While this might seem depressing, there are actually many exciting discoveries changing the future of wellness, like our increased understanding of the microbiome and how it interacts with the brain. This dynamic has profound implications for mental health, reducing the risk of neurodegenerative diseases, and even supporting positive behavior in our children.

We explore: Why don’t we try to prevent brain dysfunction the same way we do cardiovascular disease and other illnesses?
