[@natgarrison2300]

Great interview, wonderful people! Exercise saved me from depression many years ago, am 62 and still run and workout, I always feel better after exercise, it clears all the negativity that accumulates! Am also plant based vegan and thrive on that diet 🤗!

[@wilhelmbeermann2424]

I always listen to Podcasts while biking. And I'm German....so I learn everything in English 😊

[@gaBetibu]

. . . just saw the end of this vid, & you asked for suggestions for future guests....Dr Brooke Goldner is a highly respected & loved by so many of us that I believe she will be a great addition to your list of brilliant & positive forward medical professionals...

[@raoSENSEI]

Brilliant discussion. I owe you BIG money 😊

[@lisaawild]

Thank you so, so much for saving the little dog. She may take a couple of weeks to decompress and her true character come out. Give her lots of patience. You are my heroes.

[@jennyroth6583]

Hearing about things such as neurogenesis and neuroplasticity especially in later stages of life really gives me hope. Thank you for this episode. 😊

[@gaBetibu]

. . . I thoroughly enjoy & learn from these 2 of my Most respected brilliant Drs...God Bless...🥰

[@DFM3333]

❤amazon has their landmark book on brain health and Alzheimer’s prevention. They are a neuroscience couple ❤

[@StephenMarkTurner]

OK, that's a mindblower. The organ that benefits the most from exercise is the brain.

[@dawn7220]

Dr. Peter Attia says the same thing.

[@emilybarry9410]

THANK YOU Simon for another FANTASTIC conversation with the Sherazi's! I am HUGE fans of them and am thinking about joining their Near Academy in order to become a Brain Health coach. Brain health needs to be a core focus of educators, health professionals, governments, etc. with our heavily agin population. Thanks again Simon and the Sherazi's💜🙏🤗

[@sandrasiewbaran9230]

When you find out more about this, please send me a message about their brain health coach program.

[@Scotty-BK]

This was an amazing episode! I work in physical therapy and found so many nuggets of wisdom to share with my patients, especially those that think there is no path forward from their cognitive issues. Much appreciated !

[@mehmetcakir4231]

Thank you Simon for bringing these two fabulous doctors and it has been really addictive conversation so far that I’ve listen about an hour. I must go out to do my breath work now in this early morning but will certainly continue watching. Keep up the good work. I feel sorry for those people who haven’t seen this shows in the last 11 months.

[@lizvantonder5502]

Have your guests done a utube video on adhd, anxiety in children from a teachers/school perspective? Giving ideas etc how to assist the kids in class where everyone ultimately benefits

[@realninja357]

The interview was awesome. These doctors really know their stuff and you can observe just how sharp they are. The key takeaways of leg exercises and aerobic exercise was revelatory. I will be certainly getting back into swimming.

[@bradstell2146]

Thank you so very much. To have doctors like yourselves state the science, and the obvious. It's a great reminder. Laziness is a choice. But, at what cost? Thanks again. Keep up the great work and continue doing videos. Blessings,

[@PaulLeMay3218]

Thank you everyone for this awesome conversation and information. Greatly appreciated. I learned many things. 💚🌱🇨🇦

[@kencarey3477]

[@patangel1652]

Thank you Simon. Loved this interview with these brilliant Doctors.

[@patangel1652]

Brilliant!

[@gaylewilliams1140]

Thankyou so much Simon. This interview is just pure gold.

[@jodrew1845]

They are the true "power couple."

[@lidiaadobato7822]

It was a pleasure to listen to this podcast. I almost understood everything (I'm not a native speaker of English). You speak slowly and most eloquently, thanks for both. I was so looking forward to seeing Hope. Ater such a moving story, we deserved to have at least a glimpse of that dog. Don't forget next time. Thanks again.

[@jennyroth6583]

Me too, I lost my dog this year, her name was also Hope, she suffered from epilepsy but she was a trooper and so sweet

[@leniolesch896]

Thank you for this interesting conversation. I always learn something new when listening to the Sherzais. They are such a fantastic team. I would be very (!) interested in a dedicated episode about bone health, especially for women.

[@Amshatelia88]

Loved this conversation! Great questions on exercise.

[@char2304]

Their book is amazing 👏 love these 2 beautiful humans

[@angelperl77]

Thanks for a very informative interview

[@pdog5091]

Really enjoyed this episode; I feel the body mind connection modern society continually fails to recognise and appreciate. Unrelated but I would love an episode of saturated fat in whole plant forms (e.g, cacao, coconut, peanuts) Can we smash shredded coconut and whole cacao beans regardless of their saturated fat content because they’re whole foods or should we be mindful of our consumption of these foods?

[@karenfarrell6158]

Adopting a cat is so heartwarming as well ❤️❤️

[@Ms-nh8bk]

very interesting...makes me wonder about the blue collar vs. white collar careers. Specifically, the Hvac, electrician, construction worker, who may be using extreme movement and troubleshooting on a daily basis vs. the sedentary office worker who may be cognitively challenged ; but is missing the movement/connection part. Thanks for pushing the intellect Simon!

[@HegelsOwl]

So far as I know, it was Franco Columbo (the bodybuilder) who popularized the idea, in the late 70's, that there was a connection between vigorous exercise and improved intellection. However, most chess grandmasters knew of the connection in the early 1950's from Soviet research, apparently. Smyslov, Petrosian, Tal, Bronstein, Taimonov, Boleslavsky and others, were all avid tennis players, swimmers, etc.

[@stay_cee]

Wonderful content ! Actionable and informative. Sending to loved ones ❤

[@TheProofWithSimonHill]

Glad you think so!

[@PlastikDialog]

Thank you so much, I love your podcast!

[@domart57]

Thanks Simon. Regards from Galicia Spain

[@karlalail8393]

Thank you! My father in law has the second type of MCI mentioned after minute 56:00 and I'm so encouraged that he could see improvement with strength training. I plan to ask his neurologist about that.

[@lama_g]

This is great information. Thanks Simon, you are beautiful

[@kiwiwriter]

Wow, that was certainly enlightening.

[@elizabethoconnor1603]

Great enlightening episode thank you. Generally, there are so many studies on various health topics, any tips for identifying quality of a study? What should we be looking for ?

[@OsorioT]

Like you said "trustworthy recommendations minus the hyperbole" thank you again for spreading great knowledge about our health. 🌱👍

[@lindaripp5902]

Thanks

[@FountainPenInkJournal]

You're a very interesting program.

[@RobSpiderBJJ]

Would of been nice to hear their take on how chronic overtraining effects the brain. Also acute over exertion. An extreme example the CrossFit disease.

[@RobSpiderBJJ]

Great interview though! Sry forgot to mention. Very helpful.

[@plantbasedposer]

I'm wondering what their thoughts are about using ketogenic diets for neuroplasticuty, epilepsy, Alzheimer's and specifically plant-based keto diets

[@plantbasedposer]

I saw one study that showed a reduced sat fat diet had a better effect on epilepsy than the high one

[@janeschade7875]

So I’m confused I’m 64 years old and I walk 2 miles a night at a track getting my heart rate that is normally at 59 up to 109 for 35 minutes but I don’t sweat and I might be able to talk, but I’m going as fast as I can Is that working my legs enough and is that helping my brain any now I’m confused?

[@MissRockOn17]

I want to share it with my father, but he speaks French. How can I help you translate and make CC in French? Thanks!

[@MissRockOn17]

@@TheProofWithSimonHill Yes! Dr Greger does it, so I thought I could help you.

[@mollyroll584]

My mother went to the gym every day for atleast an hour and she has dementia

[@sandrasiewbaran9230]

There are many factors that contribute to dementia. ALL these factors need to be addressed to prevent dementia which includes the health of environment, low stress, amount and quality of sleep, social interaction and nutrition. I am deeply sorry about your mom...

[@karii_on]

Is it bad to work out right before bed for females? Possible perimenopause

[@janburton2980]

[@rungirlTC]

Some good information, but . . . Evolution Schmevolution 🙄 It's a THEORY!!!! Let's stick to the proven facts. Who cares about speculation about what people might have done. So much time wasted on that irrelevant topic. 🤦🏼‍♀️
