What if I told you that high blood pressure, poor diet, and stress are not just harming your heart but are silently affecting your brain health, too? In this episode, I have an amazing conversation with neuroradiologist Dr. Peter Rogers to discuss how conditions like hypertension, atherosclerosis, and even leaky gut are contributing to brain decline and Alzheimer’s risk.

Dr. Rogers shares his groundbreaking theories on how vascular diseases affect brain function and why addressing blood pressure and maintaining a healthy diet are crucial for protecting cognitive health. From blood clots to kidney disease, we explore the critical role the circulatory system plays in maintaining brain health.

Tune in to discover how reversing vascular issues can boost your brain health for years to come!
