Ever wondered how much control you actually have over your brain’s future? Dr. Jonathan Rosand, Co-founder of the Global Brain Care Coalition joins us to share the groundbreaking research showing that up to 45% of dementia, 75% of strokes, and 35% of depression can be prevented through everyday lifestyle choices, not complicated regimens, expensive treatments, or perfect genetics. Just simple, doable, human changes.
In this conversation, we unpack the Brain Care Score, neuroplasticity at every age, why social connection matters as much as blood pressure, and how to take back control of your long-term health starting today. No shame, no fear, no overwhelming lists, just clear, evidence-based hope that your daily actions really can stack the deck in your favor. We cannot wait for you to feel the relief and inspiration when you hear what Dr. Rosand is doing to tackle some of the most pressing challenges in brain disease.
