Addressing Cognitive Decline & Mental Energy Slumps Holistically
Middle age is marked by complex cognitive changes, influenced by both brain-specific and systemic factors. These changes include non-linear transformations in memory, reasoning, and attention, highlighting the intricate dynamics of cognitive ageing. Systemic influences, such as inflammatory pathways and peripheral metabolite levels, emphasise the importance of adopting a holistic approach to understanding brain ageing. In women, menopause plays a crucial role by accelerating epigenetic changes and impacting cognitive functions. These insights underscore the need for comprehensive research to better understand and address cognitive health during this pivotal life stage.
Learning outcomes:
- Repair neurotransmitter imbalances, boost dopamine pathways, and support neuroplasticity.
- Calm the amygdala, enhance emotional resilience, and balance cortisol.
- Reduce cognitive fatigue and restore vitality.
- Prevent dementia, cognitive decline and neurodegeneration.
