I had a SPECT scan in 2022. It cost about 5k, but the results changed my life. A doctor from the clinic interpreted the results, then coached me on what changes to make during several follow-up sessions (included with that initial cost). I’m still doing the work: stopped drinking, got off damaging prescriptions, go to therapy, work out, take supplements and go to hyperbaric oxygen treatments. If they hadn’t seen the areas of concern, I’d be on the road to dementia. Dr. Amen rocks. It was worth the investment.

Rich you're so cool and you're a personal role model for me. Thanks for your openness about your ADHD & previous addiction problems. I also have ADHD & it's hard to relate to with other men as they're almost always very closed off and walled up but you're so honest & true. I admire that.

Who wants to see Rich's brain? I do! Such a great episode. As someone with [very] limited resources [at the moment] I am so grateful for a generous podcast like this [thank you both!]. I love that you give advice that even I can apply to my life right now. [I'm a 58 yo woman. A little late to the party but I'm showing up now. Every. Single.

I 'changed my mind' [truly didn't believe or know that i could] recently and appreciate the generosity of people like the two of you who have been helpful guides for me while I navigate out of very stark darkness.

I agree with you to get a good analysis you need money for this scan. But I disagree if you think you need it to begin to heal. It’s a red flag if you need a $4k scan and result to tell you that your lifestyle isn’t a good one. There are plenty of different ways you can begin to heal, but for many it will be hard to stick to. Will the results come slow, yes. Is it boring, yes. Is it exciting, no. Will you face doubt, yes. You will question yourself 1000 times along the way and we need to stick to it. Have some grace. It’s not a switch and everything turns perfect. It’s hard, but so worth it.

The techniques and equipment he uses for diagnostics (SPECT) have been scrutinized by other professionals. It's not my field of expertise so I can't comment on that. I, however, have tried his treatment advice with regards to specific subtypes of ADHD, and it actually worked. I don't tolerate any form of stimulants whether it is caffeine, methylphenidate, amphetamine, nicotine etc. at all. The ADD drugs did squat to help me out it just gave me more problems. Then I read what Dr Daniel Amen had to say about the different form of ADHD from his experience. Let's just say that I'll be finished with my PhD in Biochemistry degree by the end of this year and I'm in the best mental, emotional, physical and spiritual state I've been in my life...Without any pharmaceutical drugs!

Because he was vet he got a discount and it was the first time after all the years and many meds that I realized there was not only addiction issues, but possible traumatic head injury from all the years of wrestling and gymnastics. I would show these images to his psych doctors and they just didn't get it or really care. It was 5 years of struggling and working as a family to get him sober and back to us after being homeless and on his own. He is doing so much better! Of course still on 4 meds which I am trying my hardest to get his nutrition under control to eliminate some. I am hopeful that we can come back to Amen Clinic and see his improvement which I think would be even more of a motivator.

I’ve learned a lot from many of your podcasts, but I don’t think I’ve ever experienced one as powerful and informative as this one. Thank you 🙏

Dear Rich Roll, I have watched countless of your podcasts over the years but this one really got to me... Powerful information and such a warmhearted Dr. Amen and you. Thank you big time for this interview and all you do. You DO make the world a better place.

The most powerful, thought provoking podcast I have listened to. Thank you both.

I’m grateful for this helpful conversation, much appreciated 🙏

I discovered you a few months ago and I have to tell you I absolutely LOVE your channel. The guests that you have on are quite honestly amazing and Dr. Amen is a doctor I knew about many years ago when my daughter was diagnosed with ADHD and I wanted to hear what Dr. Amen has to say about Alzheimer's and Dementia. I cannot begin to tell you how much you have helped in my life by bringing Dr. Amen and Dr. Mosconi in my life. Thank you for your wonderful channel and no, you don't interrupt too much😄

fascinating topic. Dr. Amen is spot on. we need to love our brains and do the best we can to keep healthy. i think they need to start in schools to teach the importance of brain health. thx Rich and Dr. Amen!

Rich, it's so frustrating for me to hear anyone say, "Don't be scared." Don't be this or that, feel this or that. It is not wrong to be scared. You already know from years of experience to feel what you feel wholly, accept it, and THEN follow through with your actions, whatever they may be, by way of meditation, prayer, counsel, education, or straight up time. One of my least favorite things to have any one say to me is, "This is easy." when teaching me something new and I'm stressed. Appreciating our system's responses instead of overriding or diminishing them saves us more suffering in the long run. Good luck, whatever that is.

Thank you both so very much! Loved the conversation. Very helpful.

I really love and appreciate rich, he doesn't interrupt too much. I enjoyed this interview and I learned alot in this interview

I love Dr. Amen. I wish there were MORE of him.

Fascinating. Thank you!

Wonderful interview thanks!!!

Great and very insightful conversation thank you and well done for the effort in putting this information out there. I have never really paid much attention to my brain health and like what you and your guest said, this is largely due to the fact that because its not a visible organ most of us tend to ignore it but with all I have learnt from this conversation I will start giving my brain health the attention it deserves. Thank you again.

In 1992, I lived for 15 years with a TBI; Dr. Amen's book gave me hope and guidance and knowledge since then. 32 years later... what a journey. Lost my trust in the 'normal' medical profession since: not interested, not thinking specifically, but arrogant 95% of them. Thank you Dr. Amen for keeping up, keeping going. Much love.

Well I've had my brain scanned a number of times as I needed nine hours of brain surgery in 2017 to remove a tumour. The tumour in my left frontal lobe led to significant changes in my personality - I was pretty crazily sexually promiscuous, with comprised sense of boundaries and very impulsive, and had periods tearful and feeling suicidal. I had no idea it was brain tumour related until I had an epileptic fit on the bus on the way to work! I have a far calmer mind and lifestyle now! It is a scary realisation that you're not in control of your thoughts , emotions and behaviour when the brain is compromised. I'm mega careful lifestyle wise now to be as health conscious as possible - vegan whole food diet, meditation, and regular exercise (strength, cardio and flexibility) and minimal alcohol. Dr Amen talks a lot of sense!

I love this guy! Yes Dr Amen

For the last near decade I've been working on the idea that dementia is akin to self-fulfilling prophesy. The vast majority of us have long unattended personal and generational trauma, each one layering upon the last. Socially and often culturally, we're taught to get over it, move on and are shamed or abandoned if we don't. Our WHOLE LIVES are a practice of avoidance and being submerged in environments that support it. We are distracted into fantasy, nonreality, and then are surprised when we see that our brains have adapted to the training. We ask for escape from suffering by any means. Be careful what you ask for? No matter how bad the present is, turning away from it brings more suffering for ourselves and GENERATIONS TO COME. Feed the brain any story, and it will eventually become reality.

@richroll - I honestly am so worried also. After being an alcoholic, the one thing I have been doing is focusing on it but then I slip because I lose hope. It’s 100% conflicting.

Great information. I tried getting my son scanned when he was younger as he would head bang and became very angry. No one would do it..all they did was want to put him on meds thank you for this information.

I got my brain scanned there 5 years ago and also did a follow up visit recently. The scans are insightful but it is also not an exact science and what they suggest after the scans is very much trial and error and not really at all scientific. They work based on your symptoms and how you respond in your experience to the supplements or meds and then adjustments are made. Exactly what psychiatrists do, It is all very subjective. I am not sure they have any real data or can exactly know how their clients doing. It is in the right direction though that the field should go to actually study the brain but at the end of the day it's all very complex and the supplements are all coming and going. They also suggest people do functional medicine and are big on mold and heavy metals tests etc and that is another field that is really all so new and could be easy to be misguided. I noticed recently the supplements they suggested are totally new and different in my case for 5 years ago so it's very much an evolving thing. I do not like the diets they recommend for that I prefer the Sharzai team and sticking with an oil free whole food plant based diet for heart health is also the #1 thing one can do for the brain. It's all about blood flow. My case they told me I had healed the bipolar that I thought I had for decades by doing good food, meditation and lifestyle. And my brain showed more ADHD and some anxiety. That was very eye opening for me and totally different focus but at the end of the day is really true? Perhaps not but it's a direction to focus on. Amen mentioned J Bieber...that they determined he is not bipolar now. That could be inaccurate and I think there is some risk in making diagnosis and changing diagnosis off of theories about brain scans. Hope that helps...get the scan but shop around to decide how to deal with it.

This made my week!

It's important to not lose focus of whatever topic we are focused on, we didn't get to hear the end of how dementia happens to people, no blame to anyone, sometimes the brain reacts to a question if it sounds interesting, it forget about the main topic and acts out of emotion, discards what is in mind, and engages in a different direction unnoticeable, and it gets out of alignment with what we are talking about at that moment, if that make sense. better structure perhaps? what is the disease, what causes it and how to cure it.
