A decline in cognition, whether it’s forgetting names or just not being able to think as clearly as you once did, can be a scary thing. However, it’s possible to regain brain function and take back our lives. It’s important to start taking care of our brains early, as Alzheimer’s and dementia often develop up to 30 years prior to the onset of serious symptoms. Dr. Dale Bredesen talks about how adding in the right inputs, while taking out the offenders, can actually reverse the devastating symptoms of cognitive decline.
Also, Dr. Richard Isaacson discusses the importance of personalizing Functional Medicine care for patients who are suffering from cognitive decline.
Dr. Dale Bredesen is internationally recognized as an expert in the mechanisms of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s disease, and the author of the New York Times bestsellers The End of Alzheimer’s, The End of Alzheimer’s Program, and his latest book The First Survivors of Alzheimer’s: How Patients Recovered Life and Hope in Their Own Words.
Dr. Richard Isaacson serves as Director of the Center for Brain Health and Director of the Alzheimer’s Prevention Clinic (APC) at Florida Atlantic University’s Schmidt College of Medicine. He previously served as Director of the APC at the Weill Cornell Memory Disorders Program, Assistant Dean of Faculty Development, and Associate Professor of Neurology at Weill Cornell Medicine & NewYork-Presbyterian. He remains as Adjunct Associate Professor of Neurology in the Department of Neurology at Weill Cornell. Prior to that, he served as Associate Professor of Clinical Neurology, Vice-Chair of Education, and Education Director of the McKnight Brain Institute in the Department of Neurology at the University of Miami (UM) Miller School of Medicine. Prior to joining UM, he served as Associate Medical Director of the Wien Center for Alzheimer’s disease and Memory Disorders at Mount Sinai.
