#313 How Creatine, Omega 3, Vitamin D and Specific Exercises Can Protect Your Brain | Dr Louisa Nicola

Dementia is a disease of lifestyle. That’s what my guest Dr Louisa believes, and it’s her mission to get everyone up to speed on the science so we can delay or entirely prevent dementia around the globe.

Today we’re diving into supplements like creatine, omega 3 and vitamin D as they relate to brain health optimisation and prevention of one of the biggest killers in the UK, Dementia. I now personally take these supplements regularly as part of my daily routine and while I don’t necessarily feel immediate benefits, the research is solid enough for me to make this decision.

Dr Louisa specialises in neurophysiology, Alzheimer’s disease prevention, and the science of brain optimisation. Her mission is to live in a world where Alzheimer’s no longer exists. 

Louisa graduated from the University of Sydney Medical School, where her doctoral focus in neurophysiology spotlighted lifestyle interventions and neurodegeneration. After relocating to New York, she advanced her research career by working alongside world-class neurosurgeons, contributing to clinical investigations in cranioplasty and post-neurosurgical outcomes, with a particular emphasis on the role of exercise and nutrition in recovery and brain health.

A trusted advisor to high-performing athletes and healthcare professionals, Louisa translates complex neuroscience into actionable strategies for longevity, brain health, and performance.
