Brain Fog, Cognitive Impairment, and Combating Alzheimer's with Lindsey Byrne
In this episode, host Mary discusses brain health during menopause and the impactful Bredesen Protocol® with guest Lindsey Byrne.
Lindsey is a cognitive health and functional medicine coach who focuses on natural, non-pharmaceutical approaches to improve cognitive function. She begins the conversation by sharing her personal journey with her mother's battle with Alzheimer's that led her to the work with the Bredesen Protocol®, inspired by Dr. Dale Bredesen.
The conversation delves deeply into the cornerstone principles of the protocol including ketogenic diet with flexible fasting practices, the importance of sleep, stress management, and movement, and how these factors contribute to brain health. They also explore other factors impairing our cognitive function including alcohol, which is a significant endocrine disruptors to be aware of, and mold toxicity.
