Brain Health Q&A

When might I need brain health treatments?

Brain health treatments may be helpful for anyone struggling with mental health challenges, cognitive changes or for people who want to prevent memory decline. Some of the different conditions that might benefit from brain health treatments include:

  • Alzheimer’s disease
  • Non-Alzheimer’s dementias
  • Multiple sclerosis (MS)
  • Parkinson’s disease
  • Traumatic brain injury
  • Family history of neurological conditions
  • Anxiety and depression
  • Insomnia

In addition, brain health treatments can help anyone who’s experiencing changes as they age. When you notice that you’re not as “sharp” as you used to be, it’s quite common to also experience anxiety, depression, insomnia, and other mental health struggles.

You don’t have to live with frequent memory lapses or forgetfulness as you age. Keeping your brain healthy can help you to avoid memory changes, and other negative issues that many people assume are just a part of aging.

How is brain health evaluated?

Better brain health starts with a complete evaluation of your condition and current treatment plan. The Well-Nest uses a functional medicine approach in which they perform comprehensive testing to trace your symptoms back to its source. Just a few of the different things that comprehensive testing evaluates are:

  • Hormones
  • Thyroid function
  • Adrenal function
  • Food sensitivities and allergies
  • Gut health
  • Environmental allergies
  • Inflammatory markers
  • Autoimmune markers

You may need brain-specific testing, such as the Neural Zoomer Plus test through Vibrant America Laboratory. This test can find the autoantibodies involved in many neurological conditions.

Your provider at The Well-Nest can then connect the dots to understand exactly what’s going on in your brain and why you’re experiencing issues.

What do brain health treatments involve?

Brain health treatments are highly customized for your health and treatment goals. Your provider at The Well-Nest creates a two-part plan, starting with immediate relief of any physical symptoms you may have alongside your cognitive changes.

At the same time, you start treatments that help to reverse negative changes in your brain. Treatments usually include lifestyle interventions like changes in your diet along with in-office medical treatments at The Well-Nest.

Your provider may also recommend supplements that can boost your brain health with 100% pure natural ingredients.
