Can we outsmart Alzheimer's disease decades before the first symptom appears? In this eye-opening conversation on The Guiding Voice, host Naveen Samala sits down with internationally recognized dementia care educator and author Lisa Skinner to uncover the science of prevention, early red flags, and practical caregiving strategies.
Nearly half of all dementia cases may be tied to modifiable lifestyle choices. Lisa breaks down the "45% advantage," revealing how subtle everyday factors—from interrupted sleep cycles and unmanaged stress to hidden hearing loss—impact long-term cognitive health. Whether you are caring for a loved one or looking to protect your own mind, this masterclass provides the essential blueprint to take control of brain longevity today.
