Dr. Perlmutter says America spends a third of a trillion dollars a year on a largely preventable disease.
That's $380 billion every single year on Alzheimer's care.
He is a neurologist, and he says the money pours into one thing: protocols for managing patients who are already failing.
The system is built to find a pill that treats the disease once it arrives.
But Perlmutter says the disease is significantly preventable.
The metabolic damage that leads to it starts 20 to 30 years before you ever forget a name.
So the system spends a fortune treating the fire while ignoring every chance to stop the spark.
He says the money is staggering, but the deeper loss is the millions of families left watching a preventable disease unfold.

Joshua Macin says eating tuna fish once a week is enough to poison your body with mercury.
He spent 4 years in panic attacks, hearing voices, and unable to digest food before he discovered one of the causes was mercury.
His mercury results were so high the lab technician called him and asked how he was even alive.
He said eating tuna played a big role in this.
Macin says no one should be eating tuna, and most people have no idea that a single weekly serving is enough to load the body with mercury over time.
He says mercury will:
• Trap toxins in your cells so they stop working
• Tigger panic attacks
• Cause brain fog and reduced mental clarity
He says mercury hides in your tissues and organs, which is why a urine test only catches the most recent exposure.
Joshua Macin says five Zoom calls in a row can make you feel like you have an actual disease.
He calls it "digital overload".
And he's felt it in his own body.
After a day of back-to-back video calls, he says he gets heavy, achy joints, and headaches that feel exactly like the start of an illness.
For a long time he blamed the mold or the heavy metals.
Then he realized the calls themselves were doing it.
Macin says the human nervous system reacts to constant digital input like it is being physically slapped, and the body has not evolved to handle it.
His fix is one hour a day fully offline, grounded in the real world around him.

Joshua Macin says ketotifen is the reset button for a body stuck in fight or flight.
It helped calm his body down when nothing else on earth could.
Macin spent four years in constant panic attacks, unable to eat a piece of spinach without his belly bloating.
The drug is a mast cell stabilizer.
It works by telling your mast cells to stop overreacting to everything you eat.
Here's how it went for him:
He started on 1mg 4x/day 20 minutes before meals for 60 days. Then you double the dose to 2mg for 4x/day.
He says the first two weeks are rough due to side effects.
After about two months, you'll feel the benefits.
You can feel anxious, tired, and strange, vivid dreams and all. Most people quit right there.
But he says if you push through that window, it starts working what feels like miracles.
His nervous system finally calmed down, he could eat real food again, and he says his clients see the same turnaround.
Macin is clear he is not a doctor and says no one should try this without one.
But he calls it the thing that brought him back from being a walking dead man.

Dr. Perlmutter says 28% of Americans carry a gene variant that raises a dangerous brain chemical.
He is a neurologist, and he carries the variant himself.
It's called MTHFR.
If you have it, your body struggles to keep a compound called homocysteine in check. High homocysteine is tied to a higher risk of cognitive decline.
The unsettling part is how hidden it is. You can carry this your whole life and never know, unless you look at your genetic panel.
But Perlmutter says the fix is almost insultingly simple. The right form of B vitamins helps your body clear that compound back down.
He says it's one hole plugged in a leaky roof. There are others, but every plug counts.

Erwan Le Corre says you can train natural movement like a martial art, and there's no limit to how good you get.
Watch a toddler. They squat, climb, hang, and crawl without a single lesson. Le Corre says that's the same raw instinct a fighter starts with before any training.
A fighter takes that instinct and trains it for years into real mastery. He says you can do the exact same thing with the way your body moves.
Train the way a martial artist trains, and the strength follows on its own.
"There's no end to how good you can become at those natural movement abilities."
You were never meant to stop.

Erwan Le Corre says modern comfort is destroying your health.
Le Corre is a natural movement expert who spent his life studying how the body was built to live.
He believes modern life is the problem.
• You sit most of the day
• Your body never gets a break from it
• You eat food that comes out of a package
• You breathe indoor air and coat your skin in chemicals without thinking twice
And what he says is worse is that it's everywhere around us.
You can't avoid this unless you're in a rural area.
All of it disrupts your biology from within.
He that's why he calls modern life a silent killer.
The solution isn't to flee to the woods, but expose yourself back to natural environment your body craves.

Dr. Perlmutter says the most prescribed Alzheimer's drug doesn't work, and patients on it may decline faster.
He is a neurologist whose own father died of the disease, so he doesn't say this lightly.
The drug targets a brain chemical called acetylcholine.
For decades, doctors were taught it was the answer.
But Perlmutter points to a University of Alabama review of every study on this class of drug.
The finding was brutal.
The drug didn't slow the disease at all, and patients taking it declined faster than those who took nothing.
Yet it's still handed out as the go-to treatment today.
Perlmutter says the gold standard is supposed to be peer-reviewed science.
Here, the science says this isn't working.

Robert Kennedy Jr. just revealed that Wi-Fi radiation causes cancer.
He said it on Joe Rogan and represents hundreds of patients who have brain tumors caused by it.
The tumors are glioblastomas—one of the deadliest forms of brain cancer.
Kennedy says they always appear on the same side of the head where the patient held their phone.
But cancer isn't even the worst effect.
Kennedy says Wi-Fi radiation opens up the blood-brain barrier, allowing every toxin already in your body to cross into brain tissue:
• Glyphosate from food
• Microplastics from water
• Flame retardants from furniture
Researchers who published these findings called it "leaky brain." The US government responded by suppressing the research and shutting down funding.
Kennedy says tens of thousands of studies document the danger.
Russia developed Wi-Fi radiation as a weapon. Russian schools ban cell phones. Their allowed radiation levels are a tiny fraction of what the US permits.
Kennedy sued the FCC over this. The court sided with him.
His recommendations:
• Never sleep with your phone nearby
• Never hold your phone against your head
• Never carry your phone in a breast pocket
The science exists. The government chose to bury it.
— Robert Kennedy Jr. (@RobertKennedyJr) on JRE (@joerogan)
The part they (and you) are not admitting is that wireless radiation from smartphones, Wifi and masts IS a carcinogenic toxin. Very clever really but also extremely damaging to children, until they admit this. Read also Late Lessons Early Warnings @westreeting

Dr. Roger Seheult just revealed one of the biggest studies on sunlight.
A massive Swedish study followed 30,000 women for over 20 years and found that those who actively sought sun exposure had dramatically lower death rates from cancer, heart disease, and all causes.
The shocking part?
Sun avoiders had roughly double the overall mortality.
Even heavy smokers who got plenty of sun had similar death rates to non-smokers who avoided it.
Sunlight appears to extend life through vitamin D, nitric oxide, and immune support - yet we're still told to hide from it. Are you getting enough sun?
— Dr. Roger Seheult (@RogerSeheult) on Steven Bartlett’s (@StevenBartlett) DOAC podcast
Before you bullish-on-peptides folks inject melanotan, make sure you do a web search to look at some before and after photos…!
Here is a case where unless there’s a *real clinical need* I highly recommend you intelligently use sunlight instead.
Dr. Perlmutter says being a type 2 diabetic raises your Parkinson's risk by about 45%.
He is a neurologist, and he says this link is the reason researchers started testing a diabetes drug against Parkinson's in the first place.
For a long time, Parkinson's was treated as a problem of one brain chemical. Give the patient a drug to manage the tremor, and that was the plan.
But Perlmutter says the diabetes connection points somewhere deeper.

If you take Adderall or coffee to power through your day, you are shortchanging energy from your future self.
Joshua Macin is the founder of Detox Dudesand has worked with thousands of high performers who reach the top while destroying their health to get there.
He says they're all on stimulants.
He believes the high feels like free energy, but it never comes without a cost.
You are pulling it straight from your "reserve tank", the energy your organs were saving to keep you running.
Then tomorrow comes and you are empty, so you reach for the stimulant again. The cycle repeats while the damage builds underneath.
Macin says this is the trap of the modern era.
People grind this way, make a lot of money, and wreck their health to get it.

Dr. Perlmutter says 40% of American teenagers are already setting the stage for Alzheimer's.
He is a neurologist, and he says that number should stop you cold.
Four in ten American adolescents are now either pre-diabetic or full-on diabetic.
Perlmutter says that broken blood sugar in the teenage years is laying the groundwork for brain disease decades down the road.
Here's why.
The metabolic damage behind Alzheimer's begins 20 to 30 years before any memory symptoms show up.
A diabetic teenager isn't facing a problem now, but they may be facing one at 80, 70 or even as early as 50 depending on the severity.
Perlmutter says this is exactly why prevention has to start young.
The clock starts long before anyone is worried about it.

Wim Hof says breath work and cold exposure are the cure for the world's number one killer.
He says heart attacks happen because you cannot see the condition of your heart until it fails.
By the time the symptoms appear, the damage is done.
Most people are walking around with a failing heart without knowing it.
At age 66, Hof tested his heart condition through a cardiologist in Toronto.
His heart measured the biological age of an 18-year-old.
"Cardiovascular related diseases is killer number one in the world. We got the app now. Anybody can see his condition before the damage happens."
Hof developed an app with the cardiologist that uses your fingertip on the phone camera to measure your heart's biological age through three breathing rounds.
He says any person can now see their heart condition before a heart attack ever happens.

Wim Hof says you should always go into the cold first and the sauna second.
He says the order most people use, sauna first and cold plunge after, is the opposite of what builds real adaptation.
"The mistake is that people go first into the sauna and then into the cold because you passively become warm."
When you go into the cold first, three things activate in your body that the sauna never touches:
• Your neural pathways get stronger
• Your brain stem fires up thermogenesis
• Your adrenal axis releases inflammation-fighting adrenaline
Hof says cold is what builds the body, while heat is what comforts it after the work is done.

Dr. Perlmutter says diabetics on one GLP-1 drug had a 69% lower Alzheimer's risk than those on insulin.
He is a neurologist, and he says this number tells a deeper story than the "new wonder drug."
The drug was semaglutide, the same class as the popular weight-loss shots.
In the study he cites, diabetics taking it had dramatically lower Alzheimer's risk than diabetics on insulin.
Perlmutter warns this isn't a sign that everyone should run out for the drug.
He says the lesson here is understanding why it worked. And that was because it fixed metabolism.
They improve insulin function, calm inflammation, and support the mitochondria in your cells.
So the real message is the one he keeps returning to:
Alzheimer's was a metabolic problem all along.

Joshua Macin says he released hundreds of worms, and he has the photos to prove it.
Before any of those worms came out, his US parasite test told him he was completely clean.
He didn't believe it.
His gut was destroyed and something was clearly living inside him.
When he finally treated himself the right way, the first thing to come out was a roundworm the size of an earthworm.
He says that was the death that had been inside him. Then came hundreds more.
Macin says we are told parasites are a third world problem and that we are cleaner here.
He says that is a lie.
They are just as common in America, and our tests are too broken to catch them.

Wim Hof says depression is caused by inflammation in your body, not by a chemical imbalance in your brain.
He says every modern disease starts in the same place. Inflammation builds up in the body over time, and depression is what happens when that inflammation reaches the brain.
"All these diseases are based in inflammation. Depression is also caused by inflammation, and we are able to bring it down."
Hof says his breath work brings down inflammation directly through three pathways:
- Activates the autonomic nervous system
- Improves the glymphatic system in the brain
- Releases adrenaline that reduces inflammation
He says this is why people who do the breathing for six weeks often report depression lifting on its own.
The mood improvement is not the cause but the result of inflammation finally clearing out of the body.

Novak Djokovic says breathing is the most underrated skill in elite performance.
He uses conscious breathing before every important point of every match he plays.
He says it's the one tool that instantly brings him back into the present moment.
"It works on any level for anybody in any field of life. Just be conscious of the breath, being present."
Djokovic says most people take breathing for granted because we do it automatically.
The moment you make it conscious, your brain stops being impulsive and you start to see things from a different perspective.
When asked for the three lessons he would leave the world with, his answer was simple.
1) Love fully
2) Live freely
3) Breathe deeply

If your knees, hips, or lower back hurt and you want to do something about it, start with taking your shoes off.
Coach Chong has spent over a decade researching fascia and how the foot connects to the rest of the body.
He says the bone in your foot needs to feel the hardness of the ground to stimulate proper alignment and growth.
When you wear cushioned shoes, the bone stops getting that signal.
The bone structure weakens over time, and the joints above it start to compensate.
This is why people with no obvious injury still have chronic joint issues for years.
The cause isn't the joint.
The cause is the foot that stopped sensing the ground decades ago.
Most people are wondering why their joints hurt while wearing the exact thing causing it.

Emily McDonald says optimistic women live up to 20% longer than pessimistic women.
McDonald is a neuroscientist with a PhD who has built one of the largest neuroscience-focused audiences online.
She references a Harvard study that followed 70,000 women across multiple decades and screened them for optimism versus pessimism in the way they communicated.
The women who scored as optimistic lived 11 to 20% longer than the women who scored as pessimistic.
McDonald says the mechanism is chronic stress.
Negative and pessimistic thinking generates stress, and chronic stress ages every system in the body.
There is also research on loving-kindness meditation showing it can lengthen telomeres, the protective endings of your chromosomes that shrink as you age.
Your thoughts are signals your body uses to decide how fast to age you.

Emily McDonald says your brain waves sync up with the people you spend the most time around.
McDonald is a neuroscientist with a PhD.
She references studies showing that when two people are in conversation, their brain wave patterns begin to align.
With best friends, the sync is so strong that researchers can see it on a brain scan.
This is the reason close friends finish each other's sentences.
Their brains are running on the same rhythm.
McDonald says this also applies to who you follow online.
The accounts you scroll every day are training your brain waves to match their patterns. Your feed isn't entertainment. It is neural conditioning.
If the people in your physical and digital life are anxious or pessimistic, your brain is being trained into the same state.
Curate your feed and your friends.
They are rewiring you in real time.
