Today, I sat down for a chat with the extremely intelligent and talented Dr. Leslie Kernisan. As a geriatrician, she works with older adults all the time and she was kind enough to offer a complete brain health checklist for our community.
I hope that you find our conversation useful!
Here are today's community questions:
What do you do to keep your body and brain healthy? Do you exercise? Stay social? Do crossword puzzles? Are there any topics that you would like me to cover with Dr. Leslie Kernisan on a future episode of the show? Please join the conversation.

eye opening information. Gabapentin would be on that list also then?

[@LeslieKernisanMDMPH]

Actually, it's not on my short list of meds that are risky for brain health. It's not anticholinergic. Many antiseizure medications do seem to affect cognitive function (and balance) but gabapentin seems to have less of this side-effect.

That is so great to know I. Thank you so much for answering.
