About this episode

Dr Neal Barnard returns to discuss the essential nutrients needed for brain health and how to add them to our daily routines and diets.

Barnard's years of research have found that certain vitamins and nutrients can help prevent Alzheimer's and other mental illnesses. He shares the effects of supplementing vitamin E, vitamin B12, iron, and more along with how much we should consume. We discuss the effects of too little and too much of the proper nutrients and how to make sure we're getting what we need in our diets.

We talk about:

  • How vitamin E can reduce Alzheimer's
  • How to get vitamin E
  • Vitamin B12
  • Essential nutrients for Alzheimer’s prevention
  • Roles alcohol and caffeine play with Alzheimer’s
  • Menopause, Alzheimer’s, and the brain
  • DHA's, Omega-3s, and EPAs
