| 10/5/23 | The power of community for better brain health | In this episode, we discuss the often-overlooked importance of addressing behavior change for improving brain health and overall wellbeing, and how we need to involve our communities at every step of change towards such optimizations. We talk about: • The neuroscience and circumstantial influences of behavior change • The importance of meeting people where they are and adjusting behavior change strategies accordingly • How to strategize self-improvement without it feeling cold, rigid, unnatural, and, ultimately, ineffective • Why the past can teach us a lot about modern behavior change at a community level This is part one of a conversation about behavior, the systems that make it possible, and how we can achieve long-term change in the midst of a healthcare landscape that can sometimes feel hopeless.

| 9/1/23 | Beyond Heartburn: Probing the Association Between Proton Pump Inhibitor and Dementia | In this episode In this illuminating episode, we dive deep into the world of proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), commonly prescribed medications for heartburn and acid reflux. While these drugs have brought relief to millions worldwide, recent studies have begun to uncover potential links between PPI use and an increased risk of dementia. We explore the mechanisms that might underlie this association, the clinical implications for patients, and the broader question of how seemingly unrelated conditions might be connected at a molecular level. Whether you're a healthcare professional, a patient on PPIs, or simply someone curious about the intricate web of human health, this episode promises to offer fresh insights into a hotly debated area of medicine.

| 8/10/23 | The MIND Diet Debacle: Uncovering the Randomized Controlled Trial's Oversights and Implications | In this episode, we dive deep into the recent, much anticipated randomized controlled trial on the MIND diet. The headlines were ablaze with the dissapointing, less-than-stellar results of the study, but was it truly the diet that didn't work as well as it should have, or was the methodology flawed? We discussed the background of the findings on the MIND diet in previous studies and its effect on cognitive health, the detailed methodology of the current randomized controlled trial, its outcomes and how it impacts our understanding of nutrition and brain health.

| 7/28/23 | Beyond Myths: The Latest Evidence on Fats and Brain Function | In this episode, we delve deep into the role fats play in brain health. We bust some common myths about dietary fats and talked about the latest scientific evidence to paint a clearer picture of how these essential nutrients contribute to our cognitive function. Episode Highlights: Understanding Fats: We start by breaking down what fats are, discussing their diverse types and functions. We'll explain saturated, unsaturated, trans, and essential fatty acids and why they matter. Brain Composition and Fats: Our brains are nearly 60% fat. We explore how these fats maintain the structure of the brain and facilitate its various functions. Fats and Hormone Production: Hormones regulate many bodily functions, including those of the brain. We'll detail how fats are integral to the production of vital hormones. Importance of Fats for Cell Membrane Health and Myelin Sheath: We dive into how fats contribute to the integrity of cell membranes and why this is crucial for efficient brain function. Fats as an Energy Source: While glucose is the preferred fuel, fats can also power our brains. Discover the conditions under which the brain turns to fats for energy. Critical Role of Fats in Brain Development: Learn about the critical role certain fats play in brain development during infancy and childhood. Fats in Brain Aging and Cognitive Decline - the latest research: We'll explore recent research that shows how consuming healthy fats can potentially slow cognitive decline and decrease the risk of neurodegenerative diseases. Fats' Impact on Inflammation and Oxidative Stress: Finally, we'll explore how omega-3 fatty acids help to reduce inflammation and oxidative stress, factors implicated in many neurological disorders. In this episode, we venture beyond myths and take a look at the science behind fats and brain function. Join us as we uncover the intricate role of fats in maintaining a healthy brain and its impact on our mental health.

| 7/21/23 | Shifting Perspectives: Hormone Replacement Therapy, Menopause, and the Dementia Dialogue | In this episode, we explore the connection between hormone replacement therapy and dementia risk, the impact of hormones on brain development and resilience throughout life, and the critical considerations for individuals undergoing pre- and post-menopause in terms of brain health. Specifically, we delve into a recent scientific article suggesting that menopausal hormone replacement therapy heightens the risk of dementia in a Danish population. We illuminate the intricate relationship between hormones, lifestyle risk factors, and brain health. Reference: Pourhadi, N., Mørch, L. S., Holm, E. A., Torp-Pedersen, C., & Meaidi, A. (2023).

| 5/11/23 | Donanemab: A New Ray of Hope in the Fight Against Alzheimer's | Welcome to the latest episode of our podcast, where we discuss the latest breakthrough in the fight against Alzheimer's disease. In today's episode, we discussed the new monoclonal antibidy, Donanemab, that is offering hope to Alzheimer's patients and their families, and how Donanemab is different from other treatments. Donanemab is a monoclonal antibody that has shown promising results in clinical trials. It works by targeting a protein called amyloid-beta, which is believed to play a significant role in the development of Alzheimer's disease. The drug binds to the amyloid-beta protein and clears it from the brain, reducing the amount of plaque buildup that causes damage to brain cells. While the results of the clinical trials are promising, there are still many challenges to overcome. Donanemab is expensive and requires regular infusions, which may limit its accessibility. There is also a need for further research to determine the long-term effects of the drug and its efficacy in treating different stages of Alzheimer's.

| 4/6/23 | The Most Common Neurological Disorder Among Young Adults - Multiple Sclerosis | This episode is an in depth review of Multiple Sclerosis, The most common neurological disorder among young adults. Multiple Sclerosis is an autoimmune disease of the central nervous system and is one of the most common conditions that is addressed in the field of neurology. Despite the advances in medicine and the emergence of tools to help with diagnosis, it is one of the most common conditions that is misdiagnosed because of its highly variable expression and findings. This can create a unique set of issues for patients, and the goal of this podcast episode is to shed light on the advances in our knowledge of MS, busts some myths regarding the management of MS, which unfortunately is quite common in the wellness space, and to recognize that there are medications, therapies, coping strategies, and support groups to help address these problems. If you or anyone you know is experiencing any of the symptoms, it is important that they speak with a physician,or a nurse or call the National MS Society at 1-800-344-4867.
