ReThink It: The Brain Health and Longevity Podcast Sande Bargeron A podcast series that is dedicated to bringing hope for lasting healing for those struggling with a brain on fire. The numbers don't lie- new onset dementia is a diagnosis seen with greater frequency. Is it because of chronic brain inflammation that started before you were born? Is it because of undiagnosed stealth infections, toxic burdens or something else?In this podcast, we explore the science of health habits that will change the direction of your brain health forever. You will be challenged, like I was, to RETHINK what it means to be healthy. This podcast is hosted by Sande Bargeron, PhD, who, after years in the medical field, was forced to re-examine foundational health and the meaning of healing.
