The Exercise Research Every APOE4 Carrier Needs to Hear

This episode goes deep on the exercise pillar. The four mechanisms connecting movement to brain health, including a 2026 UCSF study that identified a liver enzyme that repairs the blood-brain barrier and what it reveals about why consistency matters at a molecular level.We also get into why getting stronger is different from lifting consistently, what the SMART trial found when it measured both strength and aerobic capacity in the same participants, and why VO2 max may be the most important fitness number you are not tracking.Plus my parents as a natural experiment, where my own protocol stands after two years of deliberate changes, and four questions to audit whether what you are already doing is actually building what your brain needs.The research. The mechanisms. What I changed. What the data showed.Show Notes
