Cutting Edge Health: Preventing Cognitive Decline

Welcome to the Cutting Edge Health Podcast. I‘m Jane Rogers. My plan in starting this podcast is to create a community empowered to prevent Alzheimer’s and cognitive decline. Yes, the latest research shows it can be prevented when caught early and we’ll talk with the medical experts who can help you do that. This is personal. My mother is in memory care. My father passed with AZ. I started experiencing memory issues, visible to those close to me, six years ago in my mid-50’s. With the right interventions I’m thriving today. It helps to think of preventing a neurodegenerative disease in baseball terms. Most interventions are base hits. They’re pretty small changes in your lifestyle, but eventually one by one they all add up to a big win. I want you or a loved one to have this big win for your brain! The key to making a difference in your brain health is keeping at it and asking the right questions. Upcoming episodes will cover: tackling pre-diabetes, getting inflammation down, ramping up deep sleep and ridding yourself of toxic metals in your brain like mercury and aluminum. Together we can learn to change the trajectory of our brain health and our lives!

    Dr. med Ralf Oettmeier - Reclaim Your Health: Discover the Cutting-Edge INUSpheresis Detox Therapy for a Toxin-Free Life

    Transcript with time code:  https://cuttingedgehealth.com/wp-ontent/uploads/2024/12/Transcript-45-Dr-Ralf-Oettmeier.pdf This Cutting Edge Health episode features Dr. med Ralf Oettmeier. The title “Dr. med” is commonly used in German-speaking countries in Europe, including Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. It’s equivalent to MD in the US. Dr. Oettmeier is medical director of the Alpstein Clinic outside of Zurich. It’s at this clinic where they perform INUSpheresis, a cutting-edge detoxification therapy designed to remove waste from plasma. This technique removes environmental toxins, metals, microplastics, pesticides, and inflammatory agents from the blood via a specialized filtration system. Dr. Oettmeier explains the holistic benefits of INUSpheresis for treating chronic illnesses, post-COVID syndrome, and as a preventive measure against cognitive decline, cancer, and heart disease. The therapy, unavailable in the U.S. due to FDA restrictions, complements traditional treatments like chelation but is gentler on the kidneys. Dr. Oettmeier highlights its effectiveness in improving health metrics. This conversation with Dr. Oettmeier underscores the importance of addressing toxins for longevity. Learn how this innovative approach has the potential to help you take charge of your well-being and age gracefully. ***** Dr. med. Ralf Oettmeier is head physician and medical director of the Alpstein Clinic in Gais, Switzerland, an integrative medical practice. Originally trained in conventional medicine at Friedrich Schiller University in Jena, Germany, Dr. Ralf, as he is called by his clients, acquired knowledge from various alternative forms of therapy over the years. He considers the Alpstein Clinic’s greatest strength to be successfully bringing together various disciplines of complementary medicine, such as homeopathy and acupuncture. Through the interaction of the individual disciplines, they achieve results that would otherwise never have been possible. One of those therapies is INUSpheresis® where disease-promoting substances and environmental toxins are filtered from your blood. Dr. Oettmeier recently lectured on this at the 14th European Congress of Integrative Medicine. ***** Cutting Edge Health podcast website: https://cuttingedgehealth.com/ Cutting Edge Health Social and YouTube:YouTube channel: youtube.com/@cuttingedgehealthpodcast Instagram - https://instagram.com/cuttingedgehealthpodcastFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/Cutting-Edge-Health-Podcast-with-Jane-Rogers-101036902255756 Please note that the information provided in this show is not medical advice, nor should it be taken or applied as a replacement for medical advice.

    Dr. Paul Savage (Part 2) - What Toxins Are the Worst and How to Combat Them

    Transcript with time code:  https://cuttingedgehealth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/Transcript-Dr-Paul-Savage-Part-2-What-toxins-are-the-worst-and-how-to-combat-them.docx-Google-Docs.pdf   In this episode of the Cutting Edge Health Preventing Cognitive Decline Podcast, host Jane Rogers welcomes back Dr. Paul Savage for part two of their discussion on the critical role toxins play in cognitive health and overall well-being. Dr. Savage explains how the increasing prevalence of environmental toxins—from pesticides to heavy metals—has created unprecedented health challenges, driving chronic inflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.   The conversation delves into plasma apheresis, a cutting-edge detoxification process that removes toxins directly from the bloodstream. Dr. Savage shares compelling anecdotes, including a case where detoxification significantly improved a patient's health and even supported a successful pregnancy. He emphasizes the importance of toxin avoidance, advocating for actionable steps such as high-quality water filters, toxin-free cosmetics, and dietary adjustments.   The discussion also highlights the limitations of traditional detox methods like saunas and chelation, which are only partially effective, and how plasma apheresis offers a more comprehensive solution. For those concerned about cognitive decline, Dr. Savage underscores the connection between toxins, inflammation, and brain health, pointing to his clinic's innovative protocols that have shown measurable improvements in patients' cognitive function.   This thought-provoking episode encourages listeners to take proactive steps toward detoxification and health restoration.   ********   At 37 years old, Dr. Paul Savage was a successful ER/trauma physician. But he was  unhealthy, weighed 270 pounds, smoked cigarettes, was tired, anxious, and unwell, and  had high cholesterol, high blood pressure, pre-diabetes, and stress.   Rejecting the conventional approach of more medications, his curiosity and  determination led him to explore various treatments and lifestyle changes—and  transform his life and career through precision medicine.    Twenty-five years later, he’s an advocate for combining traditional and integrative  medicine, focusing on an evidence-based approach that treats patients as partners. Dr.  Savage embraces a continuous pursuit of knowledge and integration of the latest  medical advancements into his practice, with several board certifications, including  certifications from the Stem Cell Fellowship, Integrative Metabolic Medicine, and the  American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine. Not to mention he built over 50 clinics  across the United States and literally wrote the code for the industry standard software  that has helped millions of patients.    Dr. Savage is now the founder and CEO of Chicago based MDLifespan.  He has more MDLifespan clinics set to open soon around the US. His latest endeavor of the  patented PlasmaXchangeTM protocol is the culmination of years of expertise — it's  poised to be the defining moment of his career, a transformative movement that will  reshape the future of medicine as we know it.   *****   Cutting Edge Health podcast website: https://cuttingedgehealth.com/   Cutting Edge Health Social and YouTube:YouTube channel: youtube.com/@cuttingedgehealthpodcast Instagram - https://instagram.com/cuttingedgehealthpodcastFacebook - https://www.facebook.com/Cutting-Edge-Health-Podcast-with-Jane-Rogers-101036902255756   Please note that the information provided in this show is not medical advice, nor should it be taken or applied as a replacement for medical advice.

    Dr. Jeffery Galvin - Muscle Loss and Cognitive Decline: Why Weight Loss Drugs Could Be Riskier Than You Think

    Transcript with time code:  https://cuttingedgehealth.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/09/Transcript-41-Dr.-Jeffrey-Galvin.pdf Over the past few years, we've gotten several effective and massively popular weight-loss drugs like Ozempic, Wagovi and Mounjaro. Such drugs cause loss of both fat and muscle. The first is good. The second is not. In this episode of the Cutting Edge Health podcast, Dr. Jeffrey Galvin returns to explain the critical connection between muscle mass and cognitive health, emphasizing that reduced muscle mass increases the risk of cognitive decline, falls, and overall mortality, particularly in older adults. He shares insights from his practice, where patients often struggle to regain muscle, especially women over 50. The episode delves into the importance of strength training, adequate protein intake, and personalized health monitoring to combat muscle loss and maintain long-term health and cognitive function. Dr. Galvin also touches on emerging therapies that could address these issues in the future including a number of clinical trials that are underway to test pharmaceuticals to preserve muscle mass that follows obesity treatments. Previously, muscle loss was thought to be an issue that doesn't respond to drugs. And yet we now have several promising phase-1 and phase-2 studies for drugs that not only preserve muscle but also improve fat loss — since more muscle makes it easier to lose fat. ***** Jeffrey Galvin is the medical director and founder of Vitality Medical Wellness Institute. He is board-certified in emergency medicine and obesity medicine.  He served as a major in the United States Air Force, specializing in trauma and emergency care.  After completing his military service, he settled in Concord, NC, with his wife and three children. With over 25 years’ experience working in some of the busiest emergency departments in the country, he has cared for over 50,000 emergency and trauma patients. Dr. Galvin has extensive training and experience in functional medicine, hormonal optimization, fitness, nutrition, genomics and epigenetics, and brain peak performance.  He is an expert biohacker experienced in nootropic use, peptide therapies, heart rate variability training, and sleep hacking.  His goal is maximizing human performance, reversing chronic disease and optimizing overall health. Dr. Galvin founded Vitality Medical Wellness Institute in 2010.  It was born out of frustration with modern medicine’s focus on treating symptoms of illness, not the underlying causes. The Institute seeks to change the paradigm by which the medical establishment trains doctors to treat chronic medical problems with medication while ignoring the root origins of disease.  Dr. Galvin believes that by focusing on nutrition, fitness, hormonal optimization, and permanent lifestyle changes, health can be optimized. By utilizing this approach his patients are able to reverse chronic medical conditions, lose weight and maximize performance. At the same time risk of future disease is minimized.
