Manage episode 447543336 series 2785927
In this clip, we’re with my guest Dr. William Li, a renowned physician, scientist, and author of "Eat to Beat Disease," to discuss the critical topic of Alzheimer's and dementia. We delve into the factors that contribute to cognitive decline and explore actionable strategies for prevention. Dr. Li shares insights on how our gut microbiome profoundly influences brain health and its potential role in reducing the risk of neurodegenerative diseases.
We examine the impact of genetics, head trauma, and environmental factors on the development of dementia. Dr. Li emphasizes the importance of maintaining a healthy gut through diet and how early lifestyle choices can influence our brain's resiliency. We also discuss the significance of regular physical activity at every stage of life, not just for cognitive function but for overall well-being and mobility.
Additionally, we explore how modern lifestyles—such as prolonged sitting and excessive screen time—affect our physical and mental health. Dr. Li offers practical advice on incorporating movement into daily routines and underscores the importance of quality sleep for brain function.
