Episode 241: A New Perspective on Brain Health with Dr. Shaun Kornfeld

Dec 11, 2023

Join us on this episode of the Flex Diet Podcast with Dr. Sean Kornfeld, a functional neurologist at Plasticity Centers in Denver, Colorado. We discuss how the functional neurology approach works to improve brain function by identifying deficient connections in the brain and prescribing exercises to stimulate these areas.

Discover the incredible potential of functional neurology in treating conditions without a specific diagnosis, such as developmental delays or concussions. We also discuss the limitations of imaging in diagnosing brain conditions and emphasize the importance of alternative approaches.
