It explains why the cognitive decline we expect with age isn’t inevitable at all. And why up to 70 percent of cases of dementia are, in fact, preventable. I’m speaking with neuroscientist Dr Tommy Wood, one of the most respected voices on brain health today. He works with Formula One drivers and elite athletes to deliver peak cognitive and physical performance. He’s a researcher whose work spans brain development, traumatic brain injury and dementia – all of which is compellingly distilled into his new book, The Stimulated Mind. Tommy is a plain speaker and motivating communicator and in this episode he explains why it’s the way you use your brain that matters more than almost anything else you can do for your long-term health. He outlines his 3S framework, Stimulate, Supply and Support, which makes brain health feel like something we can all influence – no expensive supplements or specialist training necessary. Instead it’s learning new skills, trying complex activities, and staying socially connected that counts. Sure, we need good nutrition and plenty of rest. But without cognitive stimulation our brains can’t develop. It’s as much good, says Tommy, as drinking a protein shake but never lifting a weight! We discuss different types of exercise and why our brains need a mix of aerobic, resistance and coordinative activities. Tommy describes taking dance classes or practising racquet sports as one of the best things we can do for our brains. So if you’ve ever fancied playing padel or trying tango? Now you’ve got some extra motivation. Tommy also helps us understand that feeling of being ‘tired yet wired’ – when you’re physically exhausted and mentally overwhelmed, but can’t switch off and rest. I love his solution of restructuring your day around different cognitive gears, to help. Plus, we discuss the hugely important, often overlooked topic of women’s brain health. What does the science really say about cognitive decline in menopause? The outlook is more hopeful than you might have thought. Our conversation is packed with practical advice and evidence-backed insights that I want everyone to hear. Cognitive decline isn’t inevitable. Dementia isn’t your destiny. Whatever your age and whatever your worry, there are so many easy steps you can take, starting today, that are guaranteed to make a difference. #feelbetterlivemore Connect with Dr Wood: Website https://www.drtommywood.com/ Instagram   / drtommywood   Publications https://www.drtommywood.com/publications X   / drragnar   Podcasts: Better Brain Fitness https://www.drtommywood.com/podcast Dr Wood’s book: The Stimulated Mind Future-Proof Your Brain from Dementia and Stay Sharp at Any Age UK https://amzn.to/3Nlzlzy US https://amzn.to/3P4hTjB #feelbetterlivemore #feelbetterlivemorepodcast ------- Order MAKE CHANGE THAT LASTS.
