When you stop learning, your brain starts dying
Can your genes really dictate your brain health destiny? In this episode of The Brain Warrior’s Way Podcast, TV personality Leeza Gibbons teams up with Dr. Daniel Amen and Tana Amen to tackle this burning question. They dive into the risks of Alzheimer’s disease, particularly for those over 85, and explore how everyone with a brain is at some level of risk. But don’t fret—there are practical steps you can take to keep your brain sharp, no matter your age.
Gibbons and the Amens stress the importance of blood flow for brain health. They share some tasty tips like incorporating beets, cayenne pepper, and rosemary into your diet to boost circulation. The discussion doesn’t stop there; they also touch on how protein and healthy fats play a crucial role in maintaining a healthy brain. Inflammation is another hot topic in this episode.
Gibbons brings up the surprising link between gum disease and brain inflammation, urging listeners to pay attention to oral health. And what about genetics? Even if you have the e4 gene, which is linked to a higher risk of cognitive decline, Dr. Amen and Tana Amen assure that you can still take steps to lower your risk. The episode is packed with actionable advice and is a treasure trove for anyone looking to maintain their mental sharpness.
As Gibbons puts it, “When you stop learning, your brain starts dying”. This episode is your guide to lifelong brain health, filled with tips that are both easy to implement and scientifically backed.
