In this episode, we dive into the fascinating world of cognitive health with Dr. Mitchell Clionsky, a board-certified clinical neuropsychologist specializing in memory disorders assessment. Our host, Darleen Mahoney, explores a recent study on lifestyle interventions for cognitive health, presented at the Alzheimer's Association International Conference.

Dr. Clionsky offers a critical analysis of the Pointer Study, which examined the effects of lifestyle changes on cognitive function in older adults. We discuss the study's methodology, results, and limitations, providing listeners with a balanced view of the research. The conversation then shifts to practical aspects of cognitive health, including the impact of diet, alcohol consumption, and even marijuana use on brain function.

Whether you're curious about the latest research in dementia prevention or looking for actionable advice on maintaining cognitive health, this episode delivers valuable insights. Tune in to hear Dr. Clionsky's expert take on what really matters when it comes to keeping your brain sharp as you age.
