0:42
let's head to the show. Hi,
0:44
everyone. Welcome back. Let's discuss
0:46
a number of natural ways that you
0:48
can help preserve your brain health and
0:51
preserve your cognition. And
0:53
beyond the obvious, why this might be the most
0:55
important area for you to focus on whatever
0:58
challenge you've been given. If it's
1:00
a health challenge, a work challenge,
1:02
a social or relationship challenge, the
1:05
better you think, the faster you should
1:07
be able to solve that problem. So
1:10
these tools that we can use to improve
1:12
brain health, including cognition,
1:15
are quite important and something we should
1:17
pay attention to. So today,
1:20
let's discuss exercise, beetroot
1:22
juice, polyphenols,
1:25
ultra processed food, how we define
1:27
those and what detriment
1:30
they pose, the Mediterranean diet,
1:32
fish oil and multivitamin
1:34
supplementation, fasting, and an
1:37
enzyme that breaks down histamine called
1:39
DAO. Let's
1:44
start with exercise. You
1:46
may have been frustrated by the
1:49
advice of eat less
1:51
and exercise. This
1:53
study may shift how we
1:56
think about that in that it could be
1:59
better to be able to do better and more accurately
2:01
stated that if you exercise, you
2:04
will eat less. 2023,
2:08
meta-analysis that found
2:10
exercising reduced cravings
2:12
for unhealthy foods. Being
2:15
a meta-analysis, they looked at eight
2:18
different studies. They
2:20
performed brain scans within a few
2:23
minutes or within a day after
2:26
aerobic exercise compared
2:28
to controls. Now,
2:31
what was interesting about this study is
2:33
people, while in a functional
2:35
MRI and having their brains
2:37
scanned, were shown photos
2:40
of pizza, one of my favorites. In
2:43
fact, I had pizza last night. Just to
2:45
clarify, as much as I advocate being healthy,
2:47
I leave some
2:49
allowance for indulgences. Cakes,
2:53
ice cream, hot dogs, as
2:56
compared to other images of
2:58
vegetables, fruits, and
3:01
whole grains. What
3:03
they found was interesting in that there
3:06
was reduced cravings for
3:08
processed foods as
3:10
evidenced by lower activity
3:13
in this brain region called
3:15
the insula. And the insula
3:18
is a part of the brain that
3:21
is responsible for, or at least
3:23
involved in, food craving.
3:26
Now, one of the things I've noticed, just to tie in
3:28
my personal experience, is when
3:31
I'm exercising, I do
3:33
notice I have less cravings. It's a
3:35
weird, I guess
3:37
counterintuitive other than in light
3:40
of this study findings, because
3:42
you would think if you're exercising more,
3:45
you'd be hungry. Now, there are certain
3:48
tie-ins where if I have
3:50
an extremely vigorous exercise day, I
3:53
may notice I'm a little bit more hungry, or
3:55
probably more accurately stated, I'm more
3:57
thirsty, and sometimes we'll confuse one.
4:00
will confuse hunger for thirst,
4:02
which is why I think it's important
4:04
if you're trying to mind your total
4:06
calories consumed to drink ample
4:08
water because sometimes it's the water
4:11
in the food that you're craving. Nevertheless,
4:14
I have noticed as I've
4:16
gone through periods of exercising more, exercising
4:18
less, that on a
4:20
day when I exercise, I
4:22
find myself eating less and
4:24
being less hungry. So for
4:26
whatever it's worth, you
4:29
may end up eating less
4:31
of your own accord and not having
4:33
to force yourself to eat less if
4:36
you're exercising. So if you're not yet, please
4:38
consider starting as soon as you can. Okay,
4:43
beetroot. This is also
4:45
a supplement I take on most days. There
4:47
was a 2023 crossover randomized
4:51
control trial. This means that the
4:53
placebo group and the treatment group
4:55
were then switched so we could
4:57
compare across groups to make sure
4:59
the finding was consistent. Given
5:02
either three grams of beetroot
5:05
as a powder or placebo,
5:08
and they found that supplementation with
5:10
the beetroot led to
5:12
improved short and long
5:14
term memory and also cognitive
5:16
flexibility. The way I
5:18
think about cognitive flexibility is task
5:21
switching. So I'm involved
5:23
in research, in clinic, in education, and
5:26
kind of running the business in terms of the
5:28
mechanics and the people that underlie this. And
5:30
so it's not uncommon for me to have to
5:32
switch from analyzing data as
5:34
in went into this brief, and then
5:37
shift to something with someone on our
5:39
team that may be more so how
5:41
do we plan, how do we build
5:43
systems. And so that cognitive flexibility, the
5:46
faculty to switch tasks effectively
5:50
is this cognitive flexibility, which I feel is
5:52
quite an important mental
5:54
attribute to have. So
5:57
then why was it perhaps that the beetroot
5:59
improved? improved these domains of cognition.
6:03
Well we know that beetroot can
6:05
improve circulation. There's
6:07
some evidence that has found
6:09
that beetroot supplementation can improve
6:12
cardiovascular performance, can increase levels
6:14
of what's known as nitric
6:16
oxide, and nitric
6:19
oxide may improve performance
6:21
via increasing circulation. Also,
6:23
as you can imagine, as
6:25
we've discussed before, polyphenols are
6:28
what gives fruits and
6:30
vegetables their color, and
6:32
obviously beetroot is this
6:35
bright, rich red, therefore it's
6:37
rich in antioxidants. And
6:39
just to briefly touch on the
6:42
fact that this was one randomized
6:44
control trial, what if we zoom
6:46
out and look for meta-analyses that
6:48
have summarized the body of evidence
6:50
for beetroot? Well,
6:53
there are no meta-analyses on
6:55
cognition, but there
6:57
are meta-analyses on beetroot
7:00
being able to reduce
7:02
exercise-induced muscle damage,
7:06
and a separate meta-analysis that found
7:08
that beetroot juice, but
7:10
in this case not powder, led
7:13
to a reduction in blood pressure. So
7:16
something to perhaps consider is
7:18
adding either beetroot juice or
7:21
powder to your daily routine.
7:24
We just mentioned polyphenols. These
7:27
are nutrients in plants
7:30
that help the body, the human system,
7:33
manage inflammation and
7:35
protect against oxidative stress due
7:38
to, amongst other things, the
7:40
rich antioxidant content. This
7:42
is where a 2023 meta-analysis
7:45
of 37 studies was
7:48
interesting, in that they
7:50
found that polyphenol consumption in
7:52
the diet was associated
7:54
with a 20% lower
7:57
risk of cognitive impairment. And
8:01
this may be where the the axiom
8:03
the recommendation to eat the rainbow has
8:07
Relevance in terms of aim
8:09
for different colors across
8:11
the fruits and vegetables that you eat
8:15
to quote this paper habitual
8:17
inclusion of flavonoids
8:21
in the diet may play a preventative
8:24
role in cognitive disorders
8:26
and Polyphenols
8:28
and flavonoids are very
8:31
loosely said kind of aka is for
8:33
what you will get in richly
8:36
colored fruits and vegetables And
8:39
I did want to touch on something that we had covered
8:41
in a previous video on best
8:44
foods for brain health wherein
8:47
we cite a study listing
8:49
the most rich Polyphenol
8:52
foods this includes
8:54
cloves peppermint dark
8:56
chocolate flax seeds rosemary
8:59
and blueberries, which
9:01
is why one of my recommendations was
9:04
Consider pairing chocolate dark chocolate that is so
9:06
it's gonna have minimal sugar with
9:09
blueberries Now
9:11
on the other side of the spectrum if
9:13
we're eating ultra processed food
9:17
Those foods are likely
9:19
supplanting these Polyphenol
9:22
rich foods that we get from plants I
9:25
also just want to say that I'm not making
9:27
the claim that you have to eat a plant-based
9:29
diet But I think an
9:31
omnivorous diet that includes healthy sources of meat
9:33
and fish and fat Plus
9:36
fruits and vegetables is probably the
9:38
best healthiest most well-rounded and balanced
9:40
diet That being said Looking
9:43
at ultra processed food. Well
9:45
firstly, how do we
9:47
define ultra processed because There
9:50
can be loose language used
9:53
wherein people don't know Should
9:56
I literally be eating raw meat and
9:58
raw vegetables? no
10:00
processing? Is some processing okay?
10:03
And if so, how much is okay and how
10:05
much is too much? Well,
10:07
a few guidelines for you. The
10:11
ultra-processed foods contain ingredients that
10:14
are made in the lab
10:16
to enhance taste, color,
10:18
and or shelf life and
10:21
are not routinely found in your kitchen. Here
10:25
is what I found to be
10:27
a wonderful diagram from the journal
10:29
Nutrients, which I'm proud
10:31
to say we have been published in, not
10:33
this paper, but we've been published in this
10:35
journal, great journal, looking
10:38
at fresh produce as pineapple and
10:40
corn. Unprocessed would
10:42
be whole corn, whole pineapple.
10:46
Minimally processed would be cut
10:48
corn or popcorn. Processed
10:51
would be pineapple
10:55
slices and syrup in a can or
10:58
kernel corn in a can. And
11:01
ultra-processed would be pineapple jelly
11:04
or some sort of corn chip snack.
11:07
So this just gives you an example
11:09
of what the spectrum of food processing
11:12
looks like. And I'm trying to be
11:14
better about giving specific examples because you
11:16
have in the comments asked questions, well,
11:18
how do we define ultra-processed from minimally
11:20
processed? And I think that's a great
11:22
question. So thank you for the feedback
11:24
in the comments. And this
11:26
is why myself and big credit to our research team dug
11:29
to try to find a specific tangible
11:32
example. So
11:35
now coming to the study, a
11:37
2023 meta-analysis of
11:39
26 observational trials,
11:42
looking at over 260,000 individuals, finding
11:48
that higher ultra-processed food
11:50
intake was associated
11:52
with a 28% increase risk of depression
11:58
and quoting the journal Results
12:00
of the present study clearly
12:02
indicate that consuming ultra-processed food
12:05
was linked to an increased
12:07
risk of depression. So
12:10
bear this in mind and do
12:12
your best to avoid the ultra-processed
12:15
fast foods, cookies, pastries, things
12:18
like cakes, ice cream, pizza
12:21
and pasta, even though
12:23
again, I will have pizza on
12:25
occasion like I admitted to earlier,
12:27
avoiding hot dogs, chicken nuggets and
12:30
soft drinks. Again, it doesn't
12:32
mean you can't have any of these,
12:34
but certainly things that you want to
12:36
be judicious with your consumption. Now,
12:40
like I mentioned a moment ago, the polyphenols
12:42
you can get from a number of dietary
12:45
plans, one of which is a Mediterranean diet.
12:48
And it was recently found in
12:50
a meta-analysis that
12:53
the Mediterranean diet can
12:55
improve cognitive function.
12:58
They found that adhering to this diet led
13:01
to better cognitive health
13:03
as measured by multiple
13:05
indices. And my
13:09
opinion here, it's likely
13:11
due to the combination of
13:13
higher food quality, meaning as
13:15
one example, again, you'll have
13:17
polyphenols and flavonoids from
13:19
those plant foods. You'll have
13:21
fish and you
13:24
will likely not be overeating because
13:26
there is more of a tendency
13:28
to overeat when people consume processed
13:31
foods. So it's important to underscore
13:33
that it may not be all
13:35
due to the diet regarding
13:38
the nutrient content, which is totally
13:40
important not to discount that, but
13:44
that another benefit may be contained in
13:46
the fact that a
13:48
higher quality food
13:50
diet is more
13:52
prone to guard
13:54
against overeating. And
13:57
when people don't overeat, they avoid
13:59
gaining weight. and
14:01
all of the subsequent issues that
14:03
accompany being overweight. Hey
14:06
there podcast listeners, thank you so much for
14:08
following the show. If you wouldn't mind, please
14:10
leave the podcast a quick review and share
14:12
this with someone you think it may help.
14:16
Many healthy diets will include fish.
14:20
So let's discuss fish oil. This
14:23
next study did find that fish
14:26
oil supplementation increased
14:29
what's known as brain-derived
14:31
neurotrophic factor or BDNF,
14:34
which is also nicknamed miracle
14:37
grow for the brain because it
14:39
literally causes growth in the brain.
14:43
A 2023 meta-analysis of 12 randomized
14:46
control trials looked at placebo versus
14:49
omega-3 fatty acid supplementation.
14:53
And again, they did find that
14:55
the omega-3 supplementation group
14:57
or groups had
15:00
increased levels of brain-derived neurotrophic
15:02
factor. They found
15:04
additionally that the most effective
15:06
dosing was over 2000 milligrams
15:10
per day for a term
15:12
of 10 weeks or
15:14
less. And
15:17
that the omega-3s could be
15:19
obtained from either fish oil or
15:22
from flaxseed. Okay,
15:25
this is a mechanism, brain-derived
15:28
neurotrophic factor. How can
15:30
we test if modulation
15:32
of that mechanism leads to
15:34
an outcome of improved
15:37
cognitive function? Well, we
15:39
can look for a different meta-analysis that
15:41
instead of tracking mechanism, looked at outcome.
15:45
So this enters a
15:47
2020 meta-analysis, which
15:49
we dug up to fact-check
15:52
this one claim regarding the
15:54
brain-derived neurotrophic factor. This study
15:58
looked at cognitive function. across
16:01
seven clinical trials, this
16:03
was an elderly subject. So I want
16:05
to bridle the finding just a touch
16:08
because it's not always safe to assume
16:11
what we see in elderly will
16:13
also happen in middle aged
16:15
or younger populations. We
16:17
may assume to some extent that
16:20
elderly populations may be
16:22
easier to get a response from
16:25
because there may be more malnourishment
16:27
amongst other things. However,
16:29
they did find that
16:32
omega-3s improve cognitive
16:34
function with a large effect
16:36
size. And when we think
16:39
about effect size, said
16:41
simply, there can be no effect
16:43
size, meaning it was nil, it was null. There
16:46
can be small, medium, or large. Effect
16:48
size gives you a proxy to
16:51
the clinical effect.
16:54
A large effect size is almost for
16:56
certain something someone may notice and say,
16:58
you know, I feel a little sharper,
17:00
a little more witty. A
17:03
small effect size may not
17:05
move the needle enough for you to
17:07
perceive the change. So I
17:09
just want to tie that this
17:12
meta-analysis, looking at cognition, albeit
17:14
in elderly, did find a large
17:16
effect size on improving
17:18
the cognitive function in or
17:21
across these seven randomized control
17:23
trials. In
17:26
our clinic, we somewhat routinely will
17:28
recommend fish oil
17:31
supplementation paired with the use of
17:34
a multivitamin. This
17:36
next randomized control trial
17:38
looked at just under 4,000 older adults, about 70 years
17:40
of age as
17:44
sort of the average age, who were given placebo or
17:49
a multivitamin. And in this case, the multivitamin
17:51
was Centrum
17:54
Silver, which I
17:56
do not think is necessarily the
17:58
highest quality multivitamin. But
18:00
nevertheless, they found improved
18:03
memory at one year of
18:05
use. I feel
18:07
this is important to underscore because sometimes
18:10
we can get wrapped up in
18:12
the most bioavailable vitamin out there
18:14
and that can lead to buying
18:16
unnecessarily high quality vitamins.
18:21
And if that's what you want to do, fine. But
18:23
if you're on the limited budget, I think
18:25
it is important to underscore again, this was
18:27
not necessarily a super high quality
18:29
vitamin, meaning the vitamins
18:32
and minerals therein were
18:34
not all the highest
18:36
bioavailability, but nevertheless, we
18:38
saw the improved memory
18:40
at one year. Leading
18:42
to the group of researchers here to quote,
18:46
multivitamin supplementation holds promise as
18:48
a safe and accessible approach
18:50
to maintaining cognitive health in
18:52
older age. I
18:56
said a moment ago that what we
18:58
see in elderly may not necessarily
19:00
map on to younger. So
19:03
we also fact checked, is
19:06
there data showing that younger adults
19:08
can see benefits in cognition when
19:11
supplementing with a multivitamin?
19:14
And we were able to locate a
19:16
2010 randomized control trial
19:19
in about 200 healthy females
19:22
that were between 25 and 50 years
19:25
of age, given either placebo or
19:27
multivitamin. And
19:29
they were administered a cognitive
19:31
test at baseline and
19:33
after two months. They found,
19:36
thankfully, that a multivitamin led
19:39
to less cognitive fatigue, better
19:42
accuracy on cognitive tests,
19:44
and improved multitasking. And
19:47
I'll just tie in my own experience
19:49
here, where recently I did
19:51
go on a high dose multivitamin and
19:54
after about two weeks, I noticed
19:56
my sleep improved. Now,
19:59
I was... was changing a couple other
20:01
things at the same time, so it's hard for me
20:03
to pinpoint the variable, but
20:05
my intuitive sense is there was some
20:08
benefit that I gained from
20:10
a multivitamin, and
20:12
just theorizing here, perhaps
20:15
my high workload, my
20:17
high training load, the fact that
20:19
I'm saunting most days, I
20:22
was just depleted. And with all the demands,
20:24
even though my diet's pretty good, I couldn't
20:26
keep pace with my needs. So
20:29
as much as I try to be
20:31
an idealist and get the nutrients needed
20:33
from diet, I'm also a realist, and
20:36
even someone paying as much attention to
20:38
diet as I do seemed
20:40
to have benefited from use
20:42
of a multivitamin. Intermittent
20:46
fasting, 2023 med
20:48
analysis, looking at 25 studies, wherein
20:52
people either continued on their habitual
20:54
baseline diet or underwent
20:57
intermittent fasting, they
20:59
did not specify the protocol
21:01
of the fasting window specifically.
21:04
They did find that intermittent
21:06
fasting led to lower
21:09
C-reactive protein, small effect size, and
21:12
lower interleukin 6, moderate
21:15
effect size, both of which are
21:17
inflammatory markers. But
21:20
per the usual, let's contrast this
21:22
with a clinical endpoint
21:24
of cognitive function. In this
21:27
case, a 2020 observational
21:29
trial in healthy
21:32
older adults who did express
21:34
a degree of cognitive impairment,
21:37
they were fasted during daylight
21:39
hours, twice per week, so
21:41
just a daytime fast, two days per week,
21:44
compared to people who were doing no fasting
21:46
at all. And the researchers
21:49
commented as follows, overall,
21:52
the MCI afflicted, so
21:54
mild cognitive impairment afflicted
21:57
older adults who practiced IF... intermittent
22:00
fasting, regularly had better
22:02
cognitive scores and reverted to better
22:04
cognitive function at a 36 month
22:08
follow-up. So something
22:10
else to consider if you're looking to
22:13
optimize cognitive function. Now
22:15
let me also say that we want to be careful
22:17
not to fall into sort of this
22:20
one size fits all thinking that everyone must fast
22:22
if they're trying to improve their brain health. Caveats.
22:27
There were fewer smokers in the
22:29
fasting group and there
22:31
was more weight loss in the
22:33
fasting group. So we
22:35
might be able to restate these findings
22:37
as those who followed
22:40
a diet that allowed weight loss
22:42
had improved cognition. And
22:45
for some people fasting will be
22:47
that plan. I can say
22:49
for myself this used to work
22:51
but it no longer works. What
22:54
I noticed was happening with myself is
22:57
I would not eat enough during the day
22:59
and I would have a very large meal
23:01
too late in the day too close to
23:03
bedtime and I was impairing my sleep. So
23:07
as we've been discussing on the show remember
23:09
to think critically and not to
23:12
just sort of blindly shoehorn
23:14
yourself into these recommendations
23:17
but consider these experiments you can run
23:20
to see what feels good to
23:22
you. Hi
23:25
everyone. If you're looking for a functional medicine
23:27
provider or doctor, reminder
23:29
that our clinic offers telehealth nationwide. And
23:31
I'm very excited to share that we
23:33
currently have a six patient case series
23:36
in peer review for publication in
23:38
the medical journal. We have another
23:40
gut thyroid paper in the works
23:43
for a fairly large medical journal.
23:45
And third and finally we are
23:47
continuing to collect data on
23:49
treatment of hydrogen sulfide SIBO
23:52
with probiotic triple therapy and
23:54
I'm excited to say as the data are coming
23:56
in they look very encouraging. So if you are
23:59
in need of efficating cost-effective
24:01
and practical functional medicine
24:22
care, please reach out to the clinic. We also do offer free 15-minute discovery calls with our nurse.
24:24
So if you've been thinking about this and you have a few questions you'd like to get
24:26
answered, then please feel free to reach out. The clinic website is ruchoinstitute.com. Okay, and then the
24:28
final study here ties in histamine. Histamine
24:31
is a signaling molecule of the
24:33
immune system and when people have
24:36
allergy or inflammation, they can have
24:38
higher levels of histamine. This
24:40
is also seen in patients with IBS. To
24:43
some extent, it is a higher production
24:45
of histamine. Now,
24:48
this clinical trial administered
24:50
an enzyme known as
24:52
DAO or diamine oxidase,
24:54
which breaks down histamine.
24:57
You release this in your GI tract,
24:59
but some people, when there's damage or
25:01
inflammation in the lining of the GI
25:03
tract, don't produce enough. So
25:06
giving a supplement may help. 100
25:09
women with fibromyalgia were
25:11
given either placebo or
25:14
DAO and
25:16
they did find that this enzyme
25:18
supplement led to improved
25:20
fatigue, anxiety, and
25:23
depression. Interestingly, there
25:25
was no impact on bloating pain,
25:27
flatulence, or sleep quality. So I
25:29
would say net gain, but not
25:31
a cure all. Also,
25:34
I think this is really important to bear in
25:36
mind that there are other
25:38
things you can do in my opinion
25:40
that are more upstream, more foundational to
25:43
improve histamine. We've discussed the
25:45
one seminal paper, albeit it was
25:47
criticized for some of the methodology,
25:50
nevertheless finding an eight-fold
25:52
reduction in lowering
25:54
histamine when following a low
25:57
FODMAP diet. And
25:59
we've also discussed the discussed in the past, numerous
26:02
clinical trials that have found
26:04
various histamine-mediated conditions can be
26:07
improved by using probiotics. And
26:09
not a special probiotic, not
26:11
a particular histamine-free
26:14
probiotic, any high-quality
26:17
probiotic, because probiotics have
26:19
a net antihistamine effect,
26:21
which is why we see them improve
26:23
food allergy and also seasonal allergy. I
26:27
also assume that something
26:29
that can reduce symptoms and
26:31
allow a chance to rest and
26:34
repair and therefore improve
26:36
endogenous or internal production
26:39
of enzymes could
26:41
also help, like an elemental diet.
26:43
Hasn't been shown, but I would
26:47
be inclined to think that if
26:49
there was a study that found that we
26:51
would see an elemental diet also
26:53
improve histamine levels, knowing
26:55
that an elemental diet,
26:58
definitionally, will be very low
27:00
FODMAP, plus very easy to
27:02
digest, therefore can allow healing.
27:05
The bigger concept to take
27:07
away is that one, DAO supplementation
27:11
may help, but more importantly, in my
27:13
view, two, is that
27:15
things that heal the intestine will
27:17
allow you to have better production
27:20
of your own endogenous or intestinal
27:22
lining-derived histamine-digesting enzyme,
27:25
DAO. Okay,
27:28
so in summary, exercise
27:31
may lead you to, of your own
27:33
accord, eat less. Beet
27:36
root supplementation improves circulation and
27:38
brain health. Polyphenols,
27:41
which are contained in fruits and vegetables,
27:43
spices and herbs, have been shown to
27:45
improve brain health. Ultra-processed
27:48
food, emphasis, ultra, are
27:51
not healthy for you, obviously.
27:54
The Mediterranean diet can improve
27:56
cognition, fish
27:58
oil, and multivitamin supplementation. can
28:00
also improve cognition as can
28:02
fasting and a DAO
28:05
enzyme may also be able to
28:07
help with mood and
28:09
cognitive function. Remember
28:12
the guidelines here are to
28:14
do what you can. Not all of
28:16
these things will be the right maneuver
28:18
or support for all people. You
28:21
don't have to do all of these things and
28:24
approach this with a relaxed perspective. There
28:26
are no miracle cures. There are many
28:29
things you can do to improve your
28:31
health. Take what you like and
28:33
leave what you don't and I'll just echo
28:36
my experience with intermittent fasting was
28:38
helpful for a while and
28:41
eventually that led me to have unhealthy
28:43
behaviors in terms of backloading
28:45
my calories too close to bed, impairing
28:47
my sleep. So as healthy
28:49
as intermittent fasting can be, again
28:52
it won't be the right fit as
28:54
will any of these for everyone all
28:56
the time. So listen to your body.
