Enjoyed your video. Now I'm going investigate whey protein for seniors to maintain daily protein requirement.
I am in hospital and seeing alot of older people and I'm thinking, Let go home and I promise to get fit and healthy and stay like it.
I think we need to STOP encouraging people to live longer! One of the things that threatens the viability of society is the low childbirth rate. Declining birthrates are a concern for the capacity of current and future generations to be able to provide for the needs of an aging population. Without the need to pass on the responsibility to women to compensate for a balance of births relative to deaths, perhaps we need to pass that responsibility to the older generations. Once you have passed the point at which you fail to contribute any usefulness to society are you entitled to continue living?. Perhaps Wikipedia and Google have made the Wisdom of Age redundant. In the interests of the sustained existence of the Human species we might just have to accept that longevity of life is NOT in that interest. I'm 82, and, while I do things to maintain my physical well-being, I don't think that my continued health should place any further obligation on the generations that follow me.
Dr Kernisan not only has great content that helps a wide range of people, her communication skills while looking at the camera are excellent. Pace, engagement, and energy level while verbally communicating are better than most others who appear on camera and ask for viewers to pay attention. I look forward to listening more.
Thanks a lot for this helpful video
please do a sepatate video, i had a bad bladder infection but was presenting as diarrhea. I ended up with urosepsis and started with memory issues, so scary. This is common in the elderly but i had never experienced this. Then I read that some people slide right into into dementia. Why is this. I had a family member who died because of the brain damaged from the infection. So 😢
I did not see a category for benzodiazepines?
Great President. Thank you
I am 77 and worry about dementia. My maternal grandfather died of Alzheimer’s. Both grandmothers died ay age 96 with dementia. My mother passed at 87 from ALS and was showing signs of dementia. I am starting to lose my words and occasionally miss an appointment. Something I would never have done years ago. What can I do to reverse this?
Thank you, important information.
His Dr. peter Atia, a researcher or just RUclips sort of chap
I just played pickleball 1st time age 75. My leg muscles are so seriously sore afterwards. I hike and walk and row some and thought my legs were in good shape...wrong.
Very helpful! Easy to follow and with reasonable expectations. I have shared some of your ideas and suggestions with my siblings in China.
Great video, Doc. Thanks!
Let's add all statins to the list.
Dementia or alzheimeir sense of humour u dont mind

I am eating 2 hard boiled eggs a day because of this video. Thank you, Dr.
Have the 'new' H1 antihistamines, bilastine and rupatadine, been studied in this connection? For this particular individual, they've been extremely helpful for urticaria.
Still in bed having period cramps. Paying 50 dollar fortnight and not a regular gymer 😭need motivation
Very informative site. Curious - what is the small round item on the shelf behind your right shoulder?
Always great information. Thank you! As far as looking at cause, treatment, and how lifestyle might affect trajectory of the disease, do you have any clients with Alzheimer's/Dementia using the Bredeson protocol and it helping to slow decline, or who tried it with no positive effects?
Thank you. ❤
Walking and doing half jumping jacks and arm circles with more arm movement can get heart rate up hence light cardio. Lighter on joints but stationary cycle a great option.
As we get older, more diseases gradually appear. This is a very useful RUclips channel that I have learned about.
Very good presentation - thank you. I have been working out with all of those 4 types of exercises outlines here for the past ten months & have noticed positive changes, such as strength & mobility improvements. Exercise absolutely made the good changes happen.
Excellent thanks
Very helpful information! Thank you!
love your channel
My mother has vascular dementia. She had and has many of these symptoms. I really wish I knew more about this 10 years ago. She's stage 7 now and it is just horrible. There is really nothing there anymore. Such a strain on my father and the children. Sometimes I just come home and drink or cry. I don't know how much longer she will drag on like this. It''s awful.
Thank you Dr.!
Well explained and simplified remedies. Easily understandable.😊
it's hard watching an old man who is resolved to an early death. meaning, they knowingly are eating poorly and never even contemplating doing anything remotely strenuous. they carry about them this attitude of "i paid taxes, i guess i will die now"... you cant really reach these types of boomers.
She’s great !
very helpful to me Dr Kernisan, im a year away from 60 but have begun with the strength, balance and flexibility exercises. You've explained it in a conversational way. thanks
Most doctors have not been trained in geriatrics? Wow.
I recently came across an unusual suggestion to self-manage vascular degeneration: humming! I wonder if you have seen anything about this; I omitted to jot down the cite. Apparently humming encourages the body's nitric oxide production, which dilates the arteries; whether this translates to ameliorating CVD I don't know, but it it ties in to ancient traditions of some eastern religious orders. It's certainly inexpensive to try!
I also have heard about possible benefits of humming
Thank you.❤
Since I retired, I go to the gym 5-6 times a week. I do resistance training and cardio. It makes a world of difference. You need to be out of breath a few times a week while doing cardio.
Listening to have a personality of a rock lady!
i have spoken to many older people have memory loss who have come from childhood abuse.
if a person had a head injury do to a auto accident and suffered a concussion what would the mri indicate to the evidence that brain damage would cause memory loss. what diagnostic test by a specialist would be done. would there be more white matter. etc. how does memory loss show up on the brain scan. does it show death in some part of the brain after a concussion ...thank you
there is a article i found in Science America October 2016 called the right pill for you. a personalized genetic medicine offers test to avoid dangerous drug reactions yet doctors are reluctant to use them. by Dina moron..my friend did this test and found out that he could not or should not take 23 drugs based on his DNA. infact 5 would have cause his death,. very good articles. the article talks about drugs where given to kids
i sure hope your not the type of doctor that promotes smoking pot. EVERYONE THAT I HAVE KNOWN FOR 30 YEARS WHO SMOKE THAT STUFF HAVE ALL MEMORY PROBLEMS AND OTHER HEALTH ISSUSES. THERE IS NOTHING THAT CAN EVER CONVINCE ME THAT IT DOESNT EFFECT THE BRAIN WHEN YOU SMOKE IT.
Medications have harmfull side effects, kidney disease, liver congestion harmful, pancreatic harm etc.. correct?
How do overweight/ obese people calculate their ideal protein intake? Base it upon actual weight or the ideal weight for their height and age?
I have lost confidence in doctors except for accidents
Fantastic information -thank you 🙏🏾
Thank you for these videos! So educational and can share w our aging parents
This is great advice but boy, is it long winded!
