This Will Blow Your Mind! Part 1 – Alzheimer’s Starts 20 Years Early (And What You Can Do About It Now)

Maria Nicholson, Certified Aging in Place Specialist Season 2 Episode 1

What if Alzheimer’s doesn’t just “suddenly happen” in your 70s or 80s — but actually begins decades earlier in your 40s and 50s? 🤯 In Part 1 of our 3-part series, “This Will Blow Your Mind!”, Maria reveals how the early stages of cognitive decline begin quietly — and what science now shows you can do to protect your brain starting today.

You’ll learn:

  • The surprising ways Alzheimer’s may be silently developing 20 years ahead of diagnosis
  • How lifestyle, nutrition, sleep, and even your social life affect brain aging
  • What proactive steps you can take now to lower your risk (they're easier than you think!)
  • Why early action matters — even if you feel perfectly fine today

This episode is for anyone over 40 who wants to stay sharp, independent, and in control of their future. Whether you're caring for aging parents or just starting to think about your own longevity — this is the eye-opener you can’t afford to miss.

✅ Don’t wait until it’s too late. Take your brain health seriously — and take action now.
