This podcast interviews a functional medicine practitioner about the multifaceted approach to treating dementia, contrasting it with the traditional, reductionist model focused on single-drug interventions. The discussion covers modifiable risk factors like toxins, nutrients, stress, infections, and lifestyle choices (diet, exercise, sleep). A specific example highlights a patient's significant cognitive improvement after addressing multiple factors, including mold exposure and mercury levels. The podcast emphasizes a holistic, personalized approach to brain health, advocating for lifestyle changes and functional medicine interventions to mitigate dementia risk.
