Abstract
Dr Ruscio focuses on the link between brain inflammation and neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s but also brain fog and mood. He summarises how it might be possible to reduce neuroinflammation through diet, looking at the links with dysbiosis and leaky gut but also exercise, sleep hygiene, and stress management. A concise overview of the evidence for diets such as Paleo, Low FODMAP, Ketogenic and Low Carb, as well as the Mediterranean diet for reducing inflammation and supporting brain health is provided. The potential for lab testing via anti and pro-inflammatory markers is also reviewed.
