Train Your Brain: The Science Behind BrainHQ

In this illuminating episode of Wellness Connection MD, Dr. McMinn and Coach Lindsay welcome renowned neuroscientist Dr. Henry Mahncke, CEO of Posit Science and creator of BrainHQ. Together, they explore the science of neuroplasticity—how the brain can adapt, heal, and grow at any age—and discuss how BrainHQ leverages this power to improve cognition, memory, processing speed, and even reduce dementia risk.

Dr. Mahncke shares compelling insights from hundreds of peer-reviewed studies and groundbreaking clinical trials, including new research on brain atrophy in long COVID, and structural brain changes observed through fMRI. You'll also hear real-world stories of transformation—from stroke recovery to safer driving—illustrating the tangible benefits of personalized brain training.

Whether you're aging proactively, recovering from illness, or simply seeking sharper mental focus, this episode delivers hopeful, evidence-based tools to support your cognitive wellness.

✨ Key Topics Covered:

• How neuroplasticity rewires the brain across the lifespan
• The evidence behind BrainHQ’s cognitive training exercises
• Long COVID, depression, PTSD & brain fog: how BrainHQ helps
• Functional medicine, brain speed, and practical applications
• Real-life success stories and future visions for brain health
