough in surgical procedures. It's not the result of new pharmaceutical trials. Instead, as far fetched as it may sound, the answer is rooted in fundamental, simple changes in nutrition and lifestyle.Dr. Dean Sherzai, M.D., PhD., completed his medical and neurology residencies at Georgetown University with a subsequent fellowship in neurodegenerative diseases at the National Institutes of Health, followed by a second fellowship in Dementia and Geriatrics at the University of California, San Diego. He also holds two Masters Degrees; in advanced sciences at UCSD and a Masters in public health from Loma Linda University. Finally, he has received a Ph.D. in Healthcare leadership at Loma Linda/Andrews University.Dr. Ayesha Sherzai, M.D., completed her medical residency at Loma Linda University. She subsequently completed a residency in preventive medicine and neurology and thereafter received a fellowship in vascular neurology from Columbia University, and is currently finalizing her PhD in Epidemiology at Loma Linda University. Ayesha also has a culinary degree, giving her a unique understanding of nutrition as a powerful tool for disease prevention.This week I sit down with Team Sherzai for an in-depth, See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
A unique husband and wife team on the cutting edge of brain science, Dr. Dean and Dr. Ayesha Sherzai are dedicated to educating people on the simple steps to long-term health and wellness through their work as Directors of the Alzheimer’s Prevention Program at Loma Linda University Medical Center, with patients, as well as through online writing, videos, and books. We discuss all things from how millennials are killing science to how healthy eating creates a a healthy brain and ultimately provides you with the best life possible all the way to their parents death inspiring them to educate the world in brain health.

The Doctors Ayesha and Dean Sherzai are neurologists and co-directors of the Brain Health and Alzheimers Prevention Program at Loma Linda University in California. They are a dedicated team focused on not just treating conditions, but looking to the source of a patient's health issues, and determining the preventive path. Loma Linda is regarded as a Blue Zone (communities where 'elders live with vim and vigor to record-setting ages') and thus provides a basis of things that constitute a healthy life style. The Drs Sherzai have written a must have book, a guide to our own better health: The Alzheimers Solutions, A Breakthrough Program to Prevent and Reverse the Symptoms of Cognitive Decline at Every Age. Proceeds from the book benefit a Brain Health Initiative created by the Doctors. www.teamsherzai.com
