The Integrative Approach to Preventing Cognitive Decline
Dr. Scott Blossom shares how caregiving for his mother during Alzheimer’s catalyzed his pivot from integrative traditions (TCM/Ayurveda) into cognitive health and neuroscience. He explains why cognitive decline behaves like a “systems” challenge—and why multi-factor approaches (sleep, metabolism, inflammation, toxins, movement, stress, and more) are increasingly central to prevention and early intervention.
You’ll also hear why he believes the most scalable “treatment” is a community model: habit change sticks when people feel supported, accountable, and unashamed. The episode closes with a practical “minimum effective dose” playbook—and a reminder that social richness is a serious longevity lever.
