PhD neuroscientist Ramona von Leden joins Meredith to connect the dots between light, sleep, mitochondrial health, and neurodegeneration. What's actually happening in an Alzheimer's brain? Why is sleep disruption the biggest modifiable risk factor? And what does near-infrared light have to do with clearing amyloid beta? A science-grounded, practical conversation for anyone navigating neurodegeneration in their family — or trying to prevent it.
