Breakfast With Bridgett is an excellent morning show that provides viewers with a wide range of interesting stories, interviews, weather, and traffic updates. During the month of June, the show is recognizing Alzheimer’s and Brain Awareness Month and recently featured a board-certified clinical neurologist from Health First who shared his latest insights on brain health.
Dr. Anthony LoGalbo discussed how specialized scans can help identify markers for Alzheimer’s but emphasized that they are not a definitive diagnosis. He also talked about medications like Lecanemab that can help slow the progression of the disease but stressed that a cure has not yet been found. Dr. LoGalbo highlighted the importance of health maintenance and active lifestyles in fighting cognitive decline and encouraged viewers to engage in activities that challenge different areas of their brains and step out of their comfort zones.
These activities can help activate various parts of the brain and may be beneficial for individuals concerned about cognitive decline. Health First offers free memory screenings and comprehensive aging services for those interested in more information about brain health. You can catch Breakfast With Bridgett on weekdays at 7:30 am, followed by Weatherwise With Jonathan Kegges and Trooper Steve On Patrol. The show is available on the free News 6 Plus streaming app or clickOrlando.com for more information and to watch the full interview on the latest research in brain health and Alzheimer’s, visit hf.org.
