Here are some of my key takeaways; 1-Stay Social (Spend time with family and friends) 2-Exercise Regularly (this one is the most important one. Move your body daily with activities you enjoy) 3-Cold Showers (give yourself an adrenaline boost and potentially improve your overall well-being) 4-Practice Mindfulness (Meditate, do yoga, or practice deep breathing) 5-Keep Learning (Read, or learn new skills, keep your mind active, engage in Cognitive Activities) 6-Eat Well (Mediterranean Diet is healthy, Eat fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats like Olive oil) 7-Sleep Enough (Aim for 7-9 hours of good sleep every night, clears out toxins and garbage stuff in the brain) Edit : Hey folks, I know some of you might think you've heard this all before, but I highly recommend watching the whole video. Dr. Wendy offers great research, examples, and insights into why we should follow these health tips. For instance, we all know smoking is bad, but understanding the reasons behind it can make a big difference. When you learn why certain habits are beneficial and see the evidence, it helps you follow this advice more consciously. I hope my takeaways from the video provide you with useful insights, but I 'STRONGLY' suggest watching the entire video to fully understand the importance and depth of her insights on brain health and how to keep it healthy through proper diet, exercise, and sleep. Stay healthy! 💜

The wrong kind of people don't help you with not feeling lonely. They can make you even lonelier. I think when addressing this emotions, one has to be true to themselves about their honesty feelings.

Six plus years ago, I decided to quit social media, and since then, I've found myself engaging in deep internal conversations that often lead me to solve problems. It's fascinating to observe this mental process and appreciate the complex computations happening in our brains that ultimately lead to solutions. It's like listening to an inner dialogue unfold and witnessing how our brains can systematically reach conclusions and insights.

At almost age 67 I have been going to the gym now 4x a week. It has changed everything. Everything. I have a very sore heel so I cant do Zumba but I do weights and rowing. Free weights are the fastest way (for me) to look better. That and diet. I am hooked. All of my health problems are slowly fading away. At one point I was seeing 4-5 specialists a month.

So sorry you had to suffer like this. So your story is very similar to my experience. December 2022, my Mom passed away from dimentia and other causes. She was diagnosed in the August. But I was doing the running around, sitting at the hospital when she had seizures, seeing to her needs, working, running my household, and 3 children at school. When she died my nervous system took a huge knock. Im still trying to recover. My thumbs locked, and I couldn't move them, I had numb fingers and still experience this now but slowly recovering. I suffer from major anxiety. I am taking the vitamin B, omega and lions mane. Recovery has been the slowest process. I do weights which I love , but have to keep it low kg as I developed an issue with my wrist, did xrays and Doctor claims its inflammation but it looks like a bone growth. So I now have a bicycle. My goal is to get my body and in perfect condition. And now I know I have to get my brain in even better condition Appreciate the podcast. ❤

There's a lot of data left to chance in her studies ( and most ) It may be true that a wide amount of data indicates something...but cause and effect is more complex. To your case......my mother lived to 97 but never exercised at all or played any kind of sports...ever . She did however come from a long family line where the youngest died at 94. Is it the exercise ?......or is it the happiness ? There was a famous 80 year study that concluded "happy healthy people live longer "....but it's reasoning is flawed......it could also have concluded that sick people tend to be unhappy....and sick people live shorter lives. The happiness may not have been a causal factor but a side effect of not being sick .

Dementia sucks! It's so sad how debilitating mental illness is. As a caregiver, you want them to "try harder" but they simply can't. It's like asking a computer with a glitch or bug to try harder. The brain just can't process better than it is doing, making it more and more difficult for the sufferer to try to mitigate the symptoms. For example, you try to encourage someone with dementia to change their diet, to get more intense exercise, and to pick up new interests to learn about (especially those that involve physical coordination as well as retaining new information.) But then they can't understand what you just told them or they forget it. You encourage them to develop systems and routines to help them. They can't remember to do that or what their new routine is. It's very frustrating. As a caregiver, it's tough not to just give up. Good luck to you and your mom and to everyone else going through this as a sufferer or caregiver (who suffers the disease as well, but in different ways.)

I now hold regular classes in science & Chess playing at a local senior center. My memory has declined some, but I still feel sharp; like to make others laugh & I live pain-free 90% of the time.

Thats why you see the threat as real bcoz it is real in a hypothetical scenario it could happen ..and what would you do then its what the mind is thinking...bcoz your life is too secure and so it focuses on the high risk scenarios ..bcoz it can afford it ..what else would it think when everything else is good? It just obsesses on the unsolved potential future danger.i was always conscious the danger is not now but what bugged me was the fact it can potentially happen...and since it can because it already has happennee once then why can't I find a solution.

I agree. Also don t forget to drink water. Dehydration leads to brain fog

28:47 as a former server at a restaurant, we had something like a memory palace going on when taking orders without noting anything down. we could recall every part of the order just by replaying the conversation with each guest in each turn. the orders werent listed in our memory just the "story" of our interaction.

This is power-packed and delivered softly. Thank you, Steven, for bringing Dr. Wendy to share her years of experience as a neuroscientist with us. My notepad received a lot of tapping this evening. ❤ Next is Mel Robbins' episode. I need to see that too before others.

Unfathomable grief. I never could have understood the depths to which I could experience emotion like the grief I felt when my healthy, loving, adventurous adult son died unexpectedly a little over a year and a half ago. At the time, the only way I could describe it was like floating alone out in a vast ocean where I knew not the depth, the size, when the storms would rage, what monsters lurked below, or if I would ever stumble to shore again. Mr. Bartlett asks Dr. Suzuki if she would have taken a pill to dull the sense of grief. In the aftermath of my son dying, I talked to other grieving parents who turned to alcohol, medication, etc. - anything to give their minds a break from the incredible torment of having to face a future where your child is physically gone. But for me, I consciously chose to avoid all that and feel every bit of the pain of the experience. I laid out in a field and wept into the dirt. I roamed the woods. I sobbed in the shower. Thankfully, in the years prior to his death, I was on a bit of a spiritual journey and had found my way to mindfulness. There were points during my grief where part of me could step back during those wailing and keening episodes and see myself - this human being in such deep sadness and confusion, desperately trying to figure out how to move forward - and I could feel compassion and love for her. And it dawned on me that even in this unimaginable torment, there is a certain beauty to the human experience. I don't know if that would have come to me had I been trying to take the edge off of my pain with medication or alcohol. Those kinds of days still come but mercifully not as often. That vast ocean I was lost in has permeated my being. Part of that grief water is in me, and I will carry it for the rest of my time here. But at least I feel like I've found some footing. And that compassion I found for myself has opened me up to a much deeper level of compassion for others that is on an entirely other plane of understanding our connectedness. Pain and suffering are universal things of the human condition that bind us together. And when you truly come to understand that, we'll it's like in the poem "Kindness" by Naomi Shihab Nye..."Then it is only kindness that makes sense anymore."

My mom lived 103+ years. She walked 5 miles to work and then from work for years. Had 7 living children, She stopped driving at 85.. at my insistence, but walked every day with her sister for miles after children were grown. .. walked, avid reader and active in community, bingo, playing different card games, cooking for groups, traveling. When she couldn't walk as well she sat, did word games. Puzzles.. She had general memory problems but never forgot a grandchild, her family, and friends' names. Refused most drugs, except BPressure and cholesterol meds, though I forced that.. vaccines were stopped, no vitamins or even aspirin. She was an insomniac.. which she blamed us 7 kids! Doctors agreed that she knew more about staying alive than most of us would ever know. Loved garlic, mushrooms, olive oil, and real food. She was a sunworshipper.. had 3 bad weeks when she decided she'd had enough and just wouldn't get out of bed. She did it her way

My guess is that walking is the best exercise overall and can only help you slow or prevent dementia. However, I also have a feeling that more intense exercise once or twice a week may be equally or even more beneficial to your brain than just regular walking. You may not be able to sprint anymore, but is there something else you could do that would raise your heart rate more and thus circulate blood even more? Maybe squats or shoulder press exercises or lap swimming? Or dance?

⁠@@brushstroke3733I completely agree that higher intensity is probably warranted. I don’t mean a 75 year old should be doing the same as a 35 year old. Just whatever would be considered intense for that individual. I’ve had two family members pass from dementia/Alzheimer’s. Before we knew of their diagnoses, they were escape artists, wandering miles from home to complete what was in their minds, important errands. In reality, their missions had no real importance. They would walk at distances and paces almost unbelievable for their ages. This was a common occurrence with one of them even after she went into assisted living. Yet, they both continued to decline until neither of them could walk at all or feed themselves. I’ve just gotten my mom (70) into riding a stationary bike daily and I’m really working to encourage her to do at least light resistance training.

I was a bit surprised when she said that they don’t know what is responsible for dementia.. Life style is not only exercising, but what we eat. I already heard from other scientists (don’t remember names now)…that our guts are the second organ after the brain.. the most important part of our nervous system. They are not connected, but they communicate throughout our microbes. Our good microbes in the guts are crucial for our health and decides our fate. Bad microbes are responsible for our health and mental illness that includes dementia.They made experiment in 2013..? when they sterilised mouse guts . Mouse with Parkinson’s disease and that mouse was cured from this disease. There was a woman who had beginning first set of Alzheimer and they changed her microbes as well. They transplanted (poop)… from a healthy person into her guts. She got much better very quickly. So it looks like what we eat…. is our life style:))

Being a people please means my interactions with people is very important to me. Wow! Makes so much sense. And frames it beautifully compared to the usual negativity about it. Helps me understand better my anxiety around it. Which is also complex. Love this AHA moment for myself.

Thank goodness I have dogs! They get me out twice a day for 40 minutes in the morning & 40 in the evening. Good exercise and great talking with all the dog people. I’m 73, other than arthritis in my knees, have no other health problems, take no drugs, not even OTC. I eat well, don’t drink or smoke, never have and follow Dr Gundry’s Plant Paradox eating plan.

Dr. Wendy Suzuki is so so right about everything she said I mean come on she is a professor in neuroscience. I appreciate this woman a lot And I appreciate how far human science has come. It's absolutely marvelous so glad I watched this video❤

Another excellent video. I am quite an extreme introvert and now in my 60s but spent decades trying to fit in with what society expected and used to worry that I would suffer emotionally because I did not have friends. I became anxious and slightly depressed so saw an excellent therapist who said that I was anxious and depressed because I was going against my innate nature and I should embrace, appreciate and start loving my ability to be blissfully happy when alone. It changed my life. I had always preferred my own company from a very young age; hated parties and family gatherings but continually tried to fit in. I now know it was damaging to do that. I have a couple of friends and quite a few acquaintances but always, without exception, feel happier, more relaxed and only truly myself when alone. I feel sorry for folk who are listening to this who are worrying that they may get dementia because they are lonely. when they could be happy embracing their solitude, not loneliness. Please remember that we are all different and not everyone will benefit from having friends and more importantly, they will not suffer because they are alone. I would love Dr Wendy Suzuki's opinion on this subject.

I had the same thought. I am 67, married with adult children and so I spend a lot of my time alone (husband is away all day at work). I am content to pursue my own interests. I'm glad to be surrounded by my children at family gatherings, but feel exhausted afterwards even though I have a great time with them. So I was a little worried about not having constant interactions, or seeing friends often. I like my time alone with my funny little shih tzu. I do need to exercise more though.

I don’t have any close bonds with people simply because of how my life has unfolded, I know people and enjoy my time with them, say at work in the office, but my life does not revolve around people. It does however have something special. I have a strong connection to myself, my higher self and my source, call it god. I have A powerful spiritual life. I very rarely ever feel alone. I feel full and at peace most of the time.. I cultivated this deep relationship later in life at 50yo. After a very tumultuous life of struggle, heartbreak, and loneliness got the best of me. I can now experience joy and happiness without depending on another person or animal companion . And I love that! It gives me a sense of power and complete freedom 🎉😊

There is a lot that can be said about love and loneliness. I do firmly believe that this is completely individual. Depending on heredity and upbringing etc. I had a great childhood, in a small village. There were few kids in my age there. The world was small in people, but big in freedom and nature. Then in school you naturally end up in larger and larger schools and classes. I never liked it. I always felt consumed by the constant social play and that led me to seek peace, freedom, solitude. Unfortunately there is a huge stigma in our society about this. We are constantly taught that "loneliness" is unhealthy, that you in fact should feel miserable and depressed if you are not a social person, if you don't have close friends, don't have a relationship. This causes people to feel a lot worse than they have to. Personally i almost never feel "lonely" although i'm almost always alone in my free time. The times that i do feel "lonely" is when it becomes impossible to disregard the stigmatisation, usually around the holidays. Not because of solitude, but because of the stigma. I'm 50 years old now. I have had periods of more friends and a long relationship. But i know my true nature. That is freedom.

I love how exited and happy Dr. Suzuki is to be talking about this topic.

I can deeply relate to Wendy, when she talked about her unfathomable grief after losing her dad, I lost my dad last year, and the amount of grief I felt was unbearable. I really realized at the end that the wisdom behind it was the sublime love I had for him.

This is a superb interview. As a retired combat veteran, scientist, aerospace and operational physician as well as psychiatrist, I heartily believe that this video is the BEST and most significant to watch by every human being in this world. It should be televised everywhere to spur conversation and make positive changes in our lives. Dr. Suzuki's down to earth, clear explanation of such complex topics was exceptionally simply logical, personally honest and hopeful. The world needs to see and heard this message more nowadays than ever. Her ability to relate medical complex topics back and forth from neuroanatomy, research data to then everyday life and human experience is the mark of a true genius. Furthermore, Steven, as always, your questions were so thoughtful and very relating to what anyone would ask. This video deserves an award for the improvement of the human condition (in my mind.. a Nobel Prize). Again, language may not truly express how great this video truly is; however, personally, this is a the best human exceptional learning video, that I have ever seen in my 65 yrs of living in this planet.. hands down.. a piece of art. I am sharing this video w/ my family, relatives, friends , including my patients. Bravo. Oraah, Semper Fi.

100%. I have seen extremely similar results with clients over the years in regards to the power of the nervous system. Learning how to regulate your nervous system can have incredibly positive results. Beautiful story. Exercise absolutely can greatly improve nervous system state, as long as it can be done without pain/dysfunction. This is only possible if you have strong activation/connectivity to muscular systems on a neuro level. For example, if you try to flex your bicep... do you feel the bicep? Or do you feel the shoulder? This is the problem. The brain does not have default connectivity to our physical systems like we would assume. This is also why exercises that PT's give that should work to strengthen imbalances, don't always work. The brain does not always have the ability to reconnect to weak/disconnected systems without powerful direct input to the nervous system directly.

I consider myself to have a very good memory. I remember a lot of things that happened 15-20 years ago, especially conversations with people. I recently got a math tutoring job (having had jobs in other fields before), and everything I teach is from what I learned 15 years ago as a student. This is how I applied association in my life: I always liked numbers, and when my parents would ask me to buy things from the store (pre-mobile phone era), I would remember the number of items and what my mom wanted to cook. This is how I memorized the items, so practice is very important to improve your memory. Nowadays, we rely so much on our phones that we don't need to memorize phone numbers, street names, or important dates because everything is saved in our phones. My advice is to use either novelty (the excitement of learning something new) or association for anything that seems difficult to memorize. If neither works, then repeat it until you know it. My son likes to enter the computer password every time he turns on the laptop, so I decided to change the password to my husband's phone number because knowing your parents' phone numbers is a safety measure for any child 😊

My Aunt just turned 100 she never exercised. She only walked to work when she was a school teacher. She is still very coherent and physically fit. She just walks slower. I asked her why didn't you exercise, she said, she didn't want to get injured. I believe a healthy longevity is about 3 areas lifestyle, genetics and luck!

so walking is not an exercise? What your body needs is any kind of consistent body movement. Also if you looked back at the kind of life your aunt lived as a child, you will realize they did not need exercise. So many things were not automated 100 years ago, people actively moved their bodies, even when doing home chores so there was no need to go to make shift body moving spaces call gyms like we do today. If she is 100 years then she must have been born in a time where there was barely any cars and no delivery guys to deliver everything to them at door steps. Our daily lives today are extremely sedentary! You can choose to spend the whole day in the house watching TV and the food will come to your door step!

Too bad she didn’t exercise she could have lived to 112

I have been listening to this interview over the last couple of days. All that was said is interesting and exciting and insightful. But this interview really had my heart when he started to ask about her spiritual beliefs. She said with the most beautiful smile, that she wanted and knew that there had to be MORE. More than what can be proven using the scientific method. And I believe her. I agree. Beautiful soul, God bless her. 💛❤

her tone and smile just shows her passion for this subject. love this professor

I loved the fact that she said that compassion is the most important trade in humankind.

I had meningitis many years ago and it affected my cognitive and motor skills. MRI shows my cerebellum was damaged and sort of shrunk? I asked a neurologist how to make it better he said none. It’s not like it’s a muscle that will get tougher when you workout…😢 Hearing Dr.Suzuki tonight and say otherwise, actually gives me hope. Thank you for the very informative and thoughtful talk!

You can train and improve your motor skills. I played football for some years but was lacking in motor skills. Then I practised Taekwondo for 3 years and it improved my skills and balance a lot. Returning to football I felt remarkable improvement. Also it has been proved that climbing and crawling on floors improve motor skills, which share part of the brain for functions of reading and comprehending. Children who walk to fast from birth sometimes also need to practise climbing and crawling to improve that part of the brain, which again improves their academic skills in School.

​@frankdux9254 I never heard that about crawling...but I have been hearing about grou ding lately, and when one is crawling the hands are 2 extra points of contact with earth...very interesting concept!

Yea new studies emphasize the importance of crawling while a baby for developing a particular old, brainstem region part of the brain. This who didnt get to crawl have a variety of issues later, including focus trouble. I dont know where the cerebellum is vs the hypocampus, but the hypo campus can grow (or shrink) in response to behavior &emotional thoughts. Not sure what if any other parts of brain can, too.

she is such a passionate lady.I have never been glued to a topic like today

this is one of the best videos and podcast’s i’ve ever seen! thank you so much to both of you. this woman is so inspiring and her energy is a true blessing to this earth 🙏🏼✨💝

He really is just so precious in that moment. Stephen is a special human. I love his insights, the long pauses he allows for space for his guests and his vulnerability.

Dr. Suzuki is an exceptional explainer. She speaks huge details without saying a lot.

This woman loves her work so much, you see it in the way she lights up when explaining why she chose neuroscience. loved this podcast

I've only just started but wanted to stop and say thanks Wendy! I always wondered and needed clarification. Things I have done to make my brain healthy is quit smoking, drink only on holidays, eat blueberries every day, eat nutritional yeast. I haven't been able to ever overcome my insomnia, my Achilles heel. Maybe limiting screen time can help me heal. Thanks again for all the valuable informational I'm about to consume!!

Wow, when she said she is Christian towards the end, and the fact that not everything that is real can be scientifically proven, I was in schock, a good shock. More and more scientists start to recognize that there is something out there bigger than us, and we.re talking here about the most logical minds on earth. This is such precious information, I want to talk my parents into exercising more, and also talk myself into that. Amazing podcast!!

I love that. You realise that exercise and all these things we do are great. But there are things they can't help you against that Jesus' power is more than enough for. Isaac Newton was also a Christian. 💙

I love listening to this woman. Her energy, enthusiasm and knowledge of her subject are contagious. PS my uncle, Tony Flynn , was one of the youngest London cabbies to pass the test for The Knowledge, back in the 80s.

I used to deliver Chinese food back in my 20s, before the existence of Door Dash, etc. There was something super satisfying about getting to know all the streets and addresses and routes in my small city. I imagine that attaining The Knowledge is extra super satisfying. When someone gives you an address and you immediately know the cross streets and best routes to get there (considering time of day and special event traffic for concerts, sporting events, etc.) you feel amazing!

One of the best guests yet on this show. She gives the impression of a very kind and compassionate person. Super interesting information.

Dr Wendy Suzuki is a very charming and compassionate Neuroscientist. God loves Dr Wendy Suzuki and so do we.

I loved this podcast. It was technical, compassionate, vulnerable, transparent, authentic, humble, incisive. From both Stephen and Dr Suzuki.

Easily one of the most enjoyable and a learning podcast. What a passionate and authentic sharing from Wendy.

I've been following your work for a long time and went to see you in Brisbane, you are really on top of the game! Great job Steven Bartlett and Team SB! Thank you for providing so much value to the community.

You have to make e excise a lifestyle. It may ebb & flow like a tide, but don't ever stop completely. The body recovers quickly from a sedentary state. Keep it moving 💯

My Mom died from dementia . She was taking water aerobics and walking in the park with my Dad . Gone by 78. My Dad lived until 92 no dementia . Passed away at 92. I was taking care of both of them . I did get cancer when my Mom had dementia. But cancer free 16 years and lost 22 pounds .

Are you saying that the exercise doesn't seem to matter?

@kittens135

23 күн бұрын

​@@jeremiahh.3383That would be jumping to conclusions. Excercise is crucial, but so is a good metabolic health, as in not having insuline resistence. People from blue zones don't really work out, but move throughout the day, have a social life and don't eat processed foods. And by excercise I don't mean going to a gym, but moderate movement all day long. By a social life I don't mean going to a golf court with other old people, but: still working, taking care of your family members, that kind of things.

I started viewing this channel this year and I must say that the growth in subscribers and the quality of content is ravishing!!! ❤ Congratulations 🎉

What a great conversation---the perfect & thoughtful questioner, & an on point activist eager to shed light on all she's been involved with from a micro community level to the world at large. More of the same, please.

I love her energy and love for neuroscience. She has a great smile and an infectious positivity that I think we all could use. Thank you Steven for having her on as a guest! This was very informative and I am always happy to be a part of these podcasts. My mother has dementia and it has been hard seeing her decline, too, so this episode hits at the heart of one of the biggest issues in our time right now. I hope this episode reaches people far and wide, and I hope this helps The Diary of a CEO gain even more attention and traction than ever before.
