Summary
In this episode of Bulletproof Radio, Maria Shriver, the mother of four, a Peabody Award-winning and Emmy Award-winning journalist and producer, an NBC News special anchor, and the author of seven New York Times bestselling books, joins Dave Asprey to talk about a cause close to her heart.
Maria's been championing Alzheimer's awareness for years. She's been reporting on it, writing about it, fundraising for it, and bringing awareness to Alzheimer's Disease for 15 years, especially in women.
This started because in 2003 her father was diagnosed with Alzheimer's, and since that time she hasn't stopped fighting for a cure and has become one of the Nation's premier Alzheimer's advocates.
Shriver is also the founder of the nonprofit The Women’s Alzheimer’s Movement, which is hosting Move for Minds - a month-long initiative this June to educate the public about brain health and raise funds for women-based Alzheimer's research.
