How D3 Supports Brain BDNF
Shawn describes new data showing vitamin D increases hippocampal BDNF, benefiting memory and brain aging.
Even though aging is a normal part of the human life cycle, our daily habits can either slow down or accelerate the rate at which we age. And when it comes to the aging of our brains, recent data shows that changes that we often associate as a natural part of the aging process are actually modifiable through specific and consistent lifestyle choices. Today, you’re going to learn exactly how to prolong the health of your brain and turn back your biological clock.
On this episode of The Model Health Show, you’re going to hear my interview with accelerated learning expert Jim Kwik on the Kwik Brain Podcast. In this interview, I’m sharing five science-backed ways to slow down brain aging. You’re going to learn how small changes to your sleep, nutrition, and mindset can make a huge impact on the way your brain ages.
Not only are these five tips proven by science, but they’re also accessible, free or low-cost, and easy to implement today for a better brain. These powerful strategies will help you protect your brain, feel your best, and live a longer, more fulfilling life. I hope you enjoy this episode of The Model Health Show!
