In today’s Habit’s & Hustle episode, renowned health expert Max Lugavere shares his insights on the critical role diet and lifestyle play in maintaining optimal brain health and potentially preventing debilitating conditions like Alzheimer's and dementia.

Max's personal journey, having witnessed his mother's battle with Lewy body dementia, has fueled his passion for educating others about the power of nutrition and healthy habits. He dives deep into the science behind key nutrients like astaxanthin, magnesium, and collagen, and busts myths surrounding popular diet trends like intermittent fasting.

But can we really eat our way to a healthier brain? Max argues that while there's no magic formula, focusing on whole foods, adequate protein intake, and regular exercise can significantly impact our cognitive function and overall well-being.

Our conversation discusses cutting-edge research, practical tips for optimizing your diet, and the surprising connection between environmental toxins and neurological disorders.
