What you eat today can influence whether you will be diagnosed with Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease in the future.   Nutritional epidemiologist Dr. Puja Agarwal makes her debut on The Exam Room™ podcast to share her hope-filled research on both diseases when she joins “The Weight Loss Champion” Chuck Carroll. The hope Dr. Agarwal provides is for not only the future but also the present, as she also reveals the foods that may help slow the progression of Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease for those already living with these conditions.   Chuck also details a new study that finds eating a plant-based diet that includes soy can reduce moderate-to-severe hot flashes by more than 80%!   Dr. Agarwal will be speaking at the 2021 International Conference on Nutrition in Medicine.
