Adaptogens, Nootropics, and Herbs for a Healthier Brain

Presented by: Tereza Hubkov, MD

As pharmaceuticals continue to be disappointing when it comes to prevention or treatment of dementia, or they are plagued with significant side effects, it is time to return to the many natural treatments used by our ancestors for many centuries and now increasingly more validated by modern research. Adaptogenic, nootropic plants, mushrooms, foods and culinary spices have shown significant ability to minimize the pathology of Alzheimer’s dementia, Parkinson’s disease, and other brain health disorders. In this session, participants will learn about the health benefits and safety of Ashwagandha, Reishi, Rhodiola, Schizandra, Lion’s mane, Bacopa, turmeric, garlic, sage, and cinnamon, to name just a few of nature’s broad apothecary.

This presentation was recorded at the 2020 Integrative Healthcare Symposium Annual Conference.
