I'm Donnie Osman and welcome to the Brain Warrior's Way, hosted by my friends Daniel and Tanna Aeman.

In this podcast, you're going to learn that the war for your health is one between your ears.

That's right. If you're ready to be sharper and have better memory, mood, energy, and focus,

well then stay with us. Here are Daniel and Tana Aaman.

Hi, my name is Linda, and Dr. Aaman, I thought that the brain was fixed and if it got hurt it couldn't be

repaired. Are you suggesting something different?

I am. In fact, most people still believe that that if you hurt the brain or you have a brain injury,

there's no way to repair it.

What we've seen is that's just not right.

It was more than 10 years ago, neuroscientists found that certain areas of the brain

actually could grow new neurons.

And one of those areas is called the hippocampus.

So the hippocampus is in your temperalobes,

which are underneath your temples and behind your eyes.

And they're the first area of the brain

that starts to die in Alzheimer's disease.

And we know stress hurts cells there, trauma can hurt cells there,

toxins can hurt cells there.

But when you exercise, when you really get on brain

healthy diet, taking some simple supplements.

We've seen significant improvements in that area.

And then in the show, I was so excited to tell the story.
