If it feels like everyone is talking about Ozempic, Wegovy, Zepbound, or Mounjaro these days, you’re not imagining things. What began as a treatment for type 2 diabetes has become a cultural phenomenon. Millions of people are now taking GLP-1 receptor agonists, primarily for weight loss, and demand has exploded worldwide. For many, these medications …

A recent analysis of participants in the FINGER study tracked about 600 people (average age around 69) for 2 years. Those with better muscle strength and function at the start of the study as measured through tests like grip strength and chair stand had better global cognition, memory, and executive function at the end after correcting for variables like age and comorbidities. However, in some recent publications, there’s a signal that building leg muscle may be especially key to brain health.

But a major new study in the journal Science provides some of the strongest evidence yet that we continue to make new neurons into adulthood — particularly in a memory-critical part of the brain called the hippocampus. This finding not only shifts a century-old perspective on human brain biology but also opens exciting possibilities for enhancing brain health across the lifespan.

Indeed, some recent research suggests that improvements in memory from cognitive training are driven by increases in BDNF, and it may also be the case that part of the benefit provided to people from antidepressants is through BDNF increases. The good news is that independent of pharmaceuticals, research suggests basic lifestyle changes can increase BDNF levels

This article reviews the latest science on clinically studied dietary nutrients that may help aid in slowing brain aging and protecting our brain function over our lives.

Objectives: Brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) plays an essential role in brain and metabolic health. The fact that higher concentrations are associated with improved cognitive performance has resulted in numerous intervention trials that aim at elevating BDNF levels. This systematic re …

Background: Neurodegenerative diseases (NDDs) are multifactorial disorders frequently associated with gut dysbiosis, oxidative stress, and inflammation; however, the pathophysiological mechanisms remain poorly understood. Methods: Using untargeted mass spectrometry-based metabolomics a …

How Strength Training Boosts the Brain Get my Free Guide: 11 Science-Backed Steps to Help Boost Memory and Prevent Dementia https://www.austinperlmutter.com/memoryguide Full blog: https://www.austinperlmutter.com/post/how-weightlifting-boosts-your-brain Regular exercise lowers the risk of brain issues like depression and Alzheimer’s disease. Resistance training should also be considered for its brain health benefits. Benefits of Strength Training for Brain Health: 1. Better brain health in those who engage in resistance training. 2. Improved brain function, particularly in the elderly, from starting weightlifting. 3. Cognitive improvements in people with cognitive decline after resistance training. 4. Decreased depressive symptoms observed through resistance training. 5. Regulation of Metabolic Balance and Immunity seem to be key Tips for Effective Resistance Training: Start light and gradually increase weight. Consider working with a trainer for guidance. Group classes can boost motivation and provide social benefits. Resistance bands offer a versatile and effective alternative. Pay attention to your body to avoid injuries. Include leg exercises for maximum benefit. Ensure adequate protein intake and consider creatine supplementation for muscle and brain health.

This research is literally mind-bending By Austin Perlmutter, MD KEY POINTS: How Psychedelics May Impact the Brain Influence on Neurotransmitters and Receptors: Psychedelics have a significant impact on neurotransmitters, with the serotonin receptor 2A playing a central role. They can also affect other neurotransmitters like GABA, dopamine, norepinephrine, and glutamate. Changes in Brain Activation Patterns: Psychedelics alter brain activation patterns, particularly in the default mode network (
