Mindsip insights from this episode:
Fuel your brain with Mosh protein bar's powerful ingredients
The Mosh protein bar is specifically designed for brain health, containing ingredients like omega-3s, vitamin D, B12, Cognizin, Ashwagandha, and Lion's Mane.
Train for functional strength to enhance daily activities
Instead of general fitness, you can train for specific functional goals, like being strong enough to lift your suitcase into an airplane's overhead compartment.
Address nutrient deficiencies to prevent long-term health issues
Suboptimal nutrient levels, even if not causing immediate disease, can lead to "long latency deficiency diseases" like osteoporosis or dementia over many years.
Address hearing loss to reduce Alzheimer's risk
Hearing issues can lead to Alzheimer's more quickly because when you miss things, you tend to isolate yourself, and social isolation is a risk factor.
Challenge historical biases by including women in clinical trials
Historically, women were excluded from clinical trials because they were considered undependable subjects who were, quote, hysterical at certain times of the month.
Embrace a brain-healthy lifestyle for resilience
A brain-healthy lifestyle is a radical idea that goes beyond diet to include sleep prioritization, social engagement, and continuous learning to build brain resilience.
Identify what standard checkups often miss for better health insights
Standard annual physicals often miss key indicators like low-grade inflammation, autoimmunity, heavy metal levels, and metabolic health, which can be early warnings for chronic disease.
