Approaching memory loss through cutting edge assessment and support.

Estrogen has a protective role in brain health.

When levels decline sharply during the menopausal years, the brain can become more vulnerable to neurodegeneration.

Early menopause is associated with a higher risk of Alzheimer’s disease, but even with typical timing, estrogen remains an important therapeutic consideration, especially since nearly two-thirds of Alzheimer’s cases occur in women.

The good news? There are multiple ways to support hormonal balance after menopause, and even more strategies to protect the brain once we understand how lower estrogen affects risk.

At Memory Medicine, hormone panels and menopausal status are always considered when designing personalized protocols.

This is just one reason women face a higher Alzheimer’s risk than men. Follow along for more science-backed insights, and what you can do to protect your brain as you age.

The brain demonstrates a strong capacity to respond to positive change.

Improvements in sleep quality, nutritional patterns, and regular movement
have each been shown to influence brain structure, function, and long-term cognitive health.

Meaningful progress also does not require addressing everything at once!

In 2026, select one area to focus on & begin supporting your brain with intention for long-term resilience and cognitive health.

Being a woman is a recognized risk factor for Alzheimer’s disease

But the encouraging news is that research in this area is rapidly evolving.

We’re gaining a clearer understanding of why women are disproportionately affected, including the roles of hormones, longevity, genetics, and metabolic and inflammatory changes that occur across the lifespan.

Recognizing Alzheimer’s risk factors is a critical step toward prevention, early intervention, and targeted treatment.

In the coming posts, we’ll break down the science behind these sex-specific risks and share evidence-based strategies to help support and protect brain health as you age.

The APOE4 gene is a risk factor, not a diagnosis.

One copy can increase Alzheimer’s risk up to ~3×, and two copies even more, but APOE4 is far from the only driver of disease.

Alzheimer’s is multifactorial.

There are many modifiable risk factors, including sleep, nutrient status, overall diet (what you eat and how you eat), gut health, toxic exposures, stress, movement, oral health, and more.

Addressing these factors is especially important if you carry APOE4, as they can meaningfully reduce overall risk and support brain health.

At Memory Medicine, we assess your individual risk profile and create a personalized plan to reduce risk and address early memory changes.

We offer both preventative and therapeutic programs, PreCODE® and ReCODE®, clinically backed Alzheimer’s protocols designed to help you protect your brain and shape your later years.

Balancing the oral microbiome supports brain health and may play both a preventive and therapeutic role in neurodegenerative disease.

That’s why dental assessments are part of every Memory Medicine program

Here are 6 universal ways to support oral health and a balanced oral microbiome:

• Floss daily to remove plaque and bacteria that brushing alone can’t reach.
• Eat vitamin C–rich foods to support healthy gums and reduce inflammation.
• Reduce sugar intake to limit harmful bacteria that thrive on sugar.
• Stay hydrated to support saliva production and natural bacterial balance.
• Practice nasal breathing to prevent dry mouth and support oral health.
• Use a prebiotic toothpaste to nourish beneficial oral bacteria.

Which habit are you implementing this new year?

Consuming approximately 30 g of protein at breakfast promotes blood sugar stability, an important and modifiable risk factor in cognitive decline, while providing the essential amino acids required for optimal brain function.

Research suggests that adequate morning protein intake helps blunt post-prandial glucose excursions and supports insulin sensitivity.

Higher protein intake at breakfast has also been associated with improved satiety and more favorable glycemic control across the day.

Over time, improved metabolic regulation plays a critical role in supporting long-term brain health and cognitive function.

At Memory Medicine we guide you through a nutrition plan, designed to preserve brain function throughout the lifespan and counter age related memory loss. Reach out today to learn more!

The daily choices we make shape long-term brain health, and cognitive decline that shows up later in life can begin as early as our 30s.

The good news? It’s never too late to adopt practices that support the brain. The brain is always adapting, responding, and rebuilding.

These are three of our favorite habits because gut microbes, sleep quality, and metabolic stability play foundational roles in how the brain functions and ages.

Together, they help regulate inflammation, support neurotransmitters, and protect neurons, creating a brain that’s more resilient over time.

If you want support implementing these habits, reach out. We’ve got your back, and your brain.

The glymphatic system plays a key role in maintaining brain health by moving cerebrospinal fluid through brain tissue to support metabolic waste removal.

What’s becoming increasingly clear is how dependent this system is on vascular health. When the small blood vessels in the brain are damaged, from elevated blood pressure, diabetes, or other cardiovascular stressors, normal fluid movement is disrupted.

That disruption impairs glymphatic flow, reducing the brain’s ability to clear amyloid, tau, and other toxins which may contribute to dementia

Imaging studies now show that common cardiovascular risk factors are consistently associated with measurable changes in glymphatic function, helping explain the strong link between vascular disease and cognitive decline.

Supporting cardiovascular health is one of the most meaningful ways we support long-term brain resilience.

Neuroscience - especially in the field of Alzheimer’s disease - has advanced tremendously in recent years.

Not long ago, Alzheimer’s was thought to be purely genetic and largely unavoidable.

We now know that isn’t true. Research shows that many risk factors are modifiable, and emerging science and clinical experience demonstrate that symptoms of Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia can be improved in the right context.

At Memory Medicine, we’re passionate about preventing neurodegeneration and supporting those already experiencing cognitive changes. Our goal is to shift the paradigm - away from fear and inevitability, and toward empowerment and action.

We use evidence-based approaches informed by research and real-world clinical outcomes to deliver personalized care and the best possible results for each individual.

If you’re experiencing memory concerns or have a family history of cognitive decline, reach out, we’re here to walk you through your options.

These are just a few of the labs we use to uncover your personal, modifiable risk factors for cognitive decline.

From heavy metal exposure and hormonal imbalances to gut health, each test gives us actionable insights into what’s impacting your brain.

We use this information to create a fully personalized protocol designed to support cognitive function, reduce risk, and promote long-term brain health.

Most people think of gut health as a digestion story, but it’s also a brain story.

Research shows the microbiome communicates with the brain through neurotransmitters, metabolites, and immune pathways. When the gut is balanced, this system supports clear thinking, stable mood, and long-term cognitive resilience.

But when dysbiosis develops, it can fuel inflammation and weaken the blood–brain barrier - mechanisms linked to neurodegenerative conditions, including Alzheimer’s.

The takeaway: caring for your gut is one of the most underrated ways to care for your brain.

At memory medicine, our programs all include gut support, reach out today for more information!

While curcumin is not an essential nutrient, it’s a herbal constituent with big brain benefits.

Turmeric in food is great for everyday nourishment, but the curcumin inside it is what delivers the targeted cognitive effects. To access those specific benefits, like supporting mood pathways, protecting neurons, and promoting healthy brain aging - you need curcumin in an isolated, concentrated form.

Curcumin is widely used in preventative brain health, optimization, and even in cases of cognitive dysfunction.

If brain support is your focus, curcumin is worth knowing about - at memory medicine, we figure out exactly what nutrients will support your brain best, get in touch today to schedule your consult today!
