Silent Signs of Dementia, Gut Health & How AI is Rewiring Brain Care | Dr. Reza Ghomi

from ¿Que Pasa Boston?

Could the roots of dementia be forming decades before any noticeable memory loss? Host Gaby sits down with renowned neuropsychiatrist, biomedical engineer, and health-tech founder Dr. Reza Ghomi for an eye-opening conversation on modern brain health. From surviving Hodgkin’s lymphoma to pioneering AI-driven medical tools, Dr. Ghomi breaks down the subtle warning signs of neurodegenerative diseases, the gut-brain connection, and why apathy—not sadness—is often the earliest sign of cognitive decline. Key Highlights:  The Silent Warning Signs: Understanding how early dementia presents as apathy and loss of self-awareness.  The Gut-Brain Connection: Why gastrointestinal issues can precede a Parkinson’s diagnosis by 30 to 40 years.  GLP-1s & Neuroinflammation: How metabolic treatments are opening new doors for Alzheimer's and vascular dementia prevention.  AI Breakthroughs: How 30 seconds of voice analysis can screen for early neurological conditions.  Practical Advocacy: Navigating insurance friction, using tools like GoodRx or Cost Plus, and taking charge of family health.
