The Brain Health Habits That Matter More Than You Think with Dr. John Lewis (The Velvet)

In honor of Alzheimer's Awareness Month, Kelly sits down with researcher and nutrition expert Dr. John Lewis to talk about what we know about protecting brain health and why these conversations matter long before symptoms appear. Dr. Lewis shares insights from his research on the connection between inflammation, immune health, and cognitive function, including what we've learned about Alzheimer's disease and the role prevention may play in long-term brain health. He also breaks down the top lifestyle habits he believes can help support a healthy brain, the age at which people should start paying closer attention to cognitive health, and some of the lesser-known warning signs of brain dysfunction that often go overlooked. For anyone with a family history of Alzheimer's—as Kelly does—this conversation offers both practical information and hope. From nutrition and exercise to sleep and early awareness, Dr. Lewis provides actionable ways to support your brain health at every stage of life. Whether this topic feels deeply personal or you're simply looking for ways to invest in your future health, this episode is full of insights that just might change the way you think about caring for your brain.
