Alzheimer’s Breakthrough with Dr. Josh Helman, MD

What if Alzheimer’s isn’t just one disease but a family of diseases? In this episode, I’m thrilled to be joined by Dr. Melissa Murray, a professor of neuroscience at the Mayo Clinic. Dr. Murray’s groundbreaking research focuses on Alzheimer’s, dementia with Lewy bodies, and other neurodegenerative conditions. She leads the Mayo Clinic’s Translational Neuropathology Lab, where her team combines neuropathology, neuroimaging, and genetics to understand these diseases better.Dr. Murray is one of the recent winners of the Rainwater Prize for Outstanding Innovation in Neurodegenerative Research, which came with a $400,000 prize to further her and her colleague Dr. Dennis Dickson's research at Mayo Clinic.The Rainwater Prize honors scientific contributions to the field of neurodegenerative research that focus on diseases associated with the accumulation of tau protein in the brain, with the goal of translating discoveries into meaningful therapeutic and diagnostic innovations.Today’s discussion tackles a critical issue in brain health: treating Alzheimer’s like it’s a single disease. With advances in neuroimaging and biomarkers, we can now diagnose Alzheimer’s while people are still alive, which is a huge step forward from the past. Dr. Murray also highlights how brain donation is helping researchers like her gain deeper insights into the causes and progression of Alzheimer’s.“We can't help our genetics. We're blessed with what we were given, but we also get to play that deck of cards that we're handed, and we have a chance to make a difference.” ~ Melissa Murray, PhDIn this Episode03:47 - The power of neuroimaging and biomarkers for early Alzheimer’s detection05:58 - Alzheimer’s disease is not a single condition06:54 - Understanding vascular contributions to Alzheimer’s in younger patients12:20 - How lifestyle and genetics influence Alzheimer’s development13:32 - The future of Alzheimer’s diagnostics: Imaging modalities20:15 - Brain research and the role of brain donation in advancing research40:37 - Studying the brain for infection (viruses, bacteria, or parasites)49:44 - The connection between sleep and the risk of developing Alzheimer’s57:51 - Ongoing research about Alzheimer's and brain health1:00:18 - Key takeaways from the discussionResources:- Top Supplements for Alzheimer's Guide - https://bit.ly/drjoshguide- Book: The Tale of the Dueling Neurosurgeons by Sam Kean - https://www.amazon.com/dp/0316182354- MRI and pathology of REM sleep behavior disorder in dementia with Lewy bodies - https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC3812105/Connect with Melissa Murray, PhD: - LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/melissa-e-murray-012a919/- Website - https://www.mayo.eduConnect with Dr. Josh Helman, MD:- Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/greenbrainsMD- Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/greenbrainsmd/- LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/doctorjosh- TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@greenbrainsmd- YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUMtFP2icmNEhOaSsd-CrSg?sub_confirmation=1- Others - https://linktr.ee/greenbrainsmdDisclaimer: Please remember that this podcast is for informational purposes only and is not intended as medical advice.

Did you know that your sense of smell can affect your brain function? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Michael Leon, a professor emeritus of neurobiology and behavior at UC Irvine, to discuss a fascinating, yet simple intervention that can improve memory and brain function: olfactory enrichment. We explore how odors, when introduced during sleep, can trigger dramatic improvements in verbal memory and even stimulate changes in the brain's memory circuits.Dr. Leon dives into his research on the relationship between the sense of smell and the brain's memory pathways. He explains how olfactory loss is linked to various neurodegenerative conditions, such as Alzheimer's, and how reintroducing odors during sleep can have a profound impact on cognitive function. We also discuss the development of a device, the Memory Air, which makes olfactory enrichment easily accessible at home.This conversation sheds light on how olfactory stimulation can provide a simple, non-invasive, and safe solution to brain health and memory loss.“The sense of smell is the only sense that has a superhighway access to the memory centers and the emotional centers of your brain.” ~ Dr. Michael LeonIn this Episode03:28 - How the sense of smell differs from the other senses09:19 - Scent-related marketing strategies09:57 - Study results and brain imaging findings19:31 - Potential benefits of olfactory stimulation for other medical conditions29:03 - Selecting the right scent and avoiding artificial odors36:30 - Olfactory training for people who have lost their sense of smell37:37 - Development and use of the Memory Air device47:43 - Dr. Leon's thoughts on plastics getting into the brain49:19 - The most misunderstood information about smell and the brain50:56 - Dosage, duration, and schedule for safe and effective useResources:- Top Supplements for Alzheimer's Guide - https://bit.ly/drjoshguide- UC Irvine discovery leads to TIME-honored memory device - https://news.uci.edu/2025/10/09/uc-irvine-discovery-leads-to-time-honored-memory-device/- Get Your Memory Air Device - https://memoryair.com/discount/DRJOSHConnect with Dr. Michael Leon: - UCI Directory - https://directory.uci.edu/people/mleonConnect with Dr. Josh Helman, MD:- Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/greenbrainsMD- Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/greenbrainsmd/- LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/doctorjosh- TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@greenbrainsmd- YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUMtFP2icmNEhOaSsd-CrSg?sub_confirmation=1- Others - https://linktr.ee/greenbrainsmdDisclaimer: Please remember that this podcast is for informational purposes only and is not intended as medical advice.

Can “blood filtration” act like an oil change for chronic inflammation? In this episode, Dr. Mobeen Syed, also known as Dr. Been, returns to discuss a hot topic in chronic inflammation and spike-related syndromes: therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) and other blood filtration approaches. We break down what these procedures actually do, what they can remove from circulation, and why that might matter for brain fog, fatigue, microvascular dysfunction, and neuroinflammation.Dr. Been outlines the core methods: classic plasma exchange, immunoadsorption, and other extracorporeal options. We discuss the proposed “reset” effect, including reducing inflammatory mediators, autoantibodies, and abnormal clotting signals that may keep the body stuck in a vicious cycle.We review a sham-controlled randomized trial that found TPE to be safe but ineffective in that cohort, and discuss why a single intervention may help only a subset, if at all.If you want a clear, mechanism-first explanation without the hype, this conversation is for you. Share it with someone experiencing brain fog or fatigue, and subscribe for more evidence-based brain health deep dives.“Normally, the body is very efficient in removing extraneous harmful substances. When the body is unable to remove them because they are difficult to remove (like beta-pleated fiber sheets) and they are being produced a lot, we need to give the body a break. So we clean out the plasma.” ~ Dr. Mobeen Syed, MD, MScIn this Episode03:16 - Dr. Been's opinion on the benefits of TPE05:02 - Can we remove bad things from the blood?11:44 - The core idea: dislodge first, filter after24:04 - What the studies say about TPE49:41 - Can TPE reverse the effects of chronic inflammation and spike protein?53:58 - Clarification of concepts and terminologies discussed1:02:17 - Key takeaway from today's episodeResources:- Top Supplements for Alzheimer's Guide - https://bit.ly/drjoshguide- Therapeutic Plasma Exchange: Current and Emerging Applications to Mitigate Cellular Signaling in Disease - https://www.mdpi.com/2218-273X/15/7/1000- Persistent clotting protein pathology in Long COVID/Post-Acute Sequelae of COVID-19 (PASC) is accompanied by increased levels of antiplasmin - https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8381139/- Functional autoantibodies against G-protein coupled receptors in patients with persistent Long-COVID-19 symptoms - https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33880442/Connect with Dr. Mobeen Syed, MD, MSc: - Website - https://members.drbeen.com/courses- YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@DrBeenMedicalLecturesConnect with Dr. Josh Helman, MD:- Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/greenbrainsMD- Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/greenbrainsmd/- LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/doctorjosh- TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@greenbrainsmd- YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUMtFP2icmNEhOaSsd-CrSg?sub_confirmation=1- Others - https://linktr.ee/greenbrainsmdDisclaimer: Please remember that this podcast is for informational purposes only and is not intended as medical advice.

Could the silver fillings in your mouth be damaging your brain? In today’s episode, I interview Anita Vazquez-Tibau, an international advocate and researcher dedicated to ending the global use of toxic mercury in dentistry. Together, we dive into the shocking truth about dental amalgam fillings, which contain up to 54% mercury, a known neurotoxin.I was astounded to learn that despite the risks, the American Dental Association still claims that these fillings are safe. Anita explains how mercury not only poses a risk to your brain health but can also lead to neurodegeneration, including Alzheimer’s. We also discuss the global fight against mercury dental fillings, the Minamata Convention, and what you can do to protect your health if you have mercury fillings.If you or someone you love is dealing with cognitive decline, this episode could be an eye-opener.“The key is to have a good biological dentist who knows how to do oral surgery. Clean out everything and just say: Stop there. I don’t want an implant. I would like a removable appliance.” ~ Anita Vazquez -Tibau (How to Protect Yourself from Toxic Dental Implants)In this Episode00:00 - Introduction to Anita Vazquez -Tibau04:42 - Why the ADA still claims mercury fillings are safe07:32 - The Minamata Convention and mercury regulation20:19 - Mercury connection in Alzheimer’s and neurodegeneration28:33 - The dangers of some dental procedures38:42 - Detoxification, biocompatibility testing, and safe removal of mercury fillings50:52 - Other sources of mercury that we may not be aware of59:42 - Early signs of mercury exposure1:04:31 - Why some industries still use mercury despite the risks1:08:03 - The risks of getting titanium implants1:13:32 - What to do next if you have mercury implantsResources:- Top Supplements for Alzheimer's Guide - https://bit.ly/drjoshguideMentioned in this episode:- This is an extremely important video on mercury and brain neurodegeneration - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XU8nSn5Ezd8- The Smoking Tooth video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X0QJWqtl6AI- Citizen Petition - https://www.regulations.gov/document/FDA-2025-P-2526-0001- ANITA’s UNITED NATIONS CLOSING REMARKS MINAMATA CONVENTION COP6 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ImoXCCAapXo- Book link, CHEW ON THIS - https://www.amazon.com/Chew-this-but-dont-swallow/dp/B09PZR2TQK/Connect with Anita Vazquez -Tibau: - LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/anita-vazquez-tibau-6a85633/- Email - anitatibau@hotmail.comConnect with Dr. Josh Helman, MD:- Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/greenbrainsMD- Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/greenbrainsmd/- LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/doctorjosh- TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@greenbrainsmd- YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUMtFP2icmNEhOaSsd-CrSg?sub_confirmation=1- Others - https://linktr.ee/greenbrainsmdDisclaimer: Please remember that this podcast is for informational purposes only and is not intended as medical advice.

Alzheimer’s doesn’t begin with sudden memory loss. It begins decades earlier with systemic breakdowns that modern medicine continues to miss. And by the time someone is diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, the damage seems full-blown. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Brad Younggren to discuss why Alzheimer’s is less a mystery of missing science and more a failure of how our healthcare system is designed.We explore therapeutic plasma exchange (TPE) and why removing harmful inflammatory proteins, immune antibodies, plastics, and toxic exposures from the bloodstream may represent a powerful new frontier in brain health, longevity, and chronic disease care. Dr. Younggren shares how this decades-old hospital procedure is being safely re-engineered for outpatient use and why it’s showing promise for dementia, autoimmune illness, and accelerated aging.We also discuss why the exposome, the total toxic burden from plastics, heavy metals, mold, and environmental chemicals, plays a far bigger role in cognitive decline than most people realize. From immune modulation to biological age reversal, this conversation challenges the idea that Alzheimer’s is inevitable or untreatable.If you care about preventing cognitive decline, extending brain healthspan, and understanding why the medical system often fails Alzheimer's patients, this episode opens your eyes to what’s possible.Interested in receiving TPE with Dr. Josh?

Do you have a brain health question you are afraid to ask? In this special Q&A episode, I’m answering the most pressing questions I receive about brain health, Alzheimer’s prevention, spike protein exposure, detoxification, parasites, fasting, and longevity. These are complex, often controversial topics, and my goal is to cut through fear, misinformation, and oversimplified advice with evidence-based clarity and real-world clinical experience.I explain what we currently know about spike proteins and what safe, physician-guided detoxification actually looks like. We explore glutathione as a foundational detox molecule, why overaggressively breaking down biofilms can backfire, and how lifestyle interventions can improve brain resilience even when damage has already occurred.This episode also dives into parasites, heavy metals, mold toxins, and how to separate legitimate detox science from marketing hype. I answer practical questions about fasting, antioxidants, supplements, affordability, and what truly moves the needle for protecting your brain long term.Most importantly, I want you to leave this conversation with hope. There is no single magic fix—but there is a powerful toolbox that can improve brain health, slow decline, and in many cases, support meaningful recovery.“You do not need lots of expensive boutique tests and exotic supplements to meaningfully protect your brain.

What if the fastest way to improve your brain isn’t just one treatment but three powerful levers working together to reverse cognitive decline? In this episode, I interview Dr. Nick Delgado, a pioneer in hormone optimization, inflammation control, peptide therapy, and lifestyle medicine, to explore what he calls the fastest levers for transforming brain health. We break down how nutrition, hormone balance, and targeted peptides can rapidly shift cognition, reduce inflammation, and support the aging brain. Dr. Delgado shares stories from over 45 years of clinical experience, including remarkable cases of patients with advanced Alzheimer’s who showed unexpected improvements after strategic interventions. We discuss the roles of triglycerides, dietary fat, cholesterol, and plant-based nutrition in maintaining blood flow to the brain. We also dive into hormone restoration–testosterone, DHEA, pregnenolone, estriol, progesterone–and how these influence cognition, mood, and neuroprotection. Dr. Delgado explains how each tool can support brain regeneration when used thoughtfully and synergistically. “Alzheimer's and cognition and so forth, is not only a hormonal decline. It's an arterial problem, it's a lack of circulation, so you want to figure out every way to bring massive amounts of blood flow to that brain.” ~ Dr. Nick DelgadoIn this Episode00:00 - Introduction to Dr. Nick Delgado and his work04:40 - Early work with nutritionist and longevity researcher Nathan Pritikin 09:15 - Dr. Kempner's high-carb, low-fat diet for cognitive protection13:07 - Insights from a lifestyle medicine pioneer27:21 - Why the brain does not need high dietary fat31:05 - The diet that best prevents brain degeneration38:57 - Case study: reversing Stage 4 Alzheimer’s with multimodal care51:37 - Synergy vs. single interventions in neurodegeneration1:07:50 - The impact of stem cells in neuroregeneration1:14:46 - New technologies Dr. Delgado is excited about1:18:51 - Key takeaways from today's conversationResources:- Top Supplements for Alzheimer's Guide - https://bit.ly/drjoshguide- Stop Aging Now: Seven Secrets to Look & Feel Great by Dr. Nick Delgado - https://stopagingnowbook.com/- Brain Fitness by Dr. Robert Goldman - https://www.amazon.com/dp/0385488645- The Pritikin Diet & Eating Plan - https://www.pritikin.com/pritikin-program#eating-planConnect with Dr. Nick Delgado: - Website - https://foreveryoungevent.com/ and https://delgadolabs.com/- The Delgado Protocol for Health - https://delgadoprotocol.com/Connect with Dr. Josh Helman, MD:- Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/greenbrainsMD- Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/greenbrainsmd/- LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/doctorjosh- TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@greenbrainsmd- YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUMtFP2icmNEhOaSsd-CrSg?sub_confirmation=1- Others - https://linktr.ee/greenbrainsmdDisclaimer: Please remember that this podcast is for informational purposes only and is not intended as medical advice.

Why do some people stay mentally sharp after surgery while others decline even when their brains look identical on scans?In this episode, I explore one of the biggest mysteries in brain health: why two people with the same MRI, the same amyloid burden, and the same risk factors can age so differently. My guest, Dr. Leah Acker, a Harvard-MIT–trained physician-scientist and Duke anesthesiologist, studies the hidden rules of brain resilience and what stress reveals about cognitive decline. As we talk, Dr. Acker explains how surgery acts as a “stress test for the brain,” exposing vulnerabilities years before symptoms show up. We break down the links between anesthesia, delirium, sleep, heart rate variability, inflammation, and early neurodegeneration, and why postoperative delirium can increase dementia risk up to 12-fold. She also explains why simple EEG changes can predict who is most vulnerable during stress. We also dive into the future of brain science—from personalized anesthesia to breakthroughs in functional MRI and new Alzheimer’s biomarkers. If you or a loved one is facing surgery, or if you want to understand how the aging brain really works, this episode is essential. Tune in to learn how to prepare, protect your brain, and build long-term cognitive resilience.“ I tend to think of surgery and anesthesia as a stress test for the brain. It's an emotionally stressful event in general…On top of that, there's a lot of physiological stress that comes with surgery.” ~ Dr. Leah AckerIn this Episode00:00 - Introduction to Dr. Leah Acker07:58 - Post-operative delirium and dementia connection11:08 - Heart health and its impact on inflammation and healing14:51 - How long does anesthesia stay in the body?19:36 - Pre-operative preparation to minimize the stress of surgery23:19 - EEG, alpha waves, and what they reveal about brain health27:31 - Surgery as a stress test for the brain33:27 - Tips for patients who have just had a major surgery44:06 - Biomarkers to determine brain function and Alzheimer's risk47:23 - What makes the brain respond well to stress?53:03 - The future of brain research and personalized patient careResources:- Top Supplements for Alzheimer's Guide - https://bit.ly/drjoshguideConnect with Dr. Leah Acker: - Website - ackerlab.com- Email - ackerlabinfo@duke.eduConnect with Dr. Josh Helman, MD:- Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/greenbrainsMD- Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/greenbrainsmd/- LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/doctorjosh- TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@greenbrainsmd- YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCUMtFP2icmNEhOaSsd-CrSg?sub_confirmation=1- Others - https://linktr.ee/greenbrainsmdDisclaimer: Please remember that this podcast is for informational purposes only and is not intended as medical advice.
