What if the root cause of Alzheimer's isn't just in the brain? Discover how insulin resistance, toxins, and inflammation are silently linked to cognitive decline and how a holistic approach could offer hope for prevention and reversal.

In this episode, I had the privilege of interviewing Dr. Yousef Elyaman, a double board-certified physician, about the intricate connections between systemic health and Alzheimer’s disease. Dr. Elyaman explains why Alzheimer's isn’t just a brain disorder, but rather a whole-body disease that requires a comprehensive, personalized approach.

From addressing insulin resistance and inflammation to understanding the role of toxins, this episode brings hope and actionable insights for preventing and even reversing cognitive decline. Dr. Elyaman discusses integrative treatments that go beyond conventional methods, including how lifestyle changes and nutritional adjustments can improve brain health.

“The whole question of Alzheimer's not just being a disease of the brain—I think that that is one of the biggest reasons we're not finding a cure for Alzheimer's.

It's not just a brain disease. There is a systemic thing that is happening.”
