Did you know that you can grow new brain cells as an adult? In this episode, Dr. Brant Cortright, author of The Neurogenesis Diet and Lifestyle, joins me to share cutting-edge insights on how diet, lifestyle, and natural supplements can help stimulate the growth of new brain cells and enhance brain health.

Dr. Cortright reveals that the brain is capable of neurogenesis throughout life. By adopting a neurogenic, anti-inflammatory, and ketogenic diet, along with proper supplementation, we can enhance cognitive function and protect against Alzheimer’s disease. You'll also learn how specific foods like omega-3-rich fish, curcumin, and blueberries, along with key lifestyle practices, can support neurogenesis.

This episode provides actionable steps to enhance brain health, reduce the risk of dementia, and improve overall cognitive well-being. Tune in to start your journey toward better brain health today!
