A declining mind is one of the scariest things I can imagine. Left unchecked, I’ve seen the devastating effects this process can have on individuals and their families. But we now know there is so much that can be done to prevent and even reverse Alzheimer’s and dementia and save people from a foggy future.

I know some of you may have had to reread that—yes, Alzheimer’s reversal is real. The latest research is showing some amazing results that give us a new perspective of hope, even (or especially) if you’re genetically predisposed.

Today on The Dhru Purohit Podcast, Dhru talks to our friend Dr. David Perlmutter about the latest findings in the field of Alzheimer’s and dementia.

As someone who is on the computer a lot, I realized all that screen time was negatively affecting how well I slept. I started learning about blue light and how it disrupts the body’s natural melatonin production, so I decided to try blue-light blocking glasses throughout the day to see if they helped—and they totally did. I love the blue-light blocking glasses made by BLUblox. BLUblox glasses reduced my digital eye strain and dramatically improved my sleep, and I have more energy throughout the day.
