Brain aging does not start when memory loss shows up. It starts around age 25, decades before anyone notices anything is different. By the time a symptom appears, the window for the highest-leverage prevention has usually already closed. Today I'm talking with Dr. Christin Glorioso, an MD and PhD who has spent her career studying Alzheimer's, partly because of her own family history and partly because she carries the ApoE4 gene herself. She has since used her own brain scans, blood work, and lifestyle changes to lower her own brain age, and she's built a company around helping other people do the same. This conversation covers what actually causes Alzheimer's versus what we got wrong for decades, why the brain can grow back the same way muscle does, and why a ten minute daily habit has better evidence behind it than any drug currently on the market. We also get into hormone therapy, cholesterol, the ketogenic diet, and why women are so consistently underserved on all three.
