Shocking New ApoE4 Science About Estrogen and Brain Health!
Normal cholesterol levels don’t mean your brain is safe—especially if you’re a woman with ApoE4.
Normal cholesterol levels don’t mean your brain is safe—especially if you’re a woman with ApoE4.
In this episode, I break down groundbreaking research from the Alzheimer’s Association International Conference on APOE & Lipid Biology (March 2025).
I reveal how female ApoE4 carriers develop cholesterol buildup in brain cells long before cognitive symptoms appear.
You'll learn:
Why standard blood tests can miss early brain dysfunction
How cholesterol gets trapped in endosomes and mitochondria in female APOE4 brains
What this tells us about sex-specific Alzheimer’s risk (and how to intervene early)
This video is for ApoE4 carriers (especially women in midlife) who want to understand their unique risks and take evidence-based steps to reduce them.
