3 easy ways to cut your Alzheimer's risk – with Patrick Holford

Could we reduce the risk of Alzheimer’s disease before symptoms even appear? Holistic health expert Patrick Holford, founder of the Food for the Brain Foundation, believes we can. He joins Liz to explain the importance of a preventative approach to brain health.


They discuss how lifestyle, nutrition and targeted supplementation play a powerful role in reducing dementia risk, and why it’s never too early or too late to make positive changes.


Patrick also talks about how learning something new keeps our brains fresh, and why vitamin B12, omega-3 and MCT oil should be top of your brain-health supplement stack.
