Join us on this episode as we welcome Arnold Eiser, an internal medicine physician, as he shares his insights on Alzheimer’s disease. Arnold believes that Alzheimer’s may be largely preventable, despite conventional wisdom suggesting otherwise. He argues that the pathogenesis of Alzheimer’s is largely extracranial and that environmental toxins play a significant role in its development.

Arnold has written a book, Preserving Brain Health in a Toxic Age: New Insights from Neuroscience, Integrative Medicine, and Public Health, as well as several scholarly articles, to share his comprehensive view on the complex interactions between gut-brain, liver-brain, gut-immune, endocrine-immune, and nutrient-immune systems. He believes that a Mediterranean or Japanese diet, exercise, avoiding biotoxins and toxicants, and avoiding tobacco and excessive alcohol consumption are key to preventing Alzheimer’s.

Tune in to hear Arnold share his ideas on how to preserve brain health and prevent Alzheimer’s.

Arnold R. Eiser is an internal medicine physician and author of Preserving Brain Health in a Toxic Age: New Insights from Neuroscience, Integrative Medicine, and Public Health.

He shares his story and discusses his KevinMD article, “Challenging conventional wisdom: How to reduce the risk of Alzheimer’s disease.”

The Podcast by KevinMD is brought to you by the Nuance Dragon Ambient eXperience.

With so many demands on their time, physicians today report record levels of burnout. Burnout is caused by many factors, one of which is clinical documentation. Studies indicate physicians spend two hours documenting care for every hour spent with patients.

At Nuance, we are committed to helping physicians do what you love – care for patients – and spend less time on clinical documentation. The Nuance Dragon Ambient eXperience, or DAX for short, is an AI-powered, ambient clinical intelligence solution that automatically captures patient encounters securely and accurately at the point of care. Physicians who use DAX have reported a 50 percent decrease in documentation time and a 70 percent reduction in feelings of burnout, and 83 percent of patients say their physician is more personable and conversational.

Rediscover the joy of medicine with clinical documentation that writes itself, all within the EHR.
