Episode notes
Hippocampus Shrinkage Impacts Cognition
- The hippocampus shrinks with age, affecting memory and coordination. Alzheimer's causes dramatic hippocampal shrinkage and brain dehydration, impairing cognition severely.
Neural Inflammation Reduces Plasticity
- Neural inflammation causes loss of brain plasticity, the brain's ability to heal itself. Good sleep and exercise support glymphatic circulation that detoxifies and rebuilds brain tissue.
Prioritize Sleep for Memory Encoding
- Ensure good sleep to encode memories properly via the hippocampus. Poor sleep leads to memorization without true learning or recall.
