Loneliness is a modern key, I was an only child learn to play invented my own little world, now past 70 i can’t complain about loneliness even though after having raised 2 successful boys, worked 60 hours a week in health care, speaking and writing 4 languages, decided to leave the crowd and live in the mountains. Yes, eating a healthy diet and hiking. I like to listen to all this shows to be updated in what’s going on in the world.

Thanks so much for the interview. I'm so tired of how little citizens are cared for in this country. All these other countries <br>are banning these chemicals. It's disgusting here. If I was younger , I'd move out of this country

My diet is actually excellent. I don't eat snack foods, I don't eat a lot of meat, and I love all kinds of fruits and vegetables. I eat whole grains, nuts every day, and so on. I rarely drink alcohol and almost never eat processed meats. However, I do eat ice cream--way too much of it. And I sometimes eat sugar by other means, such as pancakes or baked goods. <br><br>A friend of mine had a cancer scare some years ago, and went cold turkey on sugar. He has eaten almost no sugar in eight or nine years. I don't have the will power to do this.

Great work Dr. Perlmutter. Sorry you had to see your father pass from this illness. He would be proud of you. Question, could you do anything about getting doctors in training the time to eat healthy food ?? We need to stop putting our doctors in training at risk for metabolic syndrome with the crappy cafeteria food. Perhaps Dr Rob Lustig could extend his eat real food campaign to hospitals.

I was prescribed acid blocking drugs for a misdiagnosed case of ulcers (it was actually gallbladder issue). I took the drugs almost daily for 15-20 years. Had my gallbladder removed when I was 59. Had no more acidity or pain problem since. Was diagnosed with Parkinson's when I was 67. Have no history of PD in my family. I am 71 now and living with this terrible disease.

I will be 78 in about 2 months.. I agree with everything except the plant diet… I was vegetarian for over 35 years.. my energy was so low… mid 2024 I studied a meat diet… I switched to a meat diet and my energy so much better… I exercise every day…

I’m a professional video editor and thumbnail designer. Loved Dr. David Perlmutter’s masterclass on the mindbodygreen podcast on brain health and neurodegeneration—especially the "smoke vs. fire" distinction exposing why amyloid-targeting drugs fail while underlying neuroinflammation continues, explaining how microglial polarization shifts from supportive M2 protectors to destructive M1 "evil twins" via glycolysis, and linking everyday metabolic health (like fasting insulin, waist circumference, and sub-5.8 HbA1c) directly to long-term cognitive protection. I actually created a custom-made thumbnail specifically for your video to help it stand out and get more clicks. What would be the best or easiest way to send it over to you for review?
