    The Alzheimer's Drugs Don't Work — Here's What Does (featuring Dr. David Perlmutter) | EP 416

    Big Pharma bet billions on one theory: clear the amyloid, cure Alzheimer's. A new Cochrane review of 20,000+ patients just proved them wrong — these drugs don't work, and they may be putting your brain at risk. So what's really driving this epidemic? My guest today, six-time New York Times bestselling author and board-certified neurologist Dr. David Perlmutter, says the answer lies in a set of cells most people have never even heard of — and he lays it all out in his new book, Brain Defenders. The good news is, you already have more control over them than any drug could ever give you. We're talking about microglia, the brain's immune cells, and why the choices you make today may matter more than anything a prescription pad can offer. For full show notes and transcript: https://drgundry.com/david-perlmutter-alzheimers On this episode, you’ll learn:   All about the new study that found leading Alzheimer's drugs deliver almost no benefit (02:09)Why the so-called enemy in your brain is not what we thought at all (07:34)What microglia are, and why these overlooked immune cells may be the real gatekeepers of your brain's health (05:15)How everyday metabolic issues like blood sugar and insulin resistance can affect your brain (09:30)Why one in nine Americans over 65 is already living with dementia (and most don’t know it) (14:08)The surprising connection between Parkinson's, depression, and even autism spectrum conditions (15:11)How THIS lifestyle program helped 70% of Alzheimer's patients stabilize or even improve their cognitive function — no drugs required (17:09)The one mindset shift Dr. Perlmutter says has to happen before any diet or exercise plan will actually work for your brain (22:17)Why getting quality sleep does more for your brain than you think (27:49)The simple blood test you should request NOW to gauge your Alzheimer's risk (33:25)Why women make up two-thirds of Alzheimer's patients (35:29)The critical window for starting hormone replacement therapy (40:08)The truth about antibacterial mouthwash, and why it might be quietly working against your brain health (58:14)A 25-year-old flossing study that predicted exactly what today's top neurology journals are just now confirming (01:00:05)Dr. Perlmutter's honest answer to whether you should take the newer Alzheimer's drugs your doctor may be recommending (01:05:31)More about Dr. David Perlmutter: Dr. David Perlmutter’s website Dr. David Perlmutter’s Instagram New book: Brain Defenders: Harness the Power of Your Immune Cells to Protect Your Brain for Life by Dr. David Perlmutter Research: Cochrane Review Tanzi Study Thank you to our sponsors!

    How Much Vitamin D You REALLY Should Be Taking | EP 415

    I once had a patient tell me, "You don't know much about vitamin D, do you?"  He had a point, not because I hadn't studied it, but because so much of what we're taught about vitamin D simply hasn't caught up to the research. My patient’s question  led me down a path of research that changed how I treat every patient who walks through my door. In this episode, I break down Why vitamin D isn't a vitamin at all but a hormone quietly running the show for your gut and immune system Why the "toxic" dose you've been warned about is a myth that's kept millions of people needlessly deficient Why this one hormone might be the closest thing we have to a longevity switch. Plus, learn the exact number I push my own patients' levels to, and why your doctor's idea of "normal" is probably way too low. For full show notes and transcript: drgundry.com/how-much-vitamin-d-should-i-take On this episode, you’ll learn:   Why vitamin D isn't actually a vitamin (01:11)How nearly 80% of new patients turn out to be vitamin D deficient (you probably are too!) (01:31)What vitamin D has to do with the diversity of your gut microbiome (02:18)What a major university research group discovered about vitamin D at doses most people assume would be dangerous (09:04)A real patient story from this week, and the dose it took to finally get his vitamin D levels where they needed to be (11:33)The sweet spot dose of vitamin D that works for most people — and who might need to dial it back (12:46)Why doing THIS to your peppers might be the trick to enjoying them without the reaction (16:32) Thank you to our sponsors!

    Using AI for Medical Advice? Here's the Best (and Worst) Way to Do It | EP 414

    Have you asked ChatGPT or Claude a health question before?  AI is already changing how patients research symptoms, read labs, and make health decisions — and that could be one of the most empowering shifts in medicine, or a potential disaster. My guest today knows exactly where that line is. Dr. Vivienne Ming is a theoretical neuroscientist who's spent 30years building AI to expand human potential, founding more than a dozen companies along the way. She has built one of the first AI systems ever designed to help manage a disease, and she shares it all in her new book, Robot-Proof: When Machines Have All the Answers, Build Better People. On this episode, we get into where AI genuinely helps your health, where it quietly diminishes your own power of intellect and reason, and why the smartest "mind" in any room isn't a genius or a supercomputer.  On this episode, you’ll learn:   Why doctors and AI make "complementary" errors—and how combining them beats either one alone (01:31)How outsourcing your thinking to AI over a lifetime could raise your risk of THESE health issues (06:54)A fascinating experiment that reveals how you can build richer, denser brain connections through this (10:03)Why your brain does a nightly cleanup during sleep (13:25)The "nemesis prompt" trick for using AI to challenge you instead of letting it do the thinking for you (15:24)What the "Jiffy Lube colonoscopy" problem is, and which doctors suffer from it the most (18:13)The hidden bias problem in medical AI—and why it may perform worse for underrepresented populations (27:42)The real reason AI hallucinations can never be fully eliminated, and what that means for how much you should trust it (30:00)A simple technique for using AI to build real understanding of any health condition (40:15)Practical guardrails for deciding how much to trust an AI answer before you bring it to your doctor (45:02) For full show notes and transcript: https://drgundry.com/should-i-trust-ai-for-health-advice Thank you to our sponsors!
