Supporting Your Brain Health
Why is proper brain health support important as we age?
“The reason brain health is so important as we age...is because staying sharp [—especially as cognitive demands increase—] helps us age more gracefully. We [all] want to remain sharp, aware, and cognizant in our later years.”
This is why we want to support our brain health as early as possible
What can someone do to support their brain health?
Get proper sleep, diet and exercise
“What someone can do to support their brain health is sort of a bigger picture...Make sure that we're getting enough sleep; we're getting exercise and eating the right foods —especially from a whole foods perspective. Just not [eating only] processed [food].”
What do you do to support your brain health?
“One simple thing I always try to prioritize for my brain health is sleep. If you’re not sleeping enough, you’re not giving your brain enough rest and time to recover.
So if I happen to have a particularly busy week — and you know for us being on call [it happens — I try to make sure I catch up on sleep [over] the following week or following days.”

A Little Background
Why did you decide to become a neurologist?
“[The] reason I became a neurologist is that...my grandfather was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease while I was in medical school. [At the time, I was] still undecided about what I wanted to do.
I had always seen him as a very strong man, [but after his diagnosis], he declined quite rapidly...[That’s when] I realized I wanted to go into neurology—because [with] better subspecialty care within neurology...he could have probably had a much better quality of life.”
