Summary

[Original air date: March 11, 2021]. In this episode, international expert in neurodegenerative diseases, Dr. Dale Bredesen, talks with Tom about the reversibility of cognitive decline and Alzheimer’s disease. While Alzheimer’s disease is well known as a progressive disease impacting seniors, too many people are missing the opportunity to course correct and reverse the effects of cognitive decline leading to Alzheimer’s disease in their younger years. Dr. Bredesen explains simple ways for you to improve these conditions, avoid them altogether, and enhance your mental cognition. He discusses the importance of reducing toxins and exposes four factors that are largely responsible for the decline in optimal cognitive performance.

And unfortunately, so many of us are literally giving ourselves cognitive decline or simply

0:06.4

suboptimal cognition because we are not doing the right thing.

0:15.0

Hey, everybody.

0:16.0

Welcome to another episode of Health Theory.

0:18.0

I am here with Dr. Dale Bredesen, who is a world-renowned brain health

0:22.8

researcher and the best-selling author of The End of Alzheimer's. Dale, welcome to the show.

0:28.7

Thanks so much, Tom. Great to be here. So I want to dive into something that is extraordinarily

0:36.2

important to me, which is cognitive optimization.

0:38.7

It's something that I think a lot about. And there are few people that I've seen take the

0:45.1

approach that you take. Most people have said for ever, basically, that there is no cure for

0:50.2

cognitive decline. And once you're sort of on the backslide, that's just it. There's not a lot

0:54.7

that you can do. You were so bold as to write a book called The End of Alzheimer's. So what is it

1:02.5

that you know that everybody else doesn't? Yeah. And I should say, you know, that cognitive

1:08.6

optimization now goes very well with prevention of Alzheimer's

1:13.4

in the future. So what we used to think of as, hey, you don't have to worry about this until you're

1:17.6

in your 60s. No, we should be doing in our teens, 20s, 30s, 40s, we will get better outcomes.

1:23.9

We will get, you know, we will get better brain health. We'll get better performance. So the goal of my

1:29.4

laboratory over the years was to look at what are the molecular mechanisms that drive the

1:36.2

degenerative state. People say Alzheimer's is because of free radicals. It's because of metal

1:42.1

binding problems. It's because of misfolded proteins. It's because of

1:45.8

preons. It's because, you know, what have you. And the reality is that people don't understand what it is.

1:53.5

So that's what we set out to look at 30 years ago. And what we found was really surprising.
