About this episode
What have you done for your brain today? That's the question we should all be asking ourselves every day, according to our guest, cofounder of The DNA Company, Bryce Wylde.
A lot of conversations in wellness revolve around taking care of ourselves in order to have the longest, healthiest lives. But rather than focusing on lifespan, what we really should be focusing on is ""brain span."" A long life doesn't necessarily equate to a positive quality of life, and Bryce speaks with JJ about how to support your cognitive abilities for as long as possible.
In this episode, you'll learn about what you can do naturally to achieve a long brain span, how to test for brain function and volume, what can cause shrinkage in the brain that may lead to neurodegenerative disease, and how leaky gut can lead to a leaky brain.
Plus, you'll hear nutrition recommendations that can have a massive impact on the brain, the importance of supplements (because you can't always get enough nutrients through food), how to determine whether you're in or out of a fight-or-flight state, and the benefits of the Japanese practice of forest bathing.
