As our population ages, many illnesses are increasing in incidence, including a range of cognitive impairment conditions. Dementia is the second leading cause of death in Australia and the number of people affected by it is expected to double in the next 20 years. This webinar will examine the current research into cognitive health with a balanced review of the natural options available.
What are the key herbs and nutrients that can validly boost cognitive function and arrest cognitive decline? Does diet have a role in maintaining or boosting brain health? What are the latest theories regarding the cause of Alzheimer's disease (AD) and how do they inform natural treatments for the prevention of this disorder? Do concepts such as neuro-inflammation and microcirculatory damage credibly inform the current debate over the cause? Can herbs and supplements help patients with existing AD? These vital questions will be explored by Kerry in a wide-ranging review of our current knowledge.
