From Foggy Minds to Clear Thinking: How Vitamin D Impacts Mental Clarity
Louisa Nicola explores the crucial role of vitamin D in brain health, discussing its impact on memory, mood, sleep quality, and cognitive function. Highlighting recent studies, she explains how vitamin D deficiency can lead to mood disorders, impaired sleep, and cognitive decline. With insights into how vitamin D acts like a hormone, Nicola emphasizes its significance in neurotransmitter production and inflammation control. She also shares personal experiences and offers guidance on maintaining optimal vitamin D levels to support long-term brain health and resilience against age-related decline.Timestamp Summary0:00 Introduction to Vitamin D0:01 Vitamin D and Brain Health0:03 Importance of Vitamin D Receptors0:05 Vitamin D's Role in Sleep0:08 Vitamin D and Mood Regulation0:11 Cognitive Function and Vitamin D0:15 Vitamin D Deficiency and Global Impact0:17 Sunlight and Supplementation0:18 Conclusion and Personal InsightsSponsors: Hone Health Hormone Testing: https://honehealth.com/Book a 1-1 Call with a Neuro Athletics advisor to See If We Can Help You coaching practise: https://calendly.com/matty-lajolo/nacc-call?month=2024-10Momentous - Use code NEURO to get 20% off your order - https://www.livemomentous.com/neuroThe Neuro Athletics Newsletter Instagram: @louisanicola_Twitter : @louisanicola_YouTube: @Louisa NicolaThe Neuro Experience Podcast is proud to have hosted: Dr Andrew Huberman, Dr Gabrielle Lyon, Dr Layne Norton, Thomas DeLauer, Shawn Stevenson, Dr. Rocio Salas-Whalen, Saad Alam, Uma Naidoo, Dr. Lanna Cheuck, Angela Lee Pucci, Jillian Turecki, Dr. Jordan Feigenbaum, Dr. Darren Candow, Dr. Sue Varma, Evy Poumpouras, Dr Casey Means, Renee Deehan, Dr Chris Palmer, Dr Charles Brenner, Dr Joe Zundell, Dr Ray Dorsy, Dr Dale Bredeson

Trust Betrayed: Inside the Alzheimer's Disease Data Manipulation Crisis
Imagine being at the forefront of Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s research, holding hope for millions of patients. That’s where Eliezer Masliah stood—a top neuroscientist and key figure at the National Institute on Aging (NIA), responsible for overseeing billions in funding intended to push groundbreaking research on these devastating diseases forward.But things weren’t as they seemed.Recent investigations, including one published in Science (Vol 385, Issue 6716), have raised alarming questions about Masliah’s research. Over 100 of his studies may contain falsified data, including duplicated or manipulated images, claiming to reveal critical insights into how Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s impact the brain.If this sounds eerily familiar, you’re right. Just two years ago, another scandal rocked the Alzheimer’s research world. Sylvain Lesné's 2006 Nature paper was considered a landmark in Alzheimer’s research—until 2022, when it was revealed that the paper was tainted by manipulated data. That revelation sent shockwaves through the scientific community, throwing years of research and drug development into doubt.And now, we're facing a similar situation again.The implications of these new allegations against Masliah are massive. His work has shaped entire fields of study, influencing experimental treatments like the Parkinson’s drug prasinezumab. But with these revelations, years of research and billions of dollars in funding hang in the balance.What’s most heartbreaking? Real people—those battling Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s—are caught in the middle of this scandal. They've been placing their hopes in breakthroughs, trusting science to provide answers and relief. If the very research supporting their treatments is compromised, the cost isn't just in lost time and money—it's a betrayal of the trust placed in the system by millions of patients and their families.We have to demand better. Science, and the people depending on it, deserve better.The Neuro Athletics Newsletter Instagram: @louisanicola_Twitter : @louisanicola_YouTube: @Louisa NicolaThe Neuro Experience Podcast is proud to have hosted: Dr Andrew Huberman, Dr Gabrielle Lyon, Dr Layne Norton, Thomas DeLauer, Shawn Stevenson, Dr. Rocio Salas-Whalen, Saad Alam, Uma Naidoo, Dr. Lanna Cheuck, Angela Lee Pucci, Jillian Turecki, Dr. Jordan Feigenbaum, Dr. Darren Candow, Dr. Sue Varma, Evy Poumpouras, Dr Casey Means, Renee Deehan, Dr Chris Palmer, Dr Charles Brenner, Dr Joe Zundell, Dr Ray Dorsy, Dr Dale Bredeson

How Household Chemicals are Causing Parkinson's Disease | Dr Ray Dorsey
Dr. Ray Dorsey, a neurologist at the University of Rochester, delves deep into Parkinson's disease with host Louisa Nicola, unveiling its alarming rise as a preventable, man-made condition. This episode explores environmental triggers like pesticides and chemicals while discussing preventative measures, from dietary choices to air quality.In this episode, Dr Dorsey details the 3 common toxic chemicals in our environment and simple protocols to implement relating to the food we eat, what we drink, and the air we breathe.This episode is important for every person who wants to prevent brain diseases like Parkinson’s and Alzheimer's, and particularly for people who have an existing diagnosed brain disease."If Parkinson's disease is a man made disease, it can be human ended. It is not a natural consequence of aging."
