    Here are some of my key takeaways;
    1-Stay Social (Spend time with family and friends)
    2-Exercise Regularly (this one is the most important one. Move your body daily with activities you enjoy)
    3-Cold Showers (give yourself an adrenaline boost and potentially improve your overall well-being)
    4-Practice Mindfulness (Meditate, do yoga, or practice deep breathing)
    5-Keep Learning (Read, or learn new skills, keep your mind active, engage in Cognitive Activities)
    6-Eat Well (Mediterranean Diet is healthy, Eat fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats like Olive oil)
    7-Sleep Enough (Aim for 7-9 hours of good sleep every night, clears out toxins and garbage stuff in the brain)
    Edit : Hey folks, I know some of you might think you've heard this all before, but I highly recommend watching the whole video. Dr. Wendy offers great research, examples, and insights into why we should follow these health tips. For instance, we all know smoking is bad, but understanding the reasons behind it can make a big difference. When you learn why certain habits are beneficial and see the evidence, it helps you follow this advice more consciously. I hope my takeaways from the video provide you with useful insights, but I 'STRONGLY' suggest watching the entire video to fully understand the importance and depth of her insights on brain health and how to keep it healthy through proper diet, exercise, and sleep. Stay healthy! 💜

      Friendly tip! Combine that with mindfulness, radical acceptance, and meditation; you have yourself a complete formula! The mind/body connection is equally as important regardless of which stage of development we are in. Glad you hear you found a winning formula, once you get those feet moving, and in the right direction, it gets easier/normalized. Keep at it.

    At 81 yrs old, I’ve exercised 3-6 times a wk for near 45 yrs. It helped me to stop smoking, control anxiety + arthritis pain & sleep well. In 1979 I began jogging & quit tobacco, a nasty habit. After 8 yrs, I then played tennis for 7 more yrs, until I started having early signs of lower back problems. After tennis, I began regular gym visits for aerobic & strength fitness. I now hold regular classes in science & Chess playing at a local senior center. My memory has declined some, but I still feel sharp; like to make others laugh & I live pain-free 90% of the time. I worry at times, but this is a most enjoyable time in my life. Exercise is an essential contributor.

      There's a lot of data left to chance in her studies ( and most ) It may be true that a wide amount of data indicates something...but cause and effect is more complex. To your case......my mother lived to 97 but never exercised at all or played any kind of sports...ever . She did however come from a long family line where the youngest died at 94. Is it the exercise ?......or is it the happiness ? There was a famous 80 year study that concluded "happy healthy people live longer "....but it's reasoning is flawed......it could also have concluded that sick people tend to be unhappy....and sick people live shorter lives. The happiness may not have been a causal factor but a side effect of not being sick .

      After one such walk, RIGHT in front of my entrance door, I get an epileptic seisure (I'm epileptic since 1994). But I haven't had a seizure for long long time, the drug works well.
      All this having in mind to walk the Camino de Santiago, luckily in aug. 2026, so plenty of testing till then.

    I took care of my mother (Alzheimers) for 12 years. Almost killed me. When she passed at age 88, I had everything go wrong with my body. From the stress and no exercise. At almost age 67 I have been going to the gym now 4x a week. It has changed everything. Everything. I have a very sore heel so I cant do Zumba but I do weights and rowing. Free weights are the fastest way (for me) to look better. That and diet. I am hooked. All of my health problems are slowly fading away. At one point I was seeing 4-5 specialists a month. Right now I am only seeing my primary.

      So sorry you had to suffer like this. So your story is very similar to my experience. December 2022, my Mom passed away from dimentia and other causes. She was diagnosed in the August. But I was doing the running around, sitting at the hospital when she had seizures, seeing to her needs, working, running my household, and 3 children at school. When she died my nervous system took a huge knock. Im still trying to recover. My thumbs locked, and I couldn't move them, I had numb fingers and still experience this now but slowly recovering. I suffer from major anxiety. I am taking the vitamin B, omega and lions mane. Recovery has been the slowest process. I do weights which I love , but have to keep it low kg as I developed an issue with my wrist, did xrays and Doctor claims its inflammation but it looks like a bone growth. So I now have a bicycle. My goal is to get my body and in perfect condition. And now I know I have to get my brain in even better condition Appreciate the podcast. ❤

      ​​@@Cynthia-ir3zk There is only one god: Allah . The one who created us and gives us food water and oxygen. He sent us messengers (prophets) to guide us to the true path which is worshiping only Allah. (praying to him / fasting ...) which is Islam.
      And Jesus PBUH is one of his Messengers to people and the last prophet and messenger is Muhammad PBUH whom we should follow.
      Jesus PBUH is not a god nor the child of god, he's a human being and a worshiper and messenger of Allah. Allah(the true god) doesn't need anyone . He's strong and can do anything just by himself. He created paradise to reward the prople who follow the prophets and messengers . And hell is gonna be a punishment to those who didn't follow the messengers.

      ​@@aichabaajine8264Jesus Is God. The Quran was written 600 years after Jesus and 600 miles away. Islam may have been inspired by biblical scripture, at best, yet it holds no truth.
      The Quran even admits that no sign or miracle had been given to confirm Muhammad’s message. Sura (Quran verse) 13:7. Yet the Bible is full of signs and miracles proving the Messiah is God made into man (Jesus).
      Islam's allah tells Muslims to write a better book if they don't trust the quoran, yet the better book existed 600 years before the Quoran was even written, it is the Bible.
      Jesus Himself stated he is God, and he performed many miracles.
      John 8:58, John 10:30, John 5:17-18 all cite that He is One with the Father.
      He has the authority to judge the nations (Matthew 25:31-46). He claims the authority to raise people from the dead (John 5:25-29) and to forgive sins (Mark 2:5-7)-things only God can do (1 Samuel 2:6; Isaiah 43:25).
      The New Testament equates Jesus to the creator of the universe (John 1:3), and in John 16:15, He says, “All that belongs to the Father is mine.”
      You can only reach the Father through Jesus Christ (John 14:6) Anyone who denies Jesus Christ as our Lord will perish in hell, but those who accept Him will have an everlasting life throughout all time

      ​@Zeldafan1ify, a man can never be God. Even jesus believed in 1 God, but Christians believe in 3? The son, God himself, and the holy spirit. That's just not right. God doesn't need a partner nor a son, he's not a human like us. Also Christians have started worshipping idols now, so you can't even call yourselves Christians. That's not what Jesus preached either nor did he worship idols. Jesus himself said in the ORIGINAL Bible that a man named Ahmed will come after me and complete my religion. Amen was Muhammad's name too. But the Bible most people follow nowadays was changed and rewritten many times throughout history by the popes the church for their own agenda. So it can't even be trusted anymore. The fastest growing religion in the world is Islam and Christians are the largest group of people converting to it. You should try to read the Quran too.

      @@JawariaShahzad-g2t Jesus' identity isn't based solely on what He says, but on what He does. And He has left a lot of irrefutable evidence that He is God.
      That evidence includes fulfilled prophecy and recorded miracles in which Jesus reversed the laws of nature. He also lived a sinless life (Hebrews 4:15), something no one else has done. And Jesus was the only perfect man, no other human being has ever matched tbe perfection of Jesus Christ, that is why He is God. The trinity (Father, Son, Holy Spirit) represent a single God. Christians worship ONE God, not three.
      God doesn't need anyone else that's why He sent HIMSELF as His Son. He IS The Father, The Son, and Holy Spirit.
      And by the way, just as not every Muslim follows their quoran, not every Christian worships idols. You cannot possibly generalize every single Christian by claiming that we worship idols. TRUE Christians do not. You are thinking about Catholics, who have worshipped idols for centuries and are not true Christians.
      Also there is no "original bible" that mentions "Ahmed", Jesus only mentions an advocate called The Spirit Of Truth, will be with the believer, that is the Spirit that dwells in a person who follows Christ truthfully and does not deny Him:
      "And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Advocate, to be with you forever. This is the Spirit of Truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees him nor knows him. You know him, because he abides with you, and he will be in you." John 14:16-7 Which is literally the Holy Spirit.
      The Bible is translated word-for-word by the dead sea scrolls and ancient Biblical texts that pre-date your claims. There is no evidence of revisions or tampering aside from a few spelling variations as a result of translation, and inconsequential dictions.
      Actually you should fact check your sources. For every 70,000 Christians who convert to Islam, 2.7 million Muslims convert to Christianity every year. And Muslim countries tend to count Christians as Muslim in their statistics, so even the demographics are wrong in many Muslim countries. Jesus is Coming soon and it is evident in the mass conversions to Christianity that is happening everywhere, especially in Islamic countries!
      The quoran is Biblical fanfiction, and I prefer to spend my time reading the truth. Did you not say that it isn't right for there to be multiple gods, that God only needs Himself? Then why do Muslims pray and beat themselves to near-death for their ancestors to forgive them? Why should ancestors do the work of God?
      Jesus is a God of Love, and He is the same God that was called Yahweh, He already sacrificed himself on the cross for our sins, I implore you to pray to Him instead, so that you will experience the real love that can only come from a real, loving God.

      Dementia sucks! It's so sad how debilitating mental illness is.
      As a caregiver, you want them to "try harder" but they simply can't. It's like asking a computer with a glitch or bug to try harder. The brain just can't process better than it is doing, making it more and more difficult for the sufferer to try to mitigate the symptoms.
      For example, you try to encourage someone with dementia to change their diet, to get more intense exercise, and to pick up new interests to learn about (especially those that involve physical coordination as well as retaining new information.) But then they can't understand what you just told them or they forget it. You encourage them to develop systems and routines to help them. They can't remember to do that or what their new routine is.
      It's very frustrating. As a caregiver, it's tough not to just give up.
      Good luck to you and your mom and to everyone else going through this as a sufferer or caregiver (who suffers the disease as well, but in different ways.)

I got angry and stressful in the office and home. Then in a health examination my blood pressure was diagnosed as pre-hypertension, doctor told me to meet a specialist for medications, but the nurse, which is a friend of mine, recommended exercise. So I started moderate (Zone 2) exersice everyday for a year now. And amazingly not only my blood preasure went down but also I feel happy and relax everyday, my brain solves problem more efectively.

      100%. I have seen extremely similar results with clients over the years in regards to the power of the nervous system. Learning how to regulate your nervous system can have incredibly positive results. Beautiful story. Exercise absolutely can greatly improve nervous system state, as long as it can be done without pain/dysfunction. This is only possible if you have strong activation/connectivity to muscular systems on a neuro level. For example, if you try to flex your bicep... do you feel the bicep? Or do you feel the shoulder? This is the problem. The brain does not have default connectivity to our physical systems like we would assume. This is also why exercises that PT's give that should work to strengthen imbalances, don't always work. The brain does not always have the ability to reconnect to weak/disconnected systems without powerful direct input to the nervous system directly.

      My guess is that walking is the best exercise overall and can only help you slow or prevent dementia. However, I also have a feeling that more intense exercise once or twice a week may be equally or even more beneficial to your brain than just regular walking. You may not be able to sprint anymore, but is there something else you could do that would raise your heart rate more and thus circulate blood even more? Maybe squats or shoulder press exercises or lap swimming? Or dance?

Before we knew of their diagnoses, they were escape artists, wandering miles from home to complete what was in their minds, important errands. In reality, their missions had no real importance. They would walk at distances and paces almost unbelievable for their ages. This was a common occurrence with one of them even after she went into assisted living. Yet, they both continued to decline until neither of them could walk at all or feed themselves.

      I already heard from other scientists (don’t remember names now)…that our guts are the second organ after the brain.. the most important part of our nervous system. They are not connected, but they communicate throughout our microbes. Our good microbes in the guts are crucial for our health and decides our fate. Bad microbes are responsible for our health and mental illness that includes dementia.They made experiment in 2013..? when they sterilised mouse guts . Mouse with Parkinson’s disease and that mouse was cured from this disease. There was a woman who had beginning first set of Alzheimer and they changed her microbes as well. They transplanted (poop)… from a healthy person into her guts. She got much better very quickly. So it looks like what we eat…. is our life style:))

      I consider myself to have a very good memory. I remember a lot of things that happened 15-20 years ago, especially conversations with people. I recently got a math tutoring job (having had jobs in other fields before), and everything I teach is from what I learned 15 years ago as a student. This is how I applied association in my life: I always liked numbers, and when my parents would ask me to buy things from the store (pre-mobile phone era), I would remember the number of items and what my mom wanted to cook. This is how I memorized the items, so practice is very important to improve your memory. Nowadays, we rely so much on our phones that we don't need to memorize phone numbers, street names, or important dates because everything is saved in our phones. My advice is to use either novelty (the excitement of learning something new) or association for anything that seems difficult to memorize. If neither works, then repeat it until you know it. My son likes to enter the computer password every time he turns on the laptop, so I decided to change the password to my husband's phone number because knowing your parents' phone numbers is a safety measure for any child 😊

    Unfathomable grief.
    I never could have understood the depths to which I could experience emotion like the grief I felt when my healthy, loving, adventurous adult son died unexpectedly a little over a year and a half ago. At the time, the only way I could describe it was like floating alone out in a vast ocean where I knew not the depth, the size, when the storms would rage, what monsters lurked below, or if I would ever stumble to shore again.
    Mr. Bartlett asks Dr. Suzuki if she would have taken a pill to dull the sense of grief. In the aftermath of my son dying, I talked to other grieving parents who turned to alcohol, medication, etc. - anything to give their minds a break from the incredible torment of having to face a future where your child is physically gone.
    But for me, I consciously chose to avoid all that and feel every bit of the pain of the experience. I laid out in a field and wept into the dirt. I roamed the woods. I sobbed in the shower.
    Thankfully, in the years prior to his death, I was on a bit of a spiritual journey and had found my way to mindfulness. There were points during my grief where part of me could step back during those wailing and keening episodes and see myself - this human being in such deep sadness and confusion, desperately trying to figure out how to move forward - and I could feel compassion and love for her. And it dawned on me that even in this unimaginable torment, there is a certain beauty to the human experience. I don't know if that would have come to me had I been trying to take the edge off of my pain with medication or alcohol.
    Those kinds of days still come but mercifully not as often. That vast ocean I was lost in has permeated my being. Part of that grief water is in me, and I will carry it for the rest of my time here. But at least I feel like I've found some footing. And that compassion I found for myself has opened me up to a much deeper level of compassion for others that is on an entirely other plane of understanding our connectedness. Pain and suffering are universal things of the human condition that bind us together. And when you truly come to understand that, we'll it's like in the poem "Kindness" by Naomi Shihab Nye..."Then it is only kindness that makes sense anymore."

Thats why you see the threat as real bcoz it is real in a hypothetical scenario it could happen ..and what would you do then its what the mind is thinking...bcoz your life is too secure and so it focuses on the high risk scenarios ..bcoz it can afford it ..what else would it think when everything else is good? It just obsesses on the unsolved potential future danger.i was always conscious the danger is not now but what bugged me was the fact it can potentially happen...and since it can because it already has happennee once then why can't I find a solution.

    Another excellent video. I am quite an extreme introvert and now in my 60s but spent decades trying to fit in with what society expected and used to worry that I would suffer emotionally because I did not have friends. I became anxious and slightly depressed so saw an excellent therapist who said that I was anxious and depressed because I was going against my innate nature and I should embrace, appreciate and start loving my ability to be blissfully happy when alone. It changed my life. I had always preferred my own company from a very young age; hated parties and family gatherings but continually tried to fit in. I now know it was damaging to do that. I have a couple of friends and quite a few acquaintances but always, without exception, feel happier, more relaxed and only truly myself when alone. I feel sorry for folk who are listening to this who are worrying that they may get dementia because they are lonely. when they could be happy embracing their solitude, not loneliness. Please remember that we are all different and not everyone will benefit from having friends and more importantly, they will not suffer because they are alone. I would love Dr Wendy Suzuki's opinion on this subject.

      There is a lot that can be said about love and loneliness. I do firmly believe that this is completely individual. Depending on heredity and upbringing etc. I had a great childhood, in a small village. There were few kids in my age there. The world was small in people, but big in freedom and nature. Then in school you naturally end up in larger and larger schools and classes. I never liked it. I always felt consumed by the constant social play and that led me to seek peace, freedom, solitude.
      Unfortunately there is a huge stigma in our society about this. We are constantly taught that "loneliness" is unhealthy, that you in fact should feel miserable and depressed if you are not a social person, if you don't have close friends, don't have a relationship. This causes people to feel a lot worse than they have to. Personally i almost never feel "lonely" although i'm almost always alone in my free time. The times that i do feel "lonely" is when it becomes impossible to disregard the stigmatisation, usually around the holidays. Not because of solitude, but because of the stigma.
      I'm 50 years old now. I have had periods of more friends and a long relationship. But i know my true nature. That is freedom.

      You can train and improve your motor skills. I played football for some years but was lacking in motor skills. Then I practised Taekwondo for 3 years and it improved my skills and balance a lot. Returning to football I felt remarkable improvement.
      Also it has been proved that climbing and crawling on floors improve motor skills, which share part of the brain for functions of reading and comprehending. Children who walk to fast from birth sometimes also need to practise climbing and crawling to improve that part of the brain, which again improves their academic skills in School.

      Yea new studies emphasize the importance of crawling while a baby for developing a particular old, brainstem region part of the brain. This who didnt get to crawl have a variety of issues later, including focus trouble. I dont know where the cerebellum is vs the hypocampus, but the hypo campus can grow (or shrink) in response to behavior &emotional thoughts. Not sure what if any other parts of brain can, too.

I imagine that attaining The Knowledge is extra super satisfying. When someone gives you an address and you immediately know the cross streets and best routes to get there (considering time of day and special event traffic for concerts, sporting events, etc.) you feel amazing!

    I've never watched any DOAC podcasts nor have I ever heard of Dr. Suzuki, but this was on autoplay after finishing another video but not pausing/stopping YT quickly enough. It took all of about those first 3 minutes of half-listening to draw my full and entire attention to this incredibly intelligent and insightful woman who was just radiating joy. The last part of the interview made me shed tears. I know unfathomable grief and I also know the wisdom that comes from enduring it. I too have come full circle to Christianity, and her answer about compassion being the most valuable trait of humanity was the perfect closer for this interview. I intend to replay her profound words about how and why to grow my brain every day and will use this as my fuel for digging deep and exercising, even though I equally know both how powerful it is for life & healthspan as well as loathe doing it. It's up to me. What a gift this interview was.

      so walking is not an exercise? What your body needs is any kind of consistent body movement. Also if you looked back at the kind of life your aunt lived as a child, you will realize they did not need exercise. So many things were not automated 100 years ago, people actively moved their bodies, even when doing home chores so there was no need to go to make shift body moving spaces call gyms like we do today. If she is 100 years then she must have been born in a time where there was barely any cars and no delivery guys to deliver everything to them at door steps. Our daily lives today are extremely sedentary! You can choose to spend the whole day in the house watching TV and the food will come to your door step!

    WHAT IS THIS. This lady is amazing, so intellectual,so gentle, so compassionate. In love with her full of passion speech. This video is such a source of eye-opening video for me. I lost my dad in 2021, due to cardiac arrest. It was so heartbreaking, heart wrenching event of my whole life and I know no matter what I face, that challenge, that grief is nothing in comparison to it. The way I loved him, the way he loved me, our love, our joy, everything vanished just in a few minutes. My biggest fear was to lose him and yet here I am without him. she is so right, when she says, once you grow through, you know how to be compassionate for others and show empathy to them. also so right, when she said , A human's greatest quality is being compassionate. though, that event has made me wiser, maybe a little stronger or maybe even weaker because of that trauma, yet it made me realize that there some things in life that you have no control no matter what you do, no matter how much you try to achieve something, save you're loved someone. if it's the end \. IT IS THE END. LOVE HOW the podcaster was such a curious questioner, the fact that he was right that some people do not have the ability to love even though they have options, because the events in their life that made them be so. LIFE'S NOT FAIR. It's okay, maybe you will have a fair one nextlife. Till then, appreciate what you have. this scientist is just fabulous. Now, I HAVE to watch her TED show.

Had 7 living children, She stopped driving at 85.. at my insistence, but walked every day with her sister for miles after children were grown. .. walked, avid reader and active in community, bingo, playing different card games, cooking for groups, traveling. When she couldn't walk as well she sat, did word games. Puzzles..
    She had general memory problems but never forgot a grandchild, her family, and friends' names. Refused most drugs, except BPressure and cholesterol meds, though I forced that.. vaccines were stopped, no vitamins or even aspirin. She was an insomniac.. which she blamed us 7 kids! Doctors agreed that she knew more about staying alive than most of us would ever know. Loved garlic, mushrooms, olive oil, and real food. She was a sunworshipper..

    I totally agree with this sentence: 'Going for a 10-minute walk can decrease the anxiety.' When I feel anxious or overwhelmed, I automatically walk and it makes me calm and helps me come out of the mess. It's like I can't be anxious sitting; my body and brain automatically force me to stand up and walk. Most of the times, I don't even know when I got up and started walking, and when after a few minutes I feel sorted, I get to know that oh, I am walking.
    Walking and writing are the best therapy, then comes exercise, talking to friends, etc.
