Women and Brain Disease: How You Can Protect Your Brain

Why is it that women are almost twice as likely to develop Alzheimer’s disease, and what are the greatest risk factors associated with developing dementia? Today on SHE MD, Mary Alice and Dr. Aliabadi team up with Dr. Kellyann Niotis to explore what women can do to prevent cognitive decline.

Dr. Kellyann Niotis is one of the world's only preventative neurologists, specializing in personalized risk reduction for neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease, Lewy Body Dementia, and Parkinson’s disease.

In this episode, Dr. Niotis delves into known contributors to dementia and outlines her non-negotiable principles for maintaining brain health. Dr. Niotis walks our hosts through the way hormone fluctuations during menopause play a role in neurodegeneration and the critical health markers that signal red flags for neurologists. A strong advocate of the idea that "your genes are not your destiny," Dr. Niotis offers a wealth of research-backed advice and preventative measures to combat brain disease.

Dr. Niotis highlights specific risks associated with the APOE4 gene and addresses common questions about brain disease, hormone replacement therapy, alcohol consumption, over-the-counter sleep aids, and even the role of the Herpes Simplex Virus in neuroinflammation. Tune in for the essential tools women need to protect themselves against cognitive decline.
