In today's episode, Dr. Jockers chats with 'America's neurologist,' Dr. David Perlmutter. It's an illuminating listen about why we need to act before it's too late when it comes to neurodegenerative diseases. It's a gentle warning on why we need to make lifestyle changes – and it's an authoritative guide on how to do it.

 

There's advice on 'brain food' eating tips, the importance of a good night's sleep, why too much protein can be a bad thing, and the value of human connection as we navigate all the new information out there in this age of increasing anxiety and stress. 

 

Dr. Jockers is calm and thorough as he engages Dr. David Perlmutter. They go through all the practical things we can do to ensure we avoid MCI (Mild Cognitive Impairment) and dementia. 

 

This conversation is between two titans of industry, as they remind us that the body can heal itself. We are fortunate to get all this advice for free – so best we listen up!

 

"The most powerful thing – in fact, the only thing – that was scientifically proven to reduce your risk from going from Mild Cognitive Impairment to full-blown dementia was something called… exercise!"

-Dr. David Perlmutter
