We often talk about nutrition, sleep, and stress, and rightfully so. Physical fitness, though, deserves just as much attention when it comes to protecting the brain. Cardiorespiratory fitness isn't just about heart health. It plays a critical role in regulating glucose, improving insulin function, and ultimately reducing risk for cognitive decline. Exercise is a non-negotiable part of brain preservation and the science keeps pointing us back to it. | David Perlmutter, M.D.

Today’s Empowering Neurologist interview is with Lisa Mosconi, PhD. She is the associate director of the Alzheimer’s Prevention Clinic at Weil Cornell Medical College in New York. I think will really enjoy this interview and learn about her new book, Brain Food (https://amzn.to/2WblOLo), which not only looks at nutrition but also leverages the science of nutritional genomics, and even the emerging science relating to the role of the microbiome in brain health.

You’ve heard that exercise supports your brain health, and that’s true. However, new research shows it’s not the full story, and I want you to have all the facts. A study from the University of Rochester found that even people who exercise regularly still face increased Alzheimer’s risk if they spend too much of their day sitting. This risk is even more significant for those who carry the APOE4 gene variant. The takeaway I have for you is this: Movement throughout your day matters. You don’t nee

We know the gut-brain connection is important, but your oral health is proving to be just as critical. Research shows that periodontal disease (gum disease) increases Alzheimer’s risk by triggering inflammation that activates brain immune cells called microglial cells. Simple steps like brushing twice a day, flossing, and maintaining overall oral health can help protect your brain. I cover this and more in my upcoming book, Brain Defenders — stay tuned! | David Perlmutter, M.D.

I often get asked about antidepressants and their impact on brain health. Some studies suggest that certain commonly prescribed medications may increase the risk of dementia. For older adults, especially those at higher risk for Alzheimer’s due to age, sex, metabolic conditions, or family history, I encourage you to be aware of this research and discuss any concerns with your healthcare provider. I wrote about this topic on a recent blog post — read it here: https://drperlmutter.com/antidepressa

There’s a strong connection between high levels of inflammation and ANY chronic degenerative condition, including degenerative conditions of the brain such as Alzheimer’s. That’s why it’s important that we do everything we can to keep inflammation in check. That means keeping blood sugar low and keeping our gut lining intact — key players in reining in inflammation. | David Perlmutter, M.D.

Could too much sitting around be threatening your brain health? If you spend most of your day sitting, I want to remind you that change doesn’t have to be big to be meaningful. Movement isn’t just for your body, it’s nourishment for your brain. When you move, you’re creating chemistry that supports clarity, mood, and long-term brain health. I encourage you to make a small shift in your movement pattern today. It can make a lasting difference in how you think and feel tomorrow. | David Perlmutter
