Fair to say that we all assume that aging is inevitable. In reality however, there is no biological law that says we must age. Over the years we've seen a variety of theories proposed to explain why we age including the accumulation of damage to our DNA, the damaging effects of chemicals called "free radicals,” changes in the function of our mitochondria, and so many others.

Despite so many highly publicized breakthroughs in medical science, cancer remains a formidable disease. Deaths from cancer are actually continuing to rise, at a rate of 3.5 to 4% each year. Dr. Thomas Seyfried believes that the common narrative we have for what causes cancer is, in fact, incorrect. That's why I've asked him to join me on The Empowering Neurologist today.

Creatine is one of the most valuable supplements for both brain and body health. I typically take 5 grams twice a day of creatine monohydrate—powder form preferred for fewer additives. Recent research also shows that creatine may improve cognition in early-stage Alzheimer’s without serious side effects, making it a powerful tool to support mitochondrial function and metabolism. Consider adding creatine to your routine, especially if brain health is a priority. | David Perlmutter, M.D.

Creatine is often hailed as one of the safest supplements out there. For those with kidney disease, it's important to consider the impact it may have when combined with certain medications, like NSAIDs. Always check in with your healthcare provider to ensure it’s a good fit for you — especially if you're managing other health conditions. | David Perlmutter, M.D.

Should you get your polyphenols from food or supplements? I generally recommend getting them from whole foods, where they come packaged with other compounds that enhance their benefits—a phenomenon known as the “entourage effect.” Still, supplementation can be helpful depending on your diet. Olive oil, colorful vegetables, and Himalayan Tartary buckwheat are excellent sources worth considering. | David Perlmutter, M.D.

Creatine is one of the safest and most beneficial supplements I take daily. It’s well-known for improving muscle performance, but emerging research shows its remarkable potential for brain health—especially in supporting memory in older adults. For a closer look at how creatine can benefit both your body and brain, you can read my blog post here: https://drperlmutter.com/the-health-benefits-of-creatine-supplementation/ | David Perlmutter, M.D.

Polyphenols are the one singular factor that is consistent in the diets across the Blue Zones. On the latest episode of Empowering Neurologist, I sit with @jeffreyblandphd to discuss what’s at the cutting edge of food science discoveries as it relates to polyphenols and the ancient foods that powerfully influence immune function including Himalayan tartary buckwheat, a modern day superfood that’s getting a lot of attention.

We often talk about nutrition, sleep, and stress, and rightfully so. Physical fitness, though, deserves just as much attention when it comes to protecting the brain. Cardiorespiratory fitness isn't just about heart health. It plays a critical role in regulating glucose, improving insulin function, and ultimately reducing risk for cognitive decline. Exercise is a non-negotiable part of brain preservation and the science keeps pointing us back to it. | David Perlmutter, M.D.

You may have noticed that Vitamin D supplements are often combined with K2. Ever wondered why? Both are fat-soluble, which means they’re best absorbed with a meal. But there's more to the story. Vitamin K2, especially the MK-7 form, may help direct calcium to your bones and away from your arteries, supporting heart and arterial health. I’m a strong supporter of both. And when taken together, the benefits may be even greater. | David Perlmutter, M.D.

Many sweeteners marketed as healthy can actually harm your metabolism. Splenda disrupts the gut microbiome, and agave nectar, although it sounds “natural,” is about 70 percent fructose. Fructose increases fat storage, reduces mitochondrial function, and contributes to insulin resistance. For anyone prioritizing metabolic and brain health, avoiding these sweeteners is a straightforward and powerful step. One sweetener I do recommend is allulose, which has a low or negligible effect on blood sugar

We don’t yet have meaningful treatments for Alzheimer’s or Parkinson’s that address the root cause. Research, however, continues to show that lifestyle choices can have a powerful influence on risk and progression. In a recent interview with @MedicalNewsToday, I shared insights on how metabolic and hormonal factors, along with neuroinflammation, may impact brain health.

If you're experiencing weight gain on creatine, here’s what you need to know: ➡️ Creatine pulls water into cells, adding temporary weight. ➡️ It helps build muscle, which is denser than fat. ➡️ It increases glycogen storage, means more water weight. ➡️ In some cases, creatine may increase appetite, leading to more food intake. To manage the possibility of weight gain, stay hydrated, monitor your diet, and remember that this weight gain is temporary as your body adjusts. Creatine is still one of

Food marketing has become very good at borrowing the language of health. Words like “natural,” “plant-based,” and “from coconuts” are often used to create a sense of safety around ingredients that still behave the same way in the body. Sugar is one of the clearest examples of this disconnect. From a metabolic perspective, the source matters far less than the physiological response. Added sugars, regardless of origin, place a burden on blood sugar regulation and insulin signaling. Over time, that

Some of the most powerful chemicals for brain health are not found in a supplement bottle. They are made inside your own body. Your muscles create a group of compounds that support memory, protect neurons, and lower the risk of cognitive decline. These chemicals are released during movement, and they help explain why exercise has such a profound effect on long-term brain health. There is something incredibly empowering about knowing you can create this kind of support from within. All it takes i
