A new study shows Bifidobacterium brevi reduces brain inflammation and restores memory in Alzheimer's patients.

The episode begins with Jerry Hickey introducing himself as a pharmacist with a nutrition background. He explains the benefits of probiotics, referencing studies on Bifidobacterium brevi for reducing brain inflammation in Alzheimer's and Parkinson's disease, and Bacillus coagulans for improving immune function. Hickey details how these strains are part of Invite Health's Probiotic HX formula. He transitions to eye health, discussing a study on bilberry, lutein, and zeaxanthin improving dry eyes, and shares a personal anecdote about his wife's eye issues resolving with Macula Advanced HX. Hickey also mentions fish oils enhancing exercise benefits. After a break, Dr. Amanda Williams takes over, promoting a spring cleaning sale with 12 products. She discusses lysine and arginine, citing a 2007 study on their anxiety-reducing effects by lowering cortisol. Williams explains other products like Cerebral Care for brain fog and L-carnosine for anti-aging. She takes calls from listeners: John asks about cysts and is advised to use bromelain and omega-3s; William reports sudden leg weakness and is recommended ubiquinol, methyl B12, and creatine to counteract medication side effects. The episode concludes with promotional messages and contact information.
