And this then... Caused obesity, inflammation... And directly threatens the mitochondria and therefore allows us to understand why people who chronically don't get enough quality sleep, i.e. length and quality are important, are at a significantly increased risk for Alzheimer's.

And, you know, it is what the science is saying. And It is something that night shift workers need to be aware of. I mean, by and large, they don't get as much sleep if you were to measure the quantity as people who have a daytime job, number one. Number two. And probably a lot of quality either, right?

Good luck getting your room to be dark and quiet during the day, especially if you live in a city. So they are at significant increase for a variety of issues, including neurocognitive decline and including various forms of cancer. So it's anything but ideal. Wow.

in any way I don't have no clue if it does or not well there these are very separate issues first let's talk about Botox there is evidence that this botulinum toxin is able to migrate down nerve pathways and may in fact make its way into the brain so really well that's been well described

Unclear. We don't have the research yet. The notion of that happening, I think a toxin is something that we should be considering. Now, gosh, I was, I think, the second person neurologist in Florida to undergo botulinum, Botox training. Really? Yeah. So I was using Botox, not for a cosmetic reason, but to treat people who had various types of... Facial spasms, neck spasms, eye closures, etc.

To relax the space. Yeah, people would have what's called blepharospasm where the eye would close and we could inject the orbicularis oculus muscle so that their eye would relax a little bit. And it was very helpful. And when they had spasmodic torticollis and their neck would turn, we would inject the cernicotomastoid muscle and they would get benefit for a period of a couple of months.

When was this when you got trained? Gosh, this must have been at least 25 years ago.

Oh, it was already being used for cosmetic reasons in my office because in those days, the many members of my office staff would notice if I had any Botox left over after I treated a patient. Do a little on their forehead. No, and I would, I have to admit. But having said that, I think we have to watch this data and

I think that the scientific community, medical community is well aware of that as a potential risk. Really? As it relates to the fillers, I think the biggest issue would be that this is a foreign chemical put in the body by and large. Some of the collagen-based injections are really not that foreign, but I think what you can see are allergic reactions.

And whenever there's an allergic reaction, it's amping up the immune system. creating inflammatory chemicals, what that does in the long term may not be good.
