Dr. Sandison emphasizes the critical role of addressing factors like blood sugar levels, insulin resistance, and stress in the context of dementia and Alzheimer’s disease. She also focuses on the importance of an organic ketogenic diet, brain-engaging activities, and a non-toxic environment. The episode offers a wealth of insights, from the impact of stress on cognitive function to the limitations of pharmaceutical interventions, empowering listeners with knowledge and options for optimizing cognition.
A multifocal approach to treating dementia can lead to improved cognitive function and overall well-being in patients. By addressing various factors such as diet, exercise, and stress management, individuals can potentially reverse Alzheimer’s and optimize cognition. This holistic approach offers hope and empowerment for those affected by cognitive decline and their carers.
Implementing an organic ketogenic diet can have significant benefits for brain health and cognition. This type of diet, emphasizing healthy fats and low-carb intake, has been shown to support cognitive function and potentially reverse Alzheimer’s. By prioritizing organic, whole foods, individuals can improve brain health and protect against cognitive decline.
Engaging in dual-task exercises, combining cognitive and physical activities, can have transformative effects on cognitive function. Activities like dance classes, yoga, or pickleball not only promote physical fitness but also support mental acuity and brain health. By incorporating these exercises into daily routines, you can enhance your cognition and potentially reverse Alzheimer’s.
