Show Highlights & Big Takeaways
1. Dementia & Heart Health: Dementia risk is strongly tied to cardiovascular health. Research shows that keeping blood sugar, blood pressure, and cholesterol within optimal ranges can significantly reduce cognitive decline, even if you have a genetic predisposition.
2. An Avocado a Day: A 2022 study showed that adding a daily avocado did not lead to weight gain and actually improved metabolic and heart health. Anti-inflammatory fats like those found in avocado and olive oil support blood sugar balance, brain health, and cardiovascular function.
3. Rewiring the Mind: I recently picked up The Game of Life and How to Play It, an older book I was surprised I hadn’t read sooner. Its message is timeless: our thoughts, beliefs, faith, and intentions shape our outcomes. Rewiring the mind is just as important as optimizing the body.
