Age of Aging

A MINDful Diet


Listen Later

Being intentional about our diet is one of the best things we can do for the health and longevity of our brain. But what exactly is a healthy brain diet—and how do we make it realistic?  

 In the season 5 premiere of the Age of Aging, we break down the science and strategy behind the MIND diet and what it looks like to shop and eat for cognitive longevity. 

 

Inside this episode: 

  • Terrence sits down with Dr. Jason Karlawish to discuss the results and implications of the U.S. POINTER study for healthy brain aging. 
    • Dr. Karlawish explains the science behind the MIND diet and how he implements it in his daily life.  
      • Registered dietitian nutritionist (and Terrence’s sister) Trish St. Ledger shares how to create nutritious meals that are both simple and affordable. St. Ledger provides an overview of a what typical day of breakfast, lunch, and dinner might look like following the MIND diet.
