It seems to me by the studies that the root cause of AD and most diseases are caused by mitochondrial dysfunction. Which can be reversed by a ketogenic diet, fasting, cold therapy and resistance training. Also by minimizing toxin/ endocrine disrupter exposure and consumption. There are also some great mitochondrial support supplements like Omega 3, Niacin, COQ10, L- carnitine and others.
There is something wrong on Apple podcast. I tried listening there and what I get is a different podcast show by some guy talking about goals. Checked several times, not me. Really weird.
Dr. Rhonda and Dr. Axel, this interview was one of the best I have ever heard about brain health. Dr. Rhonda, your team adding all the references, images etc is so appreciated and so helpful to better understand. Thank you both!

LOVE your channel! I've watched/skimmed 1000s of heath videos/ channels. Congrats! Yours is one of very best for your HONEST and INTELLIGENT interviews/ subject matter covered
This was a fantastic episode, Rhonda, thank you. Was hoping to hear more discussion about Covid 19, which is largely recognized now as a vascular disease, and the role of the spike protein, and its impact on the blood brain barrier, endothelial cells, etc.
Excellent podcast. Thank you very much to Rhonda and Axel for presenting the science so well. Every bit of hope for future treatments is desperately important for people like myself, full time caring for parents with dementia in our 50s and knowing we have some of the risk factors that our healthy lifestyles cannot remove.
Great bloody podcast! I can't believe ive watched every single one of your JRE podcast but never even knew you had one of your own. Every time JRE podcast ended I was left wanting more, so excited to binge all these episodes, thanks for your content Rhonda! You and Andrew are the best!
Great discussion, thanks for bringing Axel on. I wonder what he or Rhonda would suggest as a diet/exercise/supplement/drug regimen in suspected CTE cases?
I would think it would be along the lines of eating whole natural foods that are anti-inflammatory, lifting weights, three times a week and getting your 150 minutes of cardiovascular exercise in a week
Could you look into the topic around Bacillus Subtilis? It is theorized that it may improve cell and barrier protection in gut and maybe even in the brain by some sort of biofilm and may protect against neuro degeneration.
@@niviensaleh9688I learned to tolerate the ‘acquired taste’ of Natto for its possible benefit to CVD, and most things that are good to the heart and blood vessels are generally also good for the brain. I’d recommend consuming Natto instead of just taking Nattokinase as a supplement. The whole food form provides the same benefits as consuming soy, with the added benefits of many postbiotics not just the single form in Nattokinase.
Good for you, but Get Out! If your HIIT session is up to snuff - how is it that you can fully 'listen' and take this content in while in a HIIT session ?... without your brain and all your attention and energy being focused on where your next breath might be coming from?!🤯😅 Hope you were kidding! If not...then I suggest you revisit what a REAL HIIT session is all about 😆
Thank you for posting your experience. I’ve been researching Dr. Bredesen’s protocol for my father as well, and he has both APOE per 23andme. I was thinking about signing him up for RECODE, and wasn’t sure. Now I’m going to sign him up. I’ve been following Dr. Patrick for years also, so was excited to see this interview.
@@Jessica-kk1cz That is great to hear! The protocol is effective, but it is not easy. For many people, the diet and exercise are the hardest parts. Commitment and consistency are key. Your father is lucky to have such a caring daughter. Good luck and God bless you both.
Very interesting info about fibrinogen, APOE4 carriers, maintaining vasculature and other amazing tidbits on the "bleeding edge" of research. Thank you, Rhonda and Axel! Now if I could just find out how to get some of these biomarkers tested.
I hope we'll see sPDGFRβ in the wider world, soon. That's the one that signals that pericyte damage is occurring and it's good news that it's already being trialed in hundreds of people (soon thousands, according to Axel). Thank you for watching, Debra!
Amazing discussion, thank you. Axel made the same point I was shouting at my device about! The devil is in the detail and we have to think of alcohol in its specific context. Nobody drinks ‘alcohol’ ...they drink ‘alcoholic drinks’ and could that not explain the sex difference in data between men & women and the effects of ‘alcohol’? There’s no denying that on average women are less likely to drink pints of beer, and more likely to drink wine, or spirits & mixer, even if we keep the alcohol quantities comparable. Axel saved the day by reminding us that the French, par exemple, drink moderate amounts of red wine often, which contains (?) protective compounds. However, Rhonda, you quickly countered that daily drinking should be discouraged. But what about the Sardinian centenarians who drink a couple of small glasses of their local organic wine DAILY, and never seem to develop any chronic, vascular or degenerative illnesses whatsoever (at least until they’re over 100!). Although personally I choose to drink alcohol only at special celebrations, if I lived near a source of organic Cannonau red wine from locally grown grapes, things would be different! I really do feel enough distinction has not been made between the drinks nature themselves. As a 61 yr old meditating, non-smoking, regular exercising (cardio/resistance/boxing/yoga), sauna goer, intermittent faster (earlyTRE pattern) on a plant based diet with regular oily fish and a little meat now and then (40-50 plants per week), zero added sugar, constant brain stimulation from work & play, no increased genetic disease risks that I know of, a wonderful family, low stress and a safe home, I feel grateful and blessed, but for goodness sake, leave that moderate intake of organic red wine alone! Oh and I eat a square of 70% dark chocolate daily - please may I reserve my telegram from the King when I’m 100? Many thanks to both, you clever, clever scientists 🙏 🙏
Excellent presentation! I have read mostly sic lit for the toxicologic mechanisms of the co-morbidity of the metal lead Pb. I am increasingly concerned that it is not commonly incorporated into research related to brain micro-vasculature mechanisms. Understandably, research is necessarily oversimplification in order to try to make sense of the mechanisms, their additive and synergistic complications of pathogenicity. I would love to hear you two discuss any aspects of Pb toxic mechanisms in BBB involvement related to the complexity you have so well clarified here. Lead is said to cause per oxidation of lipids on contact, which seems important to consider for endothelial integrity in BBB. And, given our lead body burden accumulations (typically 100 to 1000 x's that in prehistoric bone), and mobilization of Pb when the body comes under stress of old age, illness, pregnancy) where the body seeks additional calcium (lead follows calcium through many physiologic pathways). Significant research has been done about brain lead adverse effects on many functions( eg. glutathione reductions of up to 60%, GABA reductions, per oxidation of membranes, astrocyte damage, etc.) seemingly very important to inclusion into more depth of discussion of existing research of brain lead as co-morbidity in BBB effects and more. Then, there is the spike protein damage brain vasculature effects initiating BBB perforation, and the nitric oxide importance in small vessel dilation of smooth muscle function for blood flow, and how so called 'ED of the brain' might have a wild possibility of some kind of alleviation of constrictive mechanisms via sildenafil use(?) on and on complexity... so grateful for your work!
And plenty of brain ‘exercise’, time with friends, family, community and a sense of purpose...oh and I find early Time Restricted Eating to be incredibly vitalising and energising
I wonder how similar blood brain barrier health is to skin health? Perhaps all of the supplements that help skin like collagen would also have a beneficial effect on the blood brain barrier membrane.
My grandfather and all his siblings died of Alzheimers and it was not hereditary (autopsy was done). However, they were all exposed to high levels of DDT in the 40's and 50's and DDT is a known risk factor. Unfortunately, that stuff is still in our food supply as it's still used in some parts of the world. Lots of different causes.
My father and most of his siblings are going through this. My dad is still alive but is end stage. 2 of his sisters have already passed wIth it. 2 others have and are not as far along in the process. One doesn't have it - I'm sure he's waiting his turn. Needless to say, the next generation of our family is worried.
@@JMSsssssss sorry to he hear about what your family is going through, it is really hard. Dreadful disease. My dad and all his siblings have been worried about getting it too. But they are all in their 70's and so far fine...So many were exposed to DDT years ago and are now elderly, I wonder how much of the Alzheimers today was possibly caused by that.
The bigger poison that your relatives were exposed to and that you yourself were exposed to its called sugar the resulting insulin rise and blood sugar rise causing you heard them say small vessel disease what's cluckin the small vessels.. plaque caused by excess of sugar we are our own worst enemy we poison ourselves
fyi..the body repairs itself and also does away with many toxins regardless of the exposure and time of it. Proper nutrition is what prevents it. it's important to take note that 200-300 years ago the European #Nordic #foodDeserts #reindeerherdsman we're still roaming the #articTundra and had no diseases. In #Mongolia and #Siberia the reindeer herdsman are still very active but have new wrapped manufactured foods such as sweet breads where now they get diabetes and high blood pressure and even cancer. So it is very important to take note that salt consumption has gone substantially down and that everyone is afraid of saturated animal fats and now stay away from organ meats. please understand that if you take a #statin, if you take an #anticoagulant any of these are devastating your #collagen stores in your body and your body is unable to rebuild it. #DrDaleBrenesen #DrDonaldLayman #metabolicMind #charlieFoundation what heals your brain heals your body but you must heal your body first. #carnivoreCure
Thank you for this interview. Fascinating information. Question please: Do you think warm climates , especially exercise during warm days, enhance cardiovascular benefits, similar to the effects of using a sauna?
My brain has been bashed more times than I can count, both accidentally and clinically. ER trips for dream reenactment behavior accidents and brain biopsy for CNS vasculitis. I can honestly say survived all this and have even experienced some reversal of so called incurable conditions. I'm saving this video for future reference. My brain is very precious to me.
@@buckw65 part of a scientist's job is to educate people so I hope she looks at it that way and also Rogan loves her at the very least it's a good place to be to disagree
Plus Rhonda gave him a run for his money and set him straight over the nonsense he was parroting re vaccines, so no...she’s not afraid to challenge anyone. Go Warrior Rhonda!
Exercise- do you need to achieve any particular level of heart rate and if so for how long? Repetitive throughout the exercise period or for longer periods, or?
Usually the intensity of exercise that it’s proven to help with cardiovascular disease is 30 min daily of brisk walk; the “ gauge” would be to walk fast enough to have difficulty talking fluently.
If vascular disease is the culprit then wouldn't a plant based diet, reduction in stress, in addition to exercise be a preventative measure from alzheimer’s/dementia?
I think that's reasonable. I've noticed a couple of the health channels I like seem to avoid tackling the plant-based vs. other diet options too directly in relation to health topics, such as this one about brain diseases. Possibly for fear that proponents of other non-plant based diets will take offense. So they've determined that it's just not worth the grief and loss of platform revenue to commit too strongly on that front. Instead they concentrate upon the exercise, sleep, stress minimization aspects, with only a lesser degree of exploration into the dietary components. Just my hunch anyway.
@The Monopoly Experiment Well, it's more a case of not really knowing...as in, scientific fact. And, no I'm not talking about epidemiological 'studies'. It's all hypothetical - the pb diet health benefits.
Amazing presentation! Thank you and would love a follow up that covers some preventative interventions and also would be very interested your views on the recent study showing an adverse interaction between Rapamycin and plaque development in mouse models.
So from the first part it sounds as though maintaining the integrity of the pericyte is key and one method is through stem cell therapy. I saw something recently that sai having 2 cups of hot cocao or cocoa a day will at least double your natural stem cell production. I love hot cocoa, worth a try .
Preventative jabs for various infectious diseases, such as hepatitis and HPV, contain large amount of sorbitol 80, an emulsifier also used in the treatment of brain cancer to increase permeability of BBB to allow chemotherapy to pass through. Those jabs also contain large amount of heavy metals such as AL and that go straight to the brain.
Ronda, Fabulous interview. Thank you. I have Alzheimer's on both sides of my family so I'm working it hard. My current thoughts on my Alzheimer's and Dementia prevention protocol... ... High dose of Omega 3 daily to get my Omega3 index as close to a dolphin as possible (I'm at 18% now) ... High intensity cardio several times a week (sprint spin classes) Zone 5 training driving Vo2Max up. ... Dry Sauna sessions frequently ... Lift weights and eat loads of protein to build muscle mass. ... Get great sleep targeting at least two hours of deep sleep each night. Anything else?
I wonder if because the blood brain barrier doesn't let fructose pass in and out of it, but artificial sweeteners can pass through and are converted into fructose (e.g., sorbitol), fructose gets trapped in the brain and causes problems related to AD?
Wha??? Oh my that is scary! Do you remember the source of that info? I’ve been using artificial sweeteners for quite a while and I’m just now starting to hear some bad things about them, so I’m curious to learn more.
@@RosieJ7223 hey! I don't on hand, but if you look at the enzymatic process for sucralose, you'll see it is converted directly into fructose. Also, respective searches for "does fructose cross bbb" and "does sucralose cross bbb" should have answer in top result.
See: Robert Lustig, on sweetness on receptors on the tongue signaling for storing everything as fat, even to the point of reducing metabolism levels to keep from burning fats.@@RosieJ7223
You always make exceptional YT’s .. thank you. So, until advanced therapies available …. Aerobic exercise, keep ldl cholesterol (and apoB) glucose, BP as low as possible, at least for small/micro vessel / vascular dementia?
What about Vitamin D3 supplementation ( prior vitamin D level check)? I know it’s important in PD, MS and other movement disorders( as well as depression, sleep quality).
I am curious how specialized pro-resolving mediators can play a role in reducing the loss or protection of pericytes. SPM function can decrease with age and poor nutrition so I am curious if this is seen in correlation with pericyte loss.
Air pollution in Mexico City has high levels of fine particulate of lead, and given that lead atoms are well known to turn lipids rancid on contact, this seems likely to be a mechanism of olfactory bulb membrane damage and entry into the CNS?
My Mom died of Vascular Dementia in the "80s. The term vascular was used back then so I am not too sure how new (or old) the identification of this type of dementia is.
Which of the symptoms. Such as damaged vessels, microbleeds whitematter, lacunes, spaces, and brain atrophy, etc. can be repaired, once already present, via exercise and or supplementation?
Watching this made me start researching the supplements of lysine, L-Citrulline, L-Arginine and the soy milk I drink, but I lack the background to figure it out but I can't help but think that an increase in nitric oxide might be helpful. Luckily I get tons of exercise, so much so I worry about stroke, that is how I started taking supplements that increase it. And thanks to Rhonda, I get lots of cold water fatty fish dishes.
N-Acetyl Glucosamine + Red Light + HDL cholesterol + Omega-3 + micro doses Aspirin and GLA compliment the Red Beet Extracts / time restricted eating and 24-72 hour Fasting to decrease Insulin Resistance - these are the Avenues
R-Lipoic and A-Lipoic acid reset the biochemical circadian rhythm, that is Synchronicity, in combination with Red Light Therapy and HDL cholesterol restore the endothelial cells fluid.
Axel calls out high heart rate, specifically. There's some evidence that the shearing forces of higher heart rates themselves promote BDNF in the brain. Furthermore, you're likely to see more lactate production from a HIIT style... I'm a fan! That being said, being active in whatever capacity is always going to be better than not being active and put you worlds ahead of being sedentary.
Did they give any protocol? Dr. Andy Galpin told Andrew Huberman to give MAX effort to MAX heart rate once/wk at least "just touch it" but preferably 4x/wk. He also gave a separate protocol of a weekly HARD effort that can only be sustained from 4-8 minutes once/wk, preferably 4x/wk. Did Dr. Patrick/Montagne give a protocol recommendation of their own?
@ MR8RAVES - That's totally out of context. (Of this subject) Huberman and Galpin are discussing overall health benefits in the context of exercise for strength and hypertrophy. Different context than the subject of exercise & BBB, alzheimers, and benefitting blood vessels in the brain, as discussed here. You'd get closer to this subject about how to apply exercise for cardiovascular health & brain health, by tuning in to Huberman's most recent interview of Dr. Peter Attias. (This past week, I believe ;)) That is not to say that Andy Galpin's exercise expertise is any lesser, imo, than Peter Attias health/exercise expertise - but the two Huberman interviews with 2 different health experts, focuses on two entirely different aspects of applied exercise & health.
Gluten is known to to cause cerebellar ataxia (loss of balance) when it crosses the BBB in the elderly. There was mentioned on the biomarkers screen tight junction proteins. In the intestines zonulin is the tight junction protein that gluten breaks. Is this, please, the same protein and process that happens at the blood brain barrier ?
At about 20 minutes in I noticed that Axel seems to have a Star Trek style jumper (jumper: is English for pullover) on, then suddenly darker bands appeared lower down; Ye old Bumble Bee jumper. Well, apart from that, ramping up to be quite a good discussion (as usual). Thanks you two. Bye.

If BBB is frequently imaged as starting to become more 'leaky' at the hippocampus, and lots of research shows that the hippocampus is a site of brain tissue having elevated toxic metal lead, is it the per oxidative action of lead on bi-lipid layers on contact with the lead, that might be initiating much of the leakiness? Bone body burden of lead is in most of us, and can be mobilized as calcium is sought from bone to deal with physiologic stresses of old age, illness, or pregnancy, when we are most vulnerable?
Thanks, recap , exercises food, sleep,stress, most disease are vascular diseases and blood flow like watering plants, sunshine,nutrients and oxygen.Brain is just one organ in the ecosystem of the body which is part of all ecosystem. All connected. ,
Thankfully Two glasses is enough. Resvereatrol is very effective at low doses. The wellness messiah has a series on this based on dr sinclaires research.
Reduction of inflammation is key it sounds like, there are studies about non-toxic levels of THC not only aid in removal of Beta Amyloid proteins but also drastically reduce the inflammation in the neurons, could it also reduce the inflammation elsewhere?
It’s difficult to obtain pharmaceutical purity THC plus there is not much info re: dosing. Much more studied and reliable natural anti inflammatories are Omega 3 at 2000-3000 mg daily, Turmeric with at least 90% curcuminoids, at 2000 mg daily total, in divided doses. Both quite extensively studied, especially in Parkinson’s, MS as well as inflammation from cancer. I am a psychiatrist, btw
@@simonaborza4658 From what I understand THCA is the form of THC while the plant is still alive , once the plant is harvested there is a slow degeneration of the molecule by loosing one carbon atom creating the THC, The acidic form THCA has the same properties as THC as far as an anti-inflamitory and ability to remove Beta-amaloid protiens, but it does not have any intoxication effects. I have been concidering growing a plant and just eat it green on a daily basis. Not much of a gardener though, LOL
I did the following cardio process to reduce endothelim surface plaque, inflammation at age 66. Regardlsess of age, the inflamation of endothelium can be reduced by a diet that brings about the natural NO endothelium production process. Cruciferous vegatables eaten with acedic acid in vinegars or, if allergic to Cruciferous vegs, other green leafy vegs, again w acedic acid. In each day, 6x times per day, a small handful of green leafy vegs, (with each meal = 3x, 2 hrs after each meal). This causes the endothelium to cleans inside of vessels. The inflammation, some call plaque, can be reduced in size. To decrease the size of arterial plaque, the inflamation do 3 more things: 1. Eat spicey vegs having capsaicin. Doesn’t have to be super hot, but spicey. Raw, cook is a personal preference. Cook longer reduces the hotness but capsaicin is still anti-infalammatory. 2. Stop eating foods that cause inflamtion. You will need to determine very common foods in Western diets that cause the inflamation of blood vessels on the endothelium, and it is NOT ONLY CHOLESTEROL! 3. Elliminate inflamatory foods. No oils from a bottle, no processed deli meats, no GMO wheat, grains. This application of green leafy vegs, anti-inflammatory foods and ellimination of infammatory foods. is potent and it works. Must get exercise once a day to some sweating, doesn't have to be excessive sweat. Joints stop aching, reduces the roo. Inflammation plaque while i creasing diameter of blood flow area in vessels. Ref: Dr. Caldwell Essestyn MD, Cardiologist, Cleveland Clinic This dr recovers cardio patients who are inoperative, cannot have surgery. The extreme form of this diet removes all animal meats and is coupled with a vegan diet that used plant- based proteins.
What about Specialized Pro Resolving Mediators for a “stronger” means of having the affect of Omega 3? Especially in cases of noted disease pathology, could Specialized Pro Resolving Mediators be a wise idea? This was an in incredible interview!
My grandfather ran marathons and was active until the last 2-3 years of his life. Also enjoyed cigars occasionally and nicotine is supposedly good for the brain. Alzheimer’s really wiped him out. Sadly the genetics couldn’t be avoided I suppose
Mark, I’m so sorry to hear this sad news about your Grandfather. Hard to believe such a hale and hearty man could succumb to Alzheimer’s. There’s do much we don’t understand.
So, if fibrinogen in blood can be elevated with air particulate pollution, and omega3 can reduce it, log stretches of forest fir smoke on the west coast, it may be VERY important to be getting more omega 3 and less omega 6 for more reason than BBB protection?
Rightio… omega 3 and exercise. I resistance train 6-7 days a week, jog/row 3 days a week, I climb mountains and I am acclimatized (extra blood due to being above 8000 feet) and I take krill oil daily. I hit the sauna and cold plung 2-3 times a week. My brain should be supercharged into the next decade!
Alzheimers, surely partly a result of reducing cholesterol when really calcium just needed k2to stop it clogging arteries? Cholesterol would have more room...? My husband was a man who regularly cycled and he got dementia and died young but he had been fit We need an overhaul infarming to put k2 back indiets

Amazing discussion, thank you. Axel made the same point I was shouting at my device about! The devil is in the detail and we have to think of alcohol in its specific context. Nobody drinks ‘alcohol’ ...they drink ‘alcoholic drinks’ and could that not explain the sex difference in data between men & women and the effects of ‘alcohol’? There’s no denying that on average women are less likely to drink pints of beer, and more likely to drink wine, or spirits & mixer, even if we keep the alcohol quantities comparable. Axel saved the day by reminding us that the French, par exemple, drink moderate amounts of red wine often, which contains (?) protective compounds. However, Rhonda, you quickly countered that daily drinking should be discouraged. But what about the Sardinian centenarians who drink a couple of small glasses of their local organic wine DAILY, and never seem to develop any chronic, vascular or degenerative illnesses whatsoever (at least until they’re over 100!). Although personally I choose to drink alcohol only at special celebrations, if I lived near a source of organic Cannonau red wine from locally grown grapes, things would be different! I really do feel enough distinction has not been made between the drinks nature themselves.
As a 61 yr old meditating, non-smoking, regular exercising (cardio/resistance/boxing/yoga), sauna goer, intermittent faster (earlyTRE pattern) on a plant based diet with regular oily fish and a little meat now and then (40-50 plants per week), zero added sugar, constant brain stimulation from work & play, no increased genetic disease risks that I know of, a wonderful family, low stress and a safe home, I feel grateful and blessed, but for goodness sake, leave that moderate intake of organic red wine alone! Oh and I eat a square of 70% dark chocolate daily - please may I reserve my telegram from the King when I’m 100?
Many thanks to both, you clever, clever scientists 🙏 🙏
Excellent presentation! I have read mostly sic lit for the toxicologic mechanisms of the co-morbidity of the metal lead Pb. I am increasingly concerned that it is not commonly incorporated into research related to brain micro-vasculature mechanisms. Understandably, research is necessarily oversimplification in order to try to make sense of the mechanisms, their additive and synergistic complications of pathogenicity. I would love to hear you two discuss any aspects of Pb toxic mechanisms in BBB involvement related to the complexity you have so well clarified here. Lead is said to cause per oxidation of lipids on contact, which seems important to consider for endothelial integrity in BBB. And, given our lead body burden accumulations (typically 100 to 1000 x's that in prehistoric bone), and mobilization of Pb when the body comes under stress of old age, illness, pregnancy) where the body seeks additional calcium (lead follows calcium through many physiologic pathways). Significant research has been done about brain lead adverse effects on many functions( eg. glutathione reductions of up to 60%, GABA reductions, per oxidation of membranes, astrocyte damage, etc.) seemingly very important to inclusion into more depth of discussion of existing research of brain lead as co-morbidity in BBB effects and more. Then, there is the spike protein damage brain vasculature effects initiating BBB perforation, and the nitric oxide importance in small vessel dilation of smooth muscle function for blood flow, and how so called 'ED of the brain' might have a wild possibility of some kind of alleviation of constrictive mechanisms via sildenafil use(?) on and on complexity... so grateful for your work!
Thank you for putting out shorter clips!
Very enjoyable to listen to your discussion and your questions.
love having the accompanying slides
Thanks Dr Patrick - Always great content!
Excellent guest and discussion! Of note would be the role of blood brain-microbiome health plays in overall blood brain barrier health
Healthy plant based diet, lots of moderate and some intense exercise,controlling stress, good sleep hygiene has got to help
And plenty of brain ‘exercise’, time with friends, family, community and a sense of purpose...oh and I find early Time Restricted Eating to be incredibly vitalising and energising
I wonder how similar blood brain barrier health is to skin health? Perhaps all of the supplements that help skin like collagen would also have a beneficial effect on the blood brain barrier membrane.
Thank you for this, I have svd early onset and I found this information extremely useful
THANK YOU BOTH..
My grandfather and all his siblings died of Alzheimers and it was not hereditary (autopsy was done). However, they were all exposed to high levels of DDT in the 40's and 50's and DDT is a known risk factor. Unfortunately, that stuff is still in our food supply as it's still used in some parts of the world. Lots of different causes.
My father and most of his siblings are going through this. My dad is still alive but is end stage. 2 of his sisters have already passed wIth it. 2 others have and are not as far along in the process. One doesn't have it - I'm sure he's waiting his turn. Needless to say, the next generation of our family is worried.
@@JMSsssssss sorry to he hear about what your family is going through, it is really hard. Dreadful disease. My dad and all his siblings have been worried about getting it too. But they are all in their 70's and so far fine...So many were exposed to DDT years ago and are now elderly, I wonder how much of the Alzheimers today was possibly caused by that.
The bigger poison that your relatives were exposed to and that you yourself were exposed to its called sugar the resulting insulin rise and blood sugar rise causing you heard them say small vessel disease what's cluckin the small vessels.. plaque caused by excess of sugar we are our own worst enemy we poison ourselves
fyi..the body repairs itself and also does away with many toxins regardless of the exposure and time of it. Proper nutrition is what prevents it. it's important to take note that 200-300 years ago the European #Nordic #foodDeserts
#reindeerherdsman we're still roaming the #articTundra and had no diseases. In #Mongolia and #Siberia the reindeer herdsman are still very active but have new wrapped manufactured foods such as sweet breads where now they get diabetes and high blood pressure and even cancer. So it is very important to take note that salt consumption has gone substantially down and that everyone is afraid of saturated animal fats and now stay away from organ meats. please understand that if you take a #statin, if you take an #anticoagulant any of these are devastating your #collagen stores in your body and your body is unable to rebuild it. #DrDaleBrenesen

Thank you for this interview. Fascinating information. Question please: Do you think warm climates , especially exercise during warm days, enhance cardiovascular benefits, similar to the effects of using a sauna?
There is a *the book on heat* which discusses this topic in detail.
@@GreyBeard_Fit and the conclusion?
Thank you both for this great interview, I'll start exercising again
My brain has been bashed more times than I can count, both accidentally and clinically. ER trips for dream reenactment behavior accidents and brain biopsy for CNS vasculitis. I can honestly say survived all this and have even experienced some reversal of so called incurable conditions. I'm saving this video for future reference. My brain is very precious to me.
Axel seems to be incredibly knowledgeable on a variety of related subjects, we're lucky that he's doing research on dementia
Excellent interview and information ...
Love Dr Rhonda!! Hope she goes back on JRE soon!!
I don't think that will happen anytime soon. Rogan an antivaxers. Dr Rhonda is all about the science. Conflicting to the antivaxers
@@buckw65 part of a scientist's job is to educate people so I hope she looks at it that way and also Rogan loves her at the very least it's a good place to be to disagree
@@jusTRYNAgetaPEANUT very valid points. Thanks for that....gives me hope
Plus Rhonda gave him a run for his money and set him straight over the nonsense he was parroting re vaccines, so no...she’s not afraid to challenge anyone. Go Warrior Rhonda!
Exercise- do you need to achieve any particular level of heart rate and if so for how long? Repetitive throughout the exercise period or for longer periods, or?
Usually the intensity of exercise that it’s proven to help with cardiovascular disease is 30 min daily of brisk walk; the “ gauge” would be to walk fast enough to have difficulty talking fluently.
That was most interesting and enlightening. Thank you.
I love this interview about Alzheimer and Dementia
If vascular disease is the culprit then wouldn't a plant based diet, reduction in stress, in addition to exercise be a preventative measure from alzheimer’s/dementia?
I think that's reasonable. I've noticed a couple of the health channels I like seem to avoid tackling the plant-based vs. other diet options too directly in relation to health topics, such as this one about brain diseases.
Possibly for fear that proponents of other non-plant based diets will take offense. So they've determined that it's just not worth the grief and loss of platform revenue to commit too strongly on that front. Instead they concentrate upon the exercise, sleep, stress minimization aspects, with only a lesser degree of exploration into the dietary components. Just my hunch anyway.
And improved sleep hygiene too. You make a good point.
@The Monopoly Experiment
Well, it's more a case of not really knowing...as in, scientific fact. And, no I'm not talking about epidemiological 'studies'. It's all hypothetical - the pb diet health benefits.
Amazing presentation! Thank you and would love a follow up that covers some preventative interventions and also would be very interested your views on the recent study showing an adverse interaction between Rapamycin and plaque development in mouse models.
Do inversions, such as headstands, help with the blood flow and the health of these vessels?
Awesome episode 👏
Would be very curious to see how COVID can play into this given it's issues with clotting and microvasculature issues.
So from the first part it sounds as though maintaining the integrity of the pericyte is key and one method is through stem cell therapy. I saw something recently that sai having 2 cups of hot cocao or cocoa a day will at least double your natural stem cell production. I love hot cocoa, worth a try .
Larry, you get the # of stem cells you get, at birth. Totally untrue that your body can manufacture additional stemcells.
Gratitude! Heroic work
Preventative jabs for various infectious diseases, such as hepatitis and HPV, contain large amount of sorbitol 80, an emulsifier also used in the treatment of brain cancer to increase permeability of BBB to allow chemotherapy to pass through. Those jabs also contain large amount of heavy metals such as AL and that go straight to the brain.
Interesting. Is the increase in permeability of BBB temporary or permanent?
Ronda, Fabulous interview. Thank you. I have Alzheimer's on both sides of my family so I'm working it hard.
My current thoughts on my Alzheimer's and Dementia prevention protocol...
... High dose of Omega 3 daily to get my Omega3 index as close to a dolphin as possible (I'm at 18% now)
... High intensity cardio several times a week (sprint spin classes) Zone 5 training driving Vo2Max up.
... Dry Sauna sessions frequently
... Lift weights and eat loads of protein to build muscle mass.
... Get great sleep targeting at least two hours of deep sleep each night.
Anything else?
Rhonda, your lighting is sure excellent.
I wonder if because the blood brain barrier doesn't let fructose pass in and out of it, but artificial sweeteners can pass through and are converted into fructose (e.g., sorbitol), fructose gets trapped in the brain and causes problems related to AD?
Wha??? Oh my that is scary! Do you remember the source of that info? I’ve been using artificial sweeteners for quite a while and I’m just now starting to hear some bad things about them, so I’m curious to learn more.
@@RosieJ7223 hey! I don't on hand, but if you look at the enzymatic process for sucralose, you'll see it is converted directly into fructose. Also, respective searches for "does fructose cross bbb" and "does sucralose cross bbb" should have answer in top result.
See: Robert Lustig, on sweetness on receptors on the tongue signaling for storing everything as fat, even to the point of reducing metabolism levels to keep from burning fats.@@RosieJ7223
Fantastic pod! I worry as Covid is slowly looking like an endothelium damaging disease what this means for chronic disease like CD.
Thank you !!!
The research is promising.
You always make exceptional YT’s .. thank you. So, until advanced therapies available …. Aerobic exercise, keep ldl cholesterol (and apoB) glucose, BP as low as possible, at least for small/micro vessel / vascular dementia?
Excellent. Lots of fun stuff. Thanks. I’m going to go for a walk. To buy some salmon.😊
@ultramegasuper -, 🤣😂😅
What about Vitamin D3 supplementation ( prior vitamin D level check)? I know it’s important in PD, MS and other movement disorders( as well as depression, sleep quality).
Do highly active people, aerobic instructors , athletes, get dementia?
I started looking up how L-Citrulline Malate or Arginine might help.
What did you find? Is it good for the micro vasculature?
can the blood brain barrier be repaired after pathological damage
ty for sharing
I am curious how specialized pro-resolving mediators can play a role in reducing the loss or protection of pericytes. SPM function can decrease with age and poor nutrition so I am curious if this is seen in correlation with pericyte loss.
I am curious about this, as well.
Fantastic, thanks
Dr. Patrick, is this applicable at all to MS, and how would you naturally lower fibrinogen safely or via fibrin-targeted immunotherapy?
Air pollution in Mexico City has high levels of fine particulate of lead, and given that lead atoms are well known to turn lipids rancid on contact, this seems likely to be a mechanism of olfactory bulb membrane damage and entry into the CNS?
What about the TREM2 gene and microglia cells? Thanks Dr. Patrick for having this brilliant man on. Wonderful. Also BACE enzyme?
My Mom died of Vascular Dementia in the "80s. The term vascular was used back then so I am not too sure how new (or old) the identification of this type of dementia is.
Is there any possible way to fix the transcript? What he is saying is do incredibly important, and so incredibly hard to understand phonetically.
Which of the symptoms. Such as damaged vessels, microbleeds whitematter, lacunes, spaces, and brain atrophy, etc. can be repaired, once already present, via exercise and or supplementation?
WOW!!! How to fight these diseases!
Watching this made me start researching the supplements of lysine, L-Citrulline, L-Arginine and the soy milk I drink, but I lack the background to figure it out but I can't help but think that an increase in nitric oxide might be helpful. Luckily I get tons of exercise, so much so I worry about stroke, that is how I started taking supplements that increase it. And thanks to Rhonda, I get lots of cold water fatty fish dishes.

What type exercise is recommended to keep the small vessels working? Longer bouts of low level cardio versus HIIT versus,... ? Thanks.
Axel calls out high heart rate, specifically. There's some evidence that the shearing forces of higher heart rates themselves promote BDNF in the brain. Furthermore, you're likely to see more lactate production from a HIIT style... I'm a fan!
That being said, being active in whatever capacity is always going to be better than not being active and put you worlds ahead of being sedentary.
@@FoundMyFitness Thank you
Excellent information thank you Rhonda
Did they give any protocol? Dr. Andy Galpin told Andrew Huberman to give MAX effort to MAX heart rate once/wk at least "just touch it" but preferably 4x/wk. He also gave a separate protocol of a weekly HARD effort that can only be sustained from 4-8 minutes once/wk, preferably 4x/wk.
Did Dr. Patrick/Montagne give a protocol recommendation of their own?
@ MR8RAVES - That's totally out of context. (Of this subject)
Huberman and Galpin are discussing overall health benefits in the context of exercise for strength and hypertrophy.
Different context than the subject of exercise & BBB, alzheimers, and benefitting blood vessels in the brain, as discussed here.
You'd get closer to this subject about how to apply exercise for cardiovascular health & brain health, by tuning in to Huberman's most recent interview of Dr. Peter Attias. (This past week, I believe ;))
That is not to say that Andy Galpin's exercise expertise is any lesser, imo, than Peter Attias health/exercise expertise - but the two Huberman interviews with 2 different health experts, focuses on two entirely different aspects of applied exercise & health.
@@barbarafairbanks4578 right, will listen to Attia on Hub... no protocol here though
Excellent video thank you! So saunas and aerobic exercise would help because of the vascular benefits?
Gluten is known to to cause cerebellar ataxia (loss of balance) when it crosses the BBB in the elderly.
There was mentioned on the biomarkers screen tight junction proteins. In the intestines zonulin is the tight junction protein that gluten breaks. Is this, please, the same protein and process that happens at the blood brain barrier ?
Excellent and very informative. Thanks
At about 20 minutes in I noticed that Axel seems to have a Star Trek style jumper (jumper: is English for pullover) on, then suddenly darker bands appeared lower down; Ye old Bumble Bee jumper. Well, apart from that, ramping up to be quite a good discussion (as usual). Thanks you two. Bye.
What about high heart-rate from medications? Such as the many amphetamine-derived ADHD medications?
I wish there was more research on causes and prevention of ALS. It seems like we know much less in comparison to other neurodegenerative diseases.

Great content, but I didn't understand 90% of it. Do I have Alzheimer's?
No, but you may be a native English speaker😅
Just sayin...
(not at all a dis on this gentleman's delicious French accent ;))
Do the studies on Aircraft Technicians who work at the Airport Platforms .. the most effected studies i guess.
If BBB is frequently imaged as starting to become more 'leaky' at the hippocampus, and lots of research shows that the hippocampus is a site of brain tissue having elevated toxic metal lead, is it the per oxidative action of lead on bi-lipid layers on contact with the lead, that might be initiating much of the leakiness? Bone body burden of lead is in most of us, and can be mobilized as calcium is sought from bone to deal with physiologic stresses of old age, illness, or pregnancy, when we are most vulnerable?
Have you looked at the people who use KETO diets and what happens to the BBB and what happens to Omega 3 get effected when you use KETO diet?
I wonder if there could be a way of detecting vessel leakiness in an eye exam?
Great question. I wonder how closely the retinal barrier health correlates to BBB and whether there's some diagnostic opportunity there...
When you go to a retina specialist they can take pictures of the retina, and it will show any leaking.
Thanks, recap , exercises food, sleep,stress, most disease are vascular diseases and blood flow like watering plants, sunshine,nutrients and oxygen.Brain is just one organ in the ecosystem of the body which is part of all ecosystem. All connected. ,
Rhonda is ❤️
Some videos say that all you need to do is drink about 10 buckets of wine a day to get a significant does of Resveratrol. Is that true?
Thankfully Two glasses is enough. Resvereatrol is very effective at low doses. The wellness messiah has a series on this based on dr sinclaires research.
In my late 60’s i’m slower thinking in the morning unless I lightly walk treadmill or stationary bike or deep breathing exercises .
Yep! That's all the red wine thats needed...a couple of buckets, or 3, or 5...outta do it.
Good luck😄
Reduction of inflammation is key it sounds like, there are studies about non-toxic levels of THC not only aid in removal of Beta Amyloid proteins but also drastically reduce the inflammation in the neurons, could it also reduce the inflammation elsewhere?
It’s difficult to obtain pharmaceutical purity THC plus there is not much info re: dosing. Much more studied and reliable natural anti inflammatories are Omega 3 at 2000-3000 mg daily, Turmeric with at least 90% curcuminoids, at 2000 mg daily total, in divided doses. Both quite extensively studied, especially in Parkinson’s, MS as well as inflammation from cancer. I am a psychiatrist, btw
@@simonaborza4658 From what I understand THCA is the form of THC while the plant is still alive , once the plant is harvested there is a slow degeneration of the molecule by loosing one carbon atom creating the THC, The acidic form THCA has the same properties as THC as far as an anti-inflamitory and ability to remove Beta-amaloid protiens, but it does not have any intoxication effects. I have been concidering growing a plant and just eat it green on a daily basis. Not much of a gardener though, LOL
I did the following cardio process to reduce endothelim surface plaque, inflammation at age 66.
Regardlsess of age, the inflamation of endothelium can be reduced by a diet that brings about the natural NO endothelium production process. Cruciferous vegatables eaten with acedic acid in vinegars or, if allergic to Cruciferous vegs, other green leafy vegs, again w acedic acid. In each day, 6x times per day, a small handful of green leafy vegs, (with each meal = 3x, 2 hrs after each meal). This causes the endothelium to cleans inside of vessels. The inflammation, some call plaque, can be reduced in size. To decrease the size of arterial plaque, the inflamation do 3 more things:
1. Eat spicey vegs having capsaicin. Doesn’t have to be super hot, but spicey. Raw, cook is a personal preference. Cook longer reduces the hotness but capsaicin is still anti-infalammatory.
2. Stop eating foods that cause inflamtion. You will need to determine very common foods in Western diets that cause the inflamation of blood vessels on the endothelium, and it is NOT ONLY CHOLESTEROL!
3. Elliminate inflamatory foods. No oils from a bottle, no processed deli meats, no GMO wheat, grains.
This application of green leafy vegs, anti-inflammatory foods and ellimination of infammatory foods. is potent and it works.
Must get exercise once a day to some sweating, doesn't have to be excessive sweat.
Joints stop aching, reduces the roo. Inflammation plaque while i creasing diameter of blood flow area in vessels.

This dr recovers cardio patients who are inoperative, cannot have surgery. The extreme form of this diet removes all animal meats and is coupled with a vegan diet that used plant- based proteins.
What about Specialized Pro Resolving Mediators for a “stronger” means of having the affect of Omega 3? Especially in cases of noted disease pathology, could Specialized Pro Resolving Mediators be a wise idea?
This was an in incredible interview!
My grandfather ran marathons and was active until the last 2-3 years of his life. Also enjoyed cigars occasionally and nicotine is supposedly good for the brain. Alzheimer’s really wiped him out. Sadly the genetics couldn’t be avoided I suppose
Nicotine is a vasoconstrictor !
@@bbyng7316 indeed but it’s been said for years now that nicotine is neuro protective. No idea what the truth is haha
Sorry to hear about your Grandfather. Nicotine is very interesting. Check out the PubMed article.
Mark, I’m so sorry to hear this sad news about your Grandfather. Hard to believe such a hale and hearty man could succumb to Alzheimer’s. There’s do much we don’t understand.
Diet can also play it's part.
So, if fibrinogen in blood can be elevated with air particulate pollution, and omega3 can reduce it, log stretches of forest fir smoke on the west coast, it may be VERY important to be getting more omega 3 and less omega 6 for more reason than BBB protection?
And, lead particulate is so often a component of that city dust air pollution.
Rightio… omega 3 and exercise. I resistance train 6-7 days a week, jog/row 3 days a week, I climb mountains and I am acclimatized (extra blood due to being above 8000 feet) and I take krill oil daily. I hit the sauna and cold plung 2-3 times a week. My brain should be supercharged into the next decade!
