Podcast: Play in new window | Download

Did you know you can detect Alzheimer’s risk in your 20s with a simple blood test? In this Habits and Hustle episode, I sit down with Dr. Dale Bredesen, the first scientist to successfully reverse Alzheimer’s disease.

We explore the three major causes of cognitive decline, why your brain fog might be pre-Alzheimer’s, and the shocking truth about everyday toxins like sushi, hair dye, and microplastics. We also dive into the KetoFlex 12-3 protocol and why 45 million Americans are headed for Alzheimer’s. From sleep apnea’s brain damage to the surprising benefits of saunas and cold plunges, this episode transforms everything you thought you knew about brain health.

Dr. Dale Bredesen is an internationally recognized expert in neurodegenerative diseases and creator of the ReCODE Protocol™. He earned his M.D. from Duke University, served as founding President and CEO of the Buck Institute, and is author of the New York Times bestseller The End of Alzheimer’s.
