Hey, grief gang. It's your favorite comedy death dula, your host, Jesse May Paluso.

And today's episode is a re-release that is really close to my heart.

While I am going through some personal things, I found this episode, and I loved it.

It's with my old friend, author, and brain health expert, Max Lugavir,

who opens up about his mom's journey with Louis Body Dementia, one of the most

unforgiving diseases there is. We talk about how loss changes your family, the stresses of

caregiving, and those little moments of kindness that help you survive at all. But we also get

nerdy, like really nerdy. We dig into the truth about nutrition, longevity, sleep, and what foods actually protect your

brain.

It's science meets sadness, meets hopes with a few laughs in between, maybe some tequila.

So if you've ever loved someone with dementia or you just want to keep your brain healthy

while you're losing

your mind like the rest of us, then this episode is for you. I hope you guys enjoy today's

episode with the one, the only, Max Lugavir.

shitty about the choices I make and realizing that a lot of the information is misinformation.

So here to clarify a lot and also talk about his own struggles and talk about, you know, loss

and in love and trying to live a healthier life, author of the genius foods, author of
