Thank you for this informative podcast - I am trying but see the loss in strength - I take yoga 3 x a. week, a weight/strength class, walk with both a senior group and more ambitious group through the woods on uneven ground and faster longer distances (this brought on a bout of sciatica). I am a 77 small woman with known osteoporosis.

Mom.

What about benzodiazepine ?

My father was losed memory before two days what can we do.he going suddenly somewere

AMAZING, Amazing, amazing...content, delivered so thoroughly ..hmm.."satisfyingly"!! This upload could have been three separate segments! Because you so thoroughly introduced the "mental, psych, emotional" picture of aging...I would like to include the benefits of READING..for our mental health. And..reading can be accomplished so much more comprehensively using today's internet resources. Dr. Kernisan you could develop a wonderful podcast about the geriatric benefits of reading. As an aside..and as you are in the geriatric field..I recommend James A. Michener's fiction novel "Recessional" to you. Thank you for the great help you are offering with your Podcast and these KZbin uploads.

thank you po from philippines

The best cure for insomnia is activity. Older people often slow down and stop exercising, which causes restlessness and insomnia. Alas, most American people simply don't walk enough.

The best sedative s Melatonin, available in health stores or on the internet. Natural and safe 1 mg works well.

Excellent video for seniors.

pushing thru a problem w 5k on concrete especially

running walking barefoot in safe grass area is best

Exercise for people with alzheimer : would it be an idea to excercise with play. Think of things like table tennis, cricket, golf.

I am a bit baffled about dr Leslie's talk health conscious proactive people know about side effects, or they will after experiencing them. Leslie mention there are other "things", you can do, to help sleep,anxiety, depression, etc. Without being specific, but everything from pharmacy, is dangerous?? She proberbly never experienced the issues she is talking about. Very often you may have to weigh things up, eg. 5 years of quality of life, as opposed to no medication and 10 years of suffering. CBT, DBT, etc. may work for healty people, experiencing stress, but they demand brain power, a truly depressed, anxious, ADD, etc. person do not possess. And Leslie's scarcampaing, is very unhelpfully, unless she had some science based non pharmaceutical or natural alternatives, I wonder how Leslie can function as a medical doctor, and what she can actually prescribe???

is there any way to improve memory after using these drugs????

Absolutely AweSome video. I am a Recovering from a Spinal Cord Injury (SCI) individual. The challenge to regain and recover is tuff. However, I will continue to educate myself and put forth every effort I can in a constructive manner. You are a blessing to listen to and I am thankful for your presentation. WishingUtheBestAlways 🙏🍀🙏

Be aware of Benzodiazepines medication such as Valium®, Xanax®, Halcion®, Ativan®, and Klonopin®. I seen quite a few people who has lost memory even at a young age. Long term use is not necessary. I even talked to people of all ages who took these meds and they lost day's. I was on Klonopin for years and it took me over a year to come off of them. I have really bad memory loss from them not to mention the anxiety and depression. I'm 56 and I regret being on them. My mother went through the same thing. I started talking to people and i cant believe how many people that took this medication that now has memory loss. Also I noticed it effects women more then men. I'm no doctor I'm just going by my personal research in the past 3 years. Great video. I enjoy all the comments. 🙂👍🧠

With due respect, I find you take too long to say what is needed to be said!

P S.& N.B. Animal protein is EXACTLY THE SAME as plant protein. It's just that the AMOUNTS and DISTRIBUTION are different.

I watched your video because my 63 years old hubby has some memory issues that are concerning and still haven't been diagnosed. Thankfully he's not taking any of these meds but I (57) am on Paroxetine since 2019 for depression. As depression and stress interfere with memory anyway and I'd been feeling some kind of decline I will be talking to our doctor about switching. Thanks so much!

What do you say to ISOMETRIC EXERCISES, which supposedly lower blood pressure?

What about KETTLEBELL exercises, especially the Turkish get up, to fulfill all of the criteria you mentioned?

Is there a PDF that can be downloaded?

Most doctors are trained in dolling out meds Aka poison pills !!!!!

True we see drugged. Up meds. Bynedryl bee s tings. Rash

Doctors and big pharma are committing a genocide on people today more than Hitler did during WW2 !!!!

Balloons were good for my mum when she wasn't verbal or mobile Reminded of party fun . She enjoyed the colour and the fun of keeping the balloon off the ground

How many of the 21 signs do they have to have to be diagnosed

Very knowledgable and articulate - thank you. As a 79 year-old male, no doubt with the advantage of sustained strength training since I was 14, I would say its advantages for the aging is grossly underestimated, and one can see on KZbin evidence of people beginning even in their 80's and making incredible gains - one man now in early 90s deadlifting 120Kg - with expert guidance. At 89Kg I can carry a couple of 48kg kettlebells 35 metres or 20 squats with a 65kg sandbag. But much more important are the benefits and right emphasis. Definitely heavy (according to one's capacity) compound exercises are necessary to give the neuro benefits stimulating endorphins like seratonin, dopamine, testosterone. Also avoiding muscular atrophy, important for musculo-skeletal strength, metabolism, reducing risk of falls and much better recovery and posture and balance. You continue to burn calories hours after your workout. These compound exercises all develop strong core and, with kettle- or dumbbells, grip strength. Few exercises are necessary, and for strength better to keep reps down to about 6 (not 10 and certainly not 15). The most important exercises (with kettlebells or dumbbells) are farmers walk to about 20-30 metres then increase weight, squats, deadlifts (only with expert advice and guidance), shoulder press and (optional) floor press (like bench press on floor). Squats and farmer's carry are effective cardio, but you can make your whole workout cardio by continuing to walk or move between exercises. Never omit warm-up or cool-down. Handling heavier weights also strengthens will, constantly challenging. When brain/muscle connection is developed strength can be enhanced incorporating overcoming isometrics. Motivation is important. There is an abundance of research available if one needs convincing of the enormous advantages of "heavy" compound exercise, especially for the aging. Options to free weights are power bands or tubes or TRX (body weight exercises suspended by a strap fixed at thd too of a door).

Nice narration,reasonable appeal nice voice tone,great reasons to excercise from a different angle i thought the point of not having to move out ,for eg.also the info on protein really important.sarcopenia is held in check and reversed with resistance training.a set of dumbells indoor in place exercise , with some red meat,mince or ground beef if chewing is a problem ,beef bone broth.beef has heme iron which is important for oxygen carrying..your information is first class,nicely said in an encouraging an caring manner,good job doc.thank you.australia.respect

Perhaps if people's, should've started taken vitamins nutrients , for our entirety body's ,there are nutritional supplements that also for our brains,

I just subscribed to your channel. I think you're great. And trust me, I don't like too many Health Professionals because they don't care about you, or they're trying to sell you something; like those long videos that they say are short. lol 🙄 I enjoy your videos very much. I learned a lot. I'll be checking in, Thank you.

NPR is one.

The doctor never mentioned physical and/ or mental abuse!!!!

Great good to know doc ❤

Whar about multi vit.

This is very comprehensive. Very well done. No, she did not speak too much. All valuable information when you listen carefully.

Excellent information however, providing visuals would be helpful to achieve a better understanding of each topic. Thank you

Only for walkıng ı cant do any extras

I'm NOT a parent. My parents died in 2002. I'm 75 and feel I'm in between Stage 2 and Stage 3 of Alzheimers. Trying these days to reverse it.

Helpful thanks

First thing you gotta do is deal with the narcissists in your life. You won't be functional as long as they have a hold on you.

I was hoping you will show specific exercise for seniors but all you did was talk. Not helpful at all.

Ok what kind of exercise are you talking about. Just show us

You might be a good physician - but a person to teach - you are not. Three minutes into the video - you repeatedly say that anticholinergics are not good for the brain. Have you ever thought about how many people have the slightest idea what kind of drugs those are? And no - not all Dr. are uneducated idiots as you make it sound - ever heard about drug "protocol"? Imposed to use a particular drug as a standard solution - since the Pharma industry has paid to get their drug identified as "protocol?

Just list the Drugs already!

The osteoporosis drugs do not work. Do not allow cells to repair. This disease can be managed by diet and exercise. You are a sell out "doc" to pharma. Try continuing education.

I started 65 pushup everyday, 3 times a day, in addition, Ido arm exercise with dumbbell, after about 6 months I can feel my arm muscle get firmer. Maybe bigger, i also jump on a mini trampoline, sliding on a slideboard. fell much better than before. Thanks for confirmation the benefits of exercise in older age

Thank you, excellent video with lots of detailed information.
