Manage episode 481359240 series 2798350
Is Alzheimer’s disease just something we have to wait and worry about as we age? Amy Lang doesn’t think so.
In this episode of The Optimal Aging Podcast, Jay Croft talks with Amy Lang, a brain health coach and former gym owner whose personal experience with Alzheimer’s — both her mother and grandmother were diagnosed — set her on a mission to educate others.
Amy shares how lifestyle factors like exercise, nutrition, stress, sleep, and social connection can dramatically reduce the risk of cognitive decline. If you're a fitness or wellness professional serving clients over 50, you’ll hear why this is a conversation you need to be having — and how you can help lead the way.
This is a hopeful, empowering episode packed with real-life insight and practical takeaways.
