Did you know that over 7 million Americans live with Alzheimer’s—and that number is expected to nearly double by 2050? Despite decades of research and billions spent, most treatments only offer minimal slowing of symptoms.

But what if we’ve been approaching this disease all wrong?

In this powerful episode of The Metabolic Link, host Victoria Field sits down with renowned neurologist, researcher, and bestselling author Dr. Dale Bredesen. He shares how Alzheimer’s isn’t caused by one thing—and why he says a single-pill solution is a fundamentally flawed approach. Dr. Bredesen discusses his 30+ years of research into cognitive decline, the systems-based ReCODE Protocol that’s showing incredible success in reversing symptoms, and why early detection is everything.

From brain biomarkers to root causes like inflammation, toxins, and metabolic dysfunction, this is a masterclass on how we can take action—long before symptoms take hold.

🎯 Plus: In honor of World Alzheimer's Month, we're hosting a Live Q&A with Dr. Bredesen on Sept 4th at 9AM PT/12PM ET — FREE with a 7-day trial of our medical education platform, the Metabolic Initiative. Sign up: https://membership.metabolicinitiative.com/bredesen
