Summary

In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Mirella Díaz-Santos, an expert in Alzheimer's disease research and neurology, as she guides us through the realm of brain health and wellness, with a special focus on the Latiné community. Drawing from her own experiences, Dr. Díaz-Santos shares the profound impact of her grandmother, Estrella, on her journey of Alzheimer's advocacy. Delving into the science, Dr. Díaz-Santos explains the concept of neuroplasticity, illustrating how our brains continually adapt and evolve. These dynamic changes are pivotal for our overall well-being, underscoring the importance of prioritizing brain health in our daily lives. Furthermore, our conversation explores the disparities in Alzheimer's research and healthcare access, particularly among underserved communities. Dr. Díaz-Santos emphasizes the need to address structural and social determinants of health to bridge these gaps, offering practical advice for listeners eager to enact positive change.
