Shownotes

You don’t need a knockout blow to experience a concussion. In fact, many people unknowingly suffer from brain trauma that can silently increase their risk for Alzheimer’s.


In this episode, I interview Dr. Titus Chiu, a functional neurologist and brain health expert, to expose the hidden dangers of undiagnosed concussions. We discuss how leaky brain syndrome, inflammation, and past head injuries may contribute to cognitive decline and, most importantly, what you can do about it.


Dr. Chiu shares his journey of healing from a severe concussion, as well as groundbreaking strategies to restore brain function, prevent dementia, and optimize long-term cognitive health.


Subscribe now to take control of your brain health because it’s never too early (or too late) to protect your brain.


“Through the miracle of neuroplasticity—the amazing ability of your brain to literally change its shape, structure, and function, strengthen weakened connections, and patch up the holes in the ceiling and the roof—healing is possible.” 

~ Dr. Titus Chiu
