Key Strategies to Prevent Dementia and Optimize Brain Health with Dr Heather Sandison

Published: Nov. 28, 2023, noon

How can we use intermittent fasting as well as exercise and nutrition strategies to optimize our brain health and prevent dementia and Alzheimer's Disease?\xa0

\xa0

To help answer that question, Dr. Jockers has sought the help of Dr. Heather Sandison, a renowned naturopathic doctor who has dedicated her career to helping those suffering from dementia.

Keeping your brain sharp at any age is possible. Dr. Sandison is here to shatter those (and other) misconceptions we might have about our brain health. Clinical research has shown that good sleep, regular exercise, and intermittent fasting can all reduce the risk of dementia.\xa0

There are also some great book resources that Dr. Sandison shares, as well as thoughts on cognitive exercise and how to deal with toxic air pollution in your immediate environment. The solution to pollution is dilution!

When it comes to gut health, bone broth is one of my \u2018go to\u2019 items I add to my diet. But, not all collagen is created equal. Many brands use poor-quality bones and heating methods that remove all of the potent benefits of collagen.\xa0

\xa0

That is why I choose to use Paleovalley Bone Broth Protein Powder, you can get all the gut healing benefits without the mess from a company that uses only 100% grass-fed and finished cows and is not processed with high heat or extracted with harmful chemicals.\xa0

\xa0

There are no fillers, flow agents, or added flavors. There is only ONE ingredient in this product and it's bovine bone broth protein. Visit paleovalley.com/jockers\xa0

\u201cAbout 10,000 steps a day reduces your risk of developing dementia by half."
