Louisa Nicola explains why dementia is not just a disease of old age, but rather a disease of lifestyle. In this episode, Don sits down with renowned neurophysiologist and founder of the Neuro Experience podcast, Louisa Nicola, to discuss one of the most devastating conditions: Alzheimer’s disease.

She reveals the staggering statistic that 95% of Alzheimer’s cases can be prevented and shares the exact protocols she recommends for risk reduction, even if you have a family history or the ApoE e4 gene.

In this episode, you will learn:

What is Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) and the alarming rate at which it can accelerate.

Why women represent two-thirds of all Alzheimer’s cases and the role of hormonal shifts.

Why Alzheimer's is sometimes called "Type 3 Diabetes" and how the brain literally starves itself of glucose.

Louisa’s #1 tool for prevention: the minimum strength and aerobic exercise required to protect your brain. (Hint: Bigger legs = bigger brain!).

The benefits of the MIND Diet and why Louisa champions exogenous ketones as an alternative fuel source for the brain.

The paramount importance of sleep for clearing brain plaque and the hidden dangers of a sedentary lifestyle.
