Alzheimer’s disease is becoming more common. Dementia rates continue to climb. Brain fog, memory problems, attention disorders, fertility issues, and neurological dysfunction are affecting people at younger ages than many expected.
Most people treat those as separate problems.
Dr. Michael Nehls spent decades researching Alzheimer’s disease and eventually came to a different conclusion.
The deeper he investigated memory loss, cognitive decline, and the brain’s ability to repair itself, the more often he encountered the same pattern. The same substance kept appearing in studies involving memory formation, neurogenesis, stem cell maintenance, fertility, sleep quality, cognitive resilience, and healthy aging.
That substance was lithium.
His new book, The Conspiracy Against Lithium, explores why lithium became known almost exclusively as a psychiatric treatment despite appearing throughout research connected to some of the fastest-growing health challenges of our time.
During this conversation, Dr. Nehls explains how his Alzheimer’s research led him here, why the hippocampus plays such a critical role in memory and learning, and why he believes important pieces of the conversation surrounding dementia, brain health, fertility, sleep quality, and healthy aging have been overlooked.
We brought Dr. Nehls back because the questions raised during his previous appearance were too important to leave unanswered.
