Video Description
Experts are warning that alzheimer's disease could affect 47 million Americans, emphasizing the need for proactive brain health strategies. This discussion challenges the notion that cognitive decline and memory loss are inevitable aspects of aging. Learn about the silent threat of neurodegenerative disease and how to maintain senior health. In this episode, Dr. Mark Hyman is joined by leading preventive neurologist Dr. Richard Isaacson to discuss the revolutionary "precision neurology" approach that is successfully preventing and even reversing early signs of cognitive decline. Dr. Isaacson, Director of Research at the Institute for Neurodegenerative Diseases, shares why the old model of "diagnose and adios" has failed 99% of the time and cost $2 trillion in research. He explains that Alzheimer's isn't just an older person's disease; the changes can be detected decades before the first symptom appears. Learn how Dr. Isaacson uses a personalized, "N of 1" approach—looking at everything from belly fat and muscle mass to specific blood tests and genetics—to create a "cocktail" of interventions that can measurably improve brain health. In this episode, you will learn: Why dementia is not just an older person's disease (and when it really starts) The "A, B, C, D, E" framework for Alzheimer's prevention (Anthropometrics, Bloodwork, Cognition, DNA, Emotion) The shocking link: "The bigger your belly, the smaller your brain" How to find out if you are an "over-absorber" or "over-producer" of cholesterol The #1 most effective lifestyle intervention for brain health Which specific foods (like olive oil, berries, and cocoa) protect the brain The crucial, under-discussed role of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) for women in perimenopause Dr. Isaacson’s free tool to assess your own risk: https://retainyourbrain.com Resource mentioned: CNN Feature - https://www.cnn.com/videos/title-2538046 #Alzheimers #Dementia #BrainHealth #AlzheimersPrevention #MemoryLoss #CognitiveHealth #DrMarkHyman #DrRichardIsaacson #PreventiveNeurology #Neuroscience #APOE4 #BrainFood #healthyaging View Show Notes From This Episode Get Free Weekly Health Tips from Dr. Hyman https://drhyman.com/pages/picks?utm_campaign=shownotes&utm_medium=banner&utm_source=podcast Sign Up for Dr. Hyman’s Weekly Longevity Journal https://drhyman.com/pages/longevity?utm_campaign=shownotes&utm_medium=banner&utm_source=podcast Join the 10-Day Detox to Reset Your Health https://drhyman.com/pages/10-day-detox Join the Hyman Hive for Expert Support and Real Results https://drhyman.com/pages/hyman-hive This episode is brought to you by Seed, Paleovalley, Function Health, BON CHARGE, Sunlighten and PerfectAmino.
