Max Lugavere

What's going on, everybody? Welcome back to The Genius Life.

I'm your host, Max Lugavere.

My guest today is Alison Aubrey.

She's a longtime NPR health and science correspondent and the author of the brand new book out just last week, Your Turn, How to Create a Midlife You Love.

Well, it's, uh, we're, we're not, [sighs] we're not really pro or con artificial sweeteners, but, but the con part is not for the reasons that people think.

You know what prompted this for me was I saw Max Lugavere did a post.

Our good friend Max Lugavere, who I, I love so much.

He's got tons of integrity.

Mm-hmm.

Welcome back, everyone.

Today, we're diving into an incredible episode of Genius Life, where Max Lugavere sits down with Dr.

Will Cole.

This conversation goes deep into brain fog, fatigue, and what it actually means to heal at the cellular level.

That's the audience.

So if I'm on, say, Mark Hyman's podcast or I'm thinking of Max Lugavere's and they sat there and promote me over to theirs, then boom, like, you know, that that Shawn Stevenson, I'm thinking of the people who I've been on their show.

They've been on my show.

We cross promote and the rising tide lifts all boats.

Hmm

... you know, like, I was, I was just, uh, talking to Max Lugavere, and he was talking about how like for Alzheimer's, like your genetics loads the gun, but your lifestyle would pull the trigger.

Pull the trigger, yeah.

Right? And so we all have these things, you know, in our physiology and in, in our bodies, but it's like, you know, cognitive reserve is, is huge.

When sensitivity meets modern life, the result can feel overwhelming or deeply human.

Today, we're diving into Max Lugavere's conversation with Sasha Hamdani, the ADHD expert and author of Too Sensitive.

It's all about what it means to feel things quickly, deeply, and for a long time.

And Hamdani makes such a compelling point right from the start.

So it was, it was a longitudinal study on aging and Alzheimer's disease.

By the way, I sent it to Max Lugavere.

He wasn't familiar with it.

I'm like, "Dude, you gotta check this out."

What's-

Well, this one right here tripped me out.

This is why I sent it to Max Lugavere, okay? "Some sisters stayed mentally sharp into extreme old age even though their brains were full of the plaques and tangles that define Alzheimer's."

Oh, interesting.

Fullman.

Genius.

The Genius Life.

What's going on everybody? Welcome back to The Genius Life.

That's, that's, that's what I, I came up with.

I, we just have to get to-- There was just this guy on social media who just made this post this week, which is going viral about, like, he named every health icon, which would be, like, an Andrew Huberman and a Mark Hyman and a Max Lugavere and a Peter Attia.

Peter Attia's obviously lost a few, but he, he, uh, s- their sponsorships.

He named their sponsorships or their affiliations.
