Join Max Lugavere and learn how food can help protect your brain and your overall health.Alzheimer's disease, one of the most dreaded conditions of old age, is unfortunately made even more of a burden by a gene called ApoE4. With two copies of this gene, you can double your risk of developing this devastating condition, proving that life isn't always fair. Even if you don't have the gene, aging still increases your chances, making it seem like no matter what you do, Alzheimer's will still creep up on you. But don't lose hope - animal studies have found that heat shock proteins can at least offer some protection against it. So, while Alzheimer's may be looming in your future, there may still be some hope.#Alzheimersdisease #maxlugavere #dementia #brainhealthSponsors:LMNT - drinklmnt.com/NEUROTimeline - timelinenutrition.com/neuroYou can follow me or contact me here --- Newsletter: https://bit.ly/3ewI5P0Instagram: louisanicola_Twitter : louisanicola_YouTube: Louisa Nicola Connect with Max:Website https://www.maxlugavere.com/aboutInstagram https://www.instagram.com/maxlugavere...Facebook https://www.facebook.com/MaxLugavereYouTube @maxlugavere Twitter https://twitter.com/maxlugaverePodcast htt
