In this episode of The Best You Podcast, I sit down with brain health expert and health coach Lindsey Byrne, who is on a mission to help people prevent cognitive decline through nutrition, exercise, sleep, and lifestyle habits.
Lindsey shares practical and science-backed strategies to reduce your risk for Alzheimer’s and dementia—especially critical for women, who are statistically twice as likely to develop these conditions.
If you want to keep your memory sharp, your brain strong, and your life full of vitality as you age—this conversation is a game-changer.
You’ll learn:
● Why Alzheimer’s isn’t just genetic—and how lifestyle plays a huge role
● The cognitive test you should take every 6–12 months starting at age 30
● The foods to avoid and the foods to prioritize for better brain health
● The exercise protocols that support neurological longevity
● How supplements, sleep, and stress all tie into cognitive performance
● How Lindsey’s mom reversed symptoms of dementia through lifestyle change
