Manage episode 499714897 series 3614465
Are you forgetting things more often, waking up foggy, or wondering if it’s “just stress”—or something more serious? You’re not alone—and you’re not powerless.
In this episode, I share the true story of a woman in her 50s who was told she had early signs of dementia. But through daily choices and a shift in lifestyle, she’s now turning things around. Whether you’re feeling off or just want to protect your brain long-term, this conversation is a must-listen.
This episode continues our powerful mini-series on prevention, brain health, and how to create a lifestyle that keeps you mentally sharp for years to come.

- The truth about MCT oil, fish oil, and high-fat diets
- Why intermittent fasting supports brain and liver function
- The surprising role weather and air quality play in mental clarity
