When we look at the latest research in longevity, one statistic stands out:
Around 40% of Alzheimer’s cases may be preventable through lifestyle changes.
The numbers are even higher for other brain issues.
However, with so much conflicting "wellness" advice out there, it’s hard to know which changes you should focus on that are actually backed by the most rigorous evidence.
That is why I am excited to share a new resource from leading nutritionist and health researcher, Sarah Otto. She asked 12 of the world’s most renowned and respected experts from Harvard Medical School, Columbia University, Bastyr, and beyond:
"What do YOU do personally to protect your brain?"
Not what they tell patients, but what they actually
do in their own kitchens and routines. And their incredible answers are all compiled for you in one brand-new eBook:
12 Doctors, 12 Brain Secrets.

One of my favorite insights in the book comes from
Dr. Sarah McKay, a neuroscientist and author of
The Women's Brain Book.
She highlights a "Goldilocks zone" for cognitive recovery:
The 23-minute nap.
According to the neurobiology of sleep architecture, napping for exactly 23 minutes allows for memory consolidation and emotional regulation without falling into a "deep sleep" state.
This prevents the "groggy" feeling (sleep inertia) and ensures your nighttime sleep remains undisturbed.
Dr. McKay calls it a "second morning" for the brain.
