New findings suggest an old method for preventing the flu may also help prevent Alzheimer's disease.   A study shows that adults who receive a flu vaccine are less likely to develop Alzheimer's disease and dementia. But does level of protection exceed what can be achieved naturally through diet and lifestyle changes?   Dr. Neal Barnard examines the findings of the study and how they compare to other prevention methods.   Topics - How effective are flu vaccines in preventing Alzheimer's disease and dementia? - What foods are best for preventing Alzheimer's? - What foods increase the risk of cognitive impairment? - How can you slow the progression of Alzheimer's disease? - How close are we to a curing Alzheimer's? - And more!   This episode of The Exam Room™ Podcast is sponsored by The Gregory J. Reiter Memorial Fund, which supports organizations like the Physicians Committee that carry on Greg’s passion and love for animals through rescue efforts, veganism, and wildlife conservation. — — BECOME AN EXAM ROOM VIP — — Benefits - Exclusive early access to select interviews - Pre-sale opportunities for live event tickets - Exclusive live online events - The first interview is with Dr. Michael Greger on Nov. 20.
