Most people believe Alzheimer's is an incurable, one-way street of decline. But what if our entire approach has been wrong? This episode provides powerful insights on maintaining optimal brain health through a healthy lifestyle and discusses practical methods of dementia and Alzheimer's disease prevention.

They reveal the #1 dietary driver of brain inflammation (a key part of a proper diet for brain health) and explore the other critical foundations, including the links between exercise and dementia and the vital role of quality sleep.
