What if the most important factor in preventing Alzheimer’s isn’t avoiding stress—but building resilience? 🧠
In this episode, I speak with Ari Whitten ( @theenergyblueprint ) about why Alzheimer’s may be largely preventable—and why cognitive decline is not an inevitable part of aging.
Why this matters:
🧬 Alzheimer’s may be driven by evolutionary mismatch, not genetics alone
⚡ Cognitive, mitochondrial, and cardiovascular fitness build powerful brain resilience
🔥 Hormetic stressors like exercise, learning, and sauna use strengthen the brain over time
This is a hopeful, science-based conversation about what it really takes to protect brain health in the modern world.
