He discusses his book Dementia Prevention: Using Your Head to Save Your Brain, offering key insights into how dementia is a neurological disorder, not just a psychiatric condition.

In the “Links and Resources” tab below are four sleep-apnea-related papers Dr. Clionsky refers to in the podcast. He also talks about the benefits of exercise and starting prevention early. Dr. Clionsky encourages listeners to assess their health habits and take proactive steps to reduce their dementia risk, providing practical advice and tools to help them stay mentally sharp as they age.
