The Neurogenesis Diet | Dr. Brant Cortright | Talks at Google
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 29 мар 2016
- Important for all knowledge workers, this talk lays out how to powerfully enhance cognitive function by increasing neurogenesis (the process of making new brain cells). New discoveries in neuroscience reveal that your rate of neurogenesis is the most important bio-marker of brain health you’ve never heard of.
Low rates of neurogenesis are associated with cognitive decline, memory problems, stress, anxiety and depression. High rates of neurogenesis are associated with cognitive enhancement, memory improvement, and protection from stress and depression. Most people live in the middle, with adequate but suboptimal brain function.
Brant Cortright, Ph.D., is a professor of psychology at CIIS. He is the author of the #1 international bestseller "The Neurogenesis Diet and Lifestyle: Upgrade Your Brain, Upgrade Your Life". He is a clinical psychologist with a consulting practice in cutting-edge brain health and neuroscience-informed depth therapy.

Some highlights:
7:00 - We want to do those things that increase neurogenesis and stop those things that
slow down the rate of neurogenesis
8:00 - Bioflavonoids
9:00 - Omega-3/Fish-oil
10:00 - Omega-3 brain experiment on monkeys (low vs high omega-3 diet, monkeys fed high omega-3 had much richer and more complex brains )
16:00 -Insulin/Diabetes/Glycation
19:00 - Reduce caffeine (Polyphenols in coffee/tea are good for your brain, too much caffeine is not good long-term)
21:30 - We need several things to work together
22:00 - Exercise (Aerobic) (running etc) exercise for neurogenesis
23:00 - Hesperidin, omega-3 and exercise, synergistic effects in creating new brain cells
24:00 - Sleep
27:00 - Good stress vs bad stress (chronic stress)
31:00 - Alzheimer's/dementia epidemic (42% of people reaching age 85 have Alzheimer's)
(For the latest on Alzheimer's prevention/treatment see Dr. Dale Bredesen's work)
36.00 - Learning new things, ongoing lifetime learning
38:00 - Antidepressants (SSRIs)/Serotonin (Natural compounds/lifestyle changes much better than antidepressants)
40:50 - Mindfulness/Meditation
44:00 - Q&A
Norwegian PURE-3® thank you soooo much
Perfect. Thx
cheers
Thank you!
thank you, you absolute machine god bless. and if you are a god hatter much love
Wow this guy is really soft spoken I can barely hear him on my Bluetooth speaker at full volume. I think I'll just buy the book.
The speaker's book is a useful roadmap to an awake life and a healthy brain.
As a neurodivergent person I find the caffeine in coffee and matcha to be helpful to me, BUT in small doses not huge cup! So my coffee will consist of 3 tablespoons of micotoxin free bulletproof coffee, marine collagen, MCT, stevia. 3 tablespoons of coffee instead of a whole cup lol!
I just like what the doctor is saying. And I d like to thank him as well all the organizing team very much!! Keep it up !
Swimming, cycling, walking, running, and anything that gets your breathing hard .It is the single most powerful thing you can do to increase the rate of Neurogenesis.
In moderation

You literally saved my life. Thank you so much Dr. Cortright! ❤
Preach, Dr. Cortright! Thank you for this valuable information.
Neuroplasticity keeps going til the day we die. It's up to us to keep our brain active and learning new skills throughout.
Great speaker and great TED talk!
That's not TED talk
congratulations to the google audio expert who took care that the volume level is very low
listen with good headphones and it will be fine
The amount of salt here.... The speaker is probably very silent.
Thank you for the great lecture. I have gained quite a bit of knowledge from it.
Obviously there is an extreme shortage of Neurogenesis out there. People not able to think things through. Astromical obesity, diabetes, strokes, and heart attacks - but let's just keep listening to the diet strategies being pushed on us by the food industry.
My long-term memories came back after I stopped drinking coffee, I was more vibrant and my mood less labile.
As an experienced nurse that's cared for Alzheimers patients they all have an excessive sweet tooth!
Interesting observation! Thanks
the meds can have an effect on this
Did you ever have them tested for heavy metals?
Don't you loose tast as you get older hence the preference for sweeter things then a young person?
No
Very educative &informative though I'm watching this 5 years later. Sure we have progressed to more enlightening points.. Look forward to more.
I like to use the Stamets stack and then add fermented turmeric rhizome and raw whole cacao beans to the mix, I find it supercharges the nootropic effects and cognitive/memory benefits
Wonderful Talk
Came here from TED Talk's Sandrine Thuret's speech about this!
calm & well-spoken
Loved it, thank you
Excellent session. Cant agree more.
Sound quality is very poor.
Cut down to one meal a day and see how easy it is to cut carbs. When you are hungry, fat and meat and berries tastes so good
In the part starting at 21:51 he talked about aerobic exercise for neurogenesis; anything that gets your heart beating fast and gets you breathing quickly and hard. He then went on to say that interval training or high intensity training is not good and it needs to be a sustained 20, 30, 40 minute workout. You can make adjustments to your HIIT training to keep your breathing and heart rate high enough for long enough. When you stop moving (or ease up) it takes time for your heart rate and breathing to drop too much. Alter the timing of your ease up periods; don't ease up too much or rest for too long then your heart rate won't drop too much.
INTERESTING AND TIMELY-MANYTHXS
"a little bit of sleep isn't so good" Moms everywhere: "Well we're screwed"
Coffee lifts my mood and energy though. I am not sure about eliminating caffeine.
Thank you very much Doctor! :-)
This is this is great information however if someone is going to give a lecture the last thing they should do is whisper if you're going to give a lecture put the microphone up to your mouth and talk louder
Thanks for the info. For you haters, he's a bit nervous. Yeesh.
Ano wtf the guy is talking about his research and is probably feeling the pressure
I do wish someone had adjusted the mic for his height!
Great information ...thanks
Super curious your thoughts on the developing brain, specifically the hippocampus, and stress response. Do you think leaving a baby to cry past the point of basic survival mode, like classic psychologist teaching on the "cry it out" methods (Ferber and the like,) have a negative impact on the developing hippocampus. Verses responding to a baby's cry quickly. There are few long term studies (past 5 years) on the effects of the "cry it out" method. There are studies to show that baby still wakes during the night if they have been responded to or left to cry it out as a form of extinction sleep training, so the fact that baby gets more sleep in the long run doesn't hold up. I am wondering if increased cortisol has more of an impact on the developing hippocampus and lead to more Alzheimer's cases than we know or think about. Do you have any thoughts on this?
Playing an instrument also is super good for your brain
So is juggling or even throwing something up in the air with one hand and catch it with the other one.
I play the skin flute. Helps a lot.
playing multiple instruments is the best! video games are pretty good also
@@denisblack9897 And Wei Qi
@@Doriesep6622 Yes if playing in person. I tried online and seemed rather addictive. In that way (online) I really doubt that could be good for your (my) brain
Thank you so much Dr. Cortright your speech was very informative, I learned a lot.
Thank for the presentation and great insight brant
too bad,can't hear this brilliant talk!
The audio is too LOW!!?
The video sound is too low.I can hardly hear him!
sound is not his fault, the mic was not adjusted properly, the woman was leaning close to it, but he's a foot taller. They should have given him a clip-on mic
I only have issue with the sound. I'm sure he has some useful information, but I could get anything.
If you're feeling depressed,if you're feeling anxious,or if you're feeling stressed, you probably have a low rate of neurogenesis.
In the last several years giant strides have been made in ability to reverse and/or prevent Alzheimer’s. Books by Dr. Dale Bredesen and Dr. Wesley Youngberg and others are in the forefront of these developments. They recommend much that fosters neurogenesis and many other practices which get very impressive results. While there is still no drug that provides any major aid to dementia, there are many factors that play a huge role in changing the trajectory of dementia.
Good job doc
Homie eating a plate of bacon at 13:09. lol
I am always amazed how many Nutritional experts there are that comment on RUclips videos. Thank goodness we don't have to listen to the PHD's presenting the talks, all we have to do is listen to the commenters who have such insight as This is BS. Thanks
Becoming a nutritionist does not involve as much training as becoming a neuroscientist or dietitian. Be on the lookout for real dietitians - they are able to provide a lot of useful, scientifically valid information.
I don't think any of you know enough to even decide who is right or wrong. Quoting the parrot, quoting the parrot
I am on 300mg of Lythium & I Love Flax Seed and Cinamin
Hello Brant, thank you for this video. I am interested in the concept that you mentioned regarding a cafe that focuses on foods that enhance brain health. How would you recommend that I develop a menu that will meet the benefits to the brain
I want your cafe because I would eat it everyday
Ohhhh thats why I don't read the comments. I forgot...again.
Action to improve neuroplasticity alongside neurogenesis is probably needed
Nobody asked the IQ question. IQ will merely be optimised with this btw. It will not be increased
The best thing you can do for clarity of mind is improved sleep quality with less stimulant intake such as coffee, alcohol, sugar and less stress
But surely the chemicals used to decaffeinate coffee/ green tea etc defeat the purpose? Although the levels of the solvents left in the product pass the level of regulatory concern I'm still not convinced for some reason.
Audio low
Should I take Hesperidin as a supplement, or should I add some lemon juice to my tea?
What about hyperbolic chambers? I'v heard they help build or lengthen Telomere length & shorten or lessen Senescent cells!
What R your thoughts about this??
TURN UP VOLUMN...
turn it up please
For chocolate without theobromine, would cacao powder be good for neurogensis?
I Hope Tomorrow Will Be Just as Good as it is Today To Live Forever...
Hemp Seed Oil has all the Omega oils, more than Fish.
Wish he would have said up front what the diet was, or put it somewhere I could find. Really would have liked to know about it. He hid it very well.
I thought he mentioned a chapter in his book on diet?
is it high carb diet thats causing insulin resistance or frequent carb rich meals/snacking thru ou the day??
Both

That's call a true information 😯
since im not privilage a lot as a kid i though i can never hear stage like this until youtube exist.
Mm Nutrition of Missoula Shout Out!
I wish this was recorded at a louder volume, the material is amazing but hard to hear.
Cannot hear speaker. Introduction was loud and clear, then voice just faded away. You are Google!!! You can fix this easily
Tell my neurologist, and the dietarian!
What your neurologist says
Good info. Not well delivered but stick with it. There is good content here
Does the neurogenesis diet help in drug recovery?
This guy is good at regurgitating
What research says that caffeine is bad in the long run?
I missed the name of the book.
the DHA listed on vegan supplements, would be the amount of DHA in the supplement
I'm wondering if the brain responds better and forms new neurons due to low entropy foods that basically act as highly useable jet fuel. Higher entropy agents such as denuded sugars disrupt the transmission of energy to the cells. Sunlight is low entropy, so of course it is beneficial. Also, foods lower on the food chain (with the Sun and plants being closer to the top) tend to degrade food value as nutrients pass from consumer to consumer (like an insect which eats a plant, then is eaten by a rat, which is eaten by a cat). The cat would have the most degraded or polluted form of energy, whose chain began with the plant the insect ate. Thus, the availability of the energy is the key in the formulation of neurogenesis. Super foods, with their high availability of energy and nutrients, would be the best choice to initiate neurogenesis. Low entropy energy allows the brain to metabolize the energy effectively, creating the opportunity for neuro stimulation. Raw food delivers unaltered chemicals directly to the body, so raw food is probably the way to go since it is low entropy. Efficiency is key, and anything that alters the original construction of the food, degrading it, makes the food higher entropy and thus more toxic. Cooking, processing, altering, all make food correspond to a higher level of entropy. Keeping food on a low entropy level is what makes it salubrious.
+Mace, thank you for taking the time to submit your wisdom. Fantastic reminder about eating food raw moreso than not.
I will try to grow some sprouts on my window sil. Take care.
But you are just repeating things you heard in other videos
Very informative for someone like me who understands the science.
Sadly the resource speaker keeps on clearing his throat, trembling voice and NO visual presentation. And we ask why science fails, it has something to do in how it is being communicated.
this man is whispering...i cant hear him!! what a pity this wasnt sorted at the beginning....
I love this topic about NeuroGenesis in the brain but I can barely hear this guy someone needs to turn up his microphone.
Okay - I had to give up. Is this a lecture or a secret? To whomever is recording - think about it!
listen with headphones and it will be fine
Turn the volume up on your speaker's mike
How about caffeine in green tea?
Turn audio up
Great video! thank you for this valuable info.
Is it better to take hesperidin by pills or directly from orange? How much should I take in each case?
A few things he's not well informed on. A high carb diet can increase your insulin sensitivity (whole foods!). EPA and DHA are not really Omega-3's but derivatives.
But a nice talk, thank you!
Not true at all. High carb is the main cause of insulin resistance. If anything. It does the opposite of increasing insulin sensitivity.
No!
Sound quality so bad, I couldn't hear even with the volume at max. Too bad. I was interested in this
Use a quality set of headphones and you can enjoy the talk much better.
glad they asked about algal omega-3 supplements, i've been wondering the same. However, the bottle does list DHA as an ingredient, not EPA. the bottle i have from Nordic Naturals says that the species used is a unique one which produces DHA. that is Schizochytrium sp. cool!
Sound.
Can someone clarify this. He says to not eat polyunsaturated fats in vegetable oil but then goes on to say we should consume EPA and DHA both of which are polyunsaturated fats. Please explain this apparent contradiction
Humans evolved on the diet of Omega 6 to Omega 3 fat ratio of 1:1 ( means hunter gatherer diet eggs, white meat , red meat and very very low carb , carbs only for survival) today thanks to pathetic modern diet human Omega 6 to 3 Ratio is 20:1 . Which is extremely inflammatory . The fact is in 19th century vegetable oil consumption was practically zero even less than 5gm per day ...today in America it's more than 80gm per day of vegetable oil. We don't need Vegetable oils for Omega 6. The diet on which humans evolved had the perfect balance of Omega 6 and 3 fats.
How does the whole neurogenesis affect Parkinsons? thanks for a great talk!
it heals
@@rajsrivastav6940 Are you serious, I immediately went out and purchased a fish oil with plenty DHA!
@@markshields5015 great ! do intermittent fasting as well......you will be back to normal in no time....
@@markshields5015 , if I remember correctly, I've heard that eating the fish itself is better than eating just the refined fish oil. However, check that out because I might have remembered wrong. Also, watch some videos by people who have gone carnivore. There are quite a few that are claiming they reversed their autoimmune diseases and other diseases be going carnivore. We do know that the Inuit and Maasai lived for thousands of years just fine on carnivore diets.
DHA and EPA are Derivatives of Omega3, they are not Omega3's
U heard someone say
Yea they are, omega-3 refers to the fatty acids where the carbon carbon double bond starts on the third carbon. These can include compounds such as ALA, EPA and DHA.
So coffee should be used only on important days. It should not be an every day habit.
quantity or quality of sleep? if you sleep well you sleep less
Good point. I notice that I sleep less (or at least get out of bed sooner) when I get a good quality sleep.
Am I the only one that heard Salvia??
No. Generally, spices are getting a better and reputation when it comes to health. Salvia was, however, one I had not heard so much about before, so therefore I noticed it when he mentioned exactly that one.
I like the delivery and content but all these claims sound very theoretical. This talk is pretty much word for word verbatim to the one he did on the Daniel Vitalis blog.
Is there a way to grow or connect neurons for speech in a person born aphasia with autistic tendencies, non verbal for words, makes some sounds once and awhile when they are busy, humming noises mostly? If so, which Neurogenesis or which nootropic would you recommend or what group of minerals or vitamens work best for this condition?
Snowfirel I would look into sulforaphane and curcumin. I think the longvida product of curcumin is best for the brain. Also read up on sulforaphane, I have read great things about it regarding autism. Best wishes
Does this apply to schizophrenia?
As a schizophrenic, i am curious as well. Most of the advice probably would help, its just the emotional distress part and sleep where i don't think i could do much about.
Read new book Brain Energy by Chris Palmer

Atomic Frog Productions LLC Manic a bit?
Great content but had great difficult hearing him well. He needs to speak up and not drawn his words and increase his pitch.
Decent lecturer & video. Well worth your time..😁
Green tea has lots of estrogens, so too much will create a hormonal imbalance, so mint teas are my preferred choice/suggestion.
Learning a new skill or language etc will help to create new neural pathways.
Bluelight filters for your glasses & electronics to protect/control the types of light you take in.
Stop using fluoride toothpastes & aluminium based deodrants.
Also, whatever your watching or learning from, crosscheck & take the time to do your own research.
Be more mindful of yourself, your environment & others. Do good things for the sake of doing good.
Knowledge is power, yet only when applied! 😉
Namaskar✌🏼
Mac 3.0 green tea does not have “lots of estrogens” and will not cause hormonal inbalance, please provide a source that confirms this.
As a scientifically literate young man, I enjoyed this man's speech. As an audience member, I despised it. His public speaking skills were dismal! He did not come off as professional as he could've.
I would agree. Very poor speaker for this platform. In part his vocal tone is responsible for this. The information was a little limited however I assume it was for the targeted market.
Not all smart people are good speakers
