Listen Later

Dementia rates are skyrocketing, and cognitive decline is a growing concern. But what if you could actually grow a new brain? In this episode of The Dr. Hyman Show, I sit down with Alberto Villoldo, PhD, a medical anthropologist and shamanic healer (and author of Grow a New Brain), to explore the powerful intersection of ancient wisdom and cutting-edge neuroscience.

In this eye-opening conversation, you’ll discover:

  • The Amazonian secret to protecting the brain from dementia and cognitive decline.
  • How certain plant compounds can activate your body’s natural detox and repair systems.
  • The surprising role of gut health in brain regeneration—and how to reset your microbiome.
  • Why serotonin depletion is wreaking havoc on mental health and how to restore balance.
  • How shamanic healing and modern science align to create lasting cognitive health.

  • Tune in to learn how you can take control of your brain health and unlock the potential for true regeneration.
