Protecting the Brain: Navigating Neurodegenerative Disease with Dr. Kellyann Niotis All Too Well
-
- Health & Fitness
Today, we’re diving deep into a topic that's not just crucial but also alarmingly on the rise in our society- neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, and Lewy body dementia. These aren’t just concerns in old age anymore; they’re a growing reality for many, even hitting a bit too close to home for yours truly, and early detection can make a world of difference.
Enter Dr. Kellyann Niotis. A trailblazer in her field, Dr. Niotis is the first fellowship-trained preventative neurologist specializing in risk reduction strategies for neurodegenerative disorders. She spearheads the neurology program at Dr. Peter Attia’s acclaimed medical practice and is a fervent brain health researcher. Surprisingly, she’s somewhat of a lone wolf, given that preventative neurology isn’t yet recognized as a medical specialty – a fact that is both shocking and a damn shame, considering the escalating prevalence of neurodegenerative diseases.
Dr. Niotis is here to share her groundbreaking strategies and research, shining a light on a field that’s calling out for attention and innovation. We’ll explore why preventative neurology is an unsung hero in medicine, discuss the impact of early detection, and share invaluable knowledge on battling neurodegenerative diseases. Dr. Niotis’s insights are not just enlightening; they’re essential in a time when these disorders are on the rise.
Correction: Alzheimer's is expected to double again by 2040, not 2030 as stated during the interview.
Dr. Kellyann discusses:
Why early intervention is so important with neurodegenerative diseases and what you can do to catch the signsUnderstanding the factors that drive neurodegenerative diseases personallyThe link between hormone replacement therapy and breast cancer/AlzheimersMaximizing your brain’s real estate
