Kimberly Parker+FollowTwo Simple Habits Could Delay Alzheimer’s??? 🤯A new study says nearly half of dementia risk comes from things we can actually change and the two biggest are Walking and eating right. Sounds easy enough, but it turns out the details matter a lot. Walking around 7,000 to 8,000 steps a day, at a pace where you can talk but not sing, seems to be the sweet spot for brain health. The study even found walking can boost brain-boosting proteins by 11 percent. Pair that with foods like fatty fish, leafy greens, nuts and berries, and you give your brain a better shot at staying sharp for longer. I'm feeling old these days... I'm just gonna give it a try no matter what #BrainHealth #AlzheimersPrevention #HealthyHabits #WalkingBenefits #MindDiet #Longevity #Health 71Share
qmorrison+Followwhat i learned about fighting alzheimer's riskAs an APOE4 carrier who lost my mom to Alzheimer's, I've spent 8 years researching prevention with my geneticist husband. While sauna, diet, social life, and brain challenges help, nothing compares to regular exercise. My non-negotiables: 3-5 miles of daily walking, strength training 5-6 days weekly, and HIIT twice a week. For APOE4 carriers like me, movement isn't optional—it's survival. Anyone else implementing movement for brain health? #AlzheimersAwareness #ExerciseIsMedicine #BrainHealth #GeneticRisk #PreventionStrategies422Share
Edward Parrish+FollowThat Friday Night Burger? Your Brain Feels ItEver thought your greasy Friday night takeaway was harmless? Scientists just found that even one high-fat meal (think milkshake loaded with cream) can mess with blood flow to your brain within hours. That means your brain’s ability to handle blood pressure swings drops, especially if you’re older. Over time, this could up your risk for stroke or dementia. Maybe swap that pizza for some walnuts next time? Food for thought! #Health #BodyHealth #BrainHealth20Share
Timothy Mitchell+FollowGreen Tea + B3: Brain’s New Power Duo?Turns out your daily green tea and a vitamin B3 supplement could be a game-changer for brain health! Scientists found that a green tea compound and nicotinamide (a form of B3) work together to boost the brain’s energy and help clear out the gunk linked to Alzheimer’s. Both are safe, easy to get, and might help keep your mind sharp as you age. Early days, but this combo could be the next big thing for brain health! #Health #Diet #BrainHealth280Share

Michelle Welch+FollowMediterranean Diet Slashes Dementia Risk!Did you know eating like you’re on a Mediterranean vacation could seriously cut your risk of dementia—even if you’ve got the genes working against you? A new study tracked people for 34 years and found that those with two copies of the APOE4 gene (aka high risk for Alzheimer’s) who stuck to a Mediterranean diet lowered their dementia risk by 35%! More veggies, fish, olive oil, and nuts = major brain benefits. Who’s up for a Greek salad? #Health #BodyHealth #BrainHealth170Share
Aaron Rodriguez+FollowBrain Doc’s Daily Mantra & Must-Have SupplementDid you know a top Alzheimer’s researcher swears by just one daily supplement and a simple mantra for keeping your brain sharp? Dr. Rudolph Tanzi says omega-3s are his go-to for brain health, but nothing beats good habits. His SHIELD mantra: Sleep well, Handle stress, Interact, Exercise, Learn, and eat a healthy Diet. He’s big on vegan omega-3s (from algae!) and warns to pick your fish oil carefully—some brands aren’t clean. Basically, brain health = habits + a little supplement boost! #Health #BodyHealth #BrainHealth150Share
Joseph Bradley+FollowThis Tiny Device Slashes Dementia RiskWild stat: If you start using a hearing aid before 70, you could cut your risk of dementia by 61%! Researchers tracked thousands of adults and found that hearing aids are a total game-changer for brain health—if you don’t wait too long. But after 70, the benefit basically disappears. With dementia rates set to double, maybe it’s time to check your hearing? OTC hearing aids are now easier to get than ever. Who knew your ears could help save your brain? #Health #BodyHealth #BrainHealth381Share
Jonathan Parks+FollowSitting Cross-Legged Could Be Hurting Your Brain” Most of us sit cross-legged without thinking. But new research suggests this innocent habit may actually reduce blood flow to your brain. When you cross your legs, you compress major blood vessels in your thighs. This raises blood pressure and can even lead to nerve compression. Scientists in Korea found that sitting like this for long periods decreased oxygen delivery to the brain. That’s why you might feel lightheaded or mentally “foggy” after. I tried breaking the habit—using a footrest instead of crossing my legs. Within weeks, my posture improved, back pain lessened, and my afternoon headaches were gone. It sounds small, but how you sit can literally affect how your brain functions. Next time you catch yourself crossing your legs, remember: your brain might thank you if you stop. #BodyHacks #BrainHealth #PostureMatters 00Share
Lisa Ramirez+FollowGreen Tea Might Help Fight Alzheimer’s?!Scientists just found that two natural compounds—one from green tea and another from vitamin B3—could help reverse aging in brain cells and clear out the gunk linked to Alzheimer’s. The best part? These are already available as dietary supplements! Early research shows they boost energy in brain cells and help them clean up harmful proteins. More studies are needed, but this could be a game-changer for brain health. Who knew your daily cup of green tea might be doing more than you thought? #Health #BodyHealth #BrainHealth782Share
