Diet, Exercise and Alzheimer’s

There’s no one-size-fits-all cure for Alzheimer’s—but could small shifts in food and movement help slow things down? 

In this honest and hope-filled episode, Janna and Larry share what they’ve personally tried in the areas of diet and exercise, and how those changes have impacted Janna’s inflammation, energy, and daily outlook. From anti-inflammatory foods to brain-boosting walks, they offer no medical claims—just real results, told straight from lived experience. (Be sure to check the links to our research on our site at alzheimersthriver.org) 

You’ll discover: 

• How cutting refined sugar and empty carbs impacted Janna’s energy and joint pain 
• What a typical day of brain-supportive meals looks like (including dessert!) 
• Simple, do-anywhere exercises to boost circulation and cognition 
• Why trying hard things—like reading or music—can still grow new brain pathways 

This isn’t about perfect plans—it’s about practical, encouraging steps toward thriving. And if you’ve been feeling discouraged, Janna’s message at the end will give you the boost you didn’t know you needed.
