Cognitive Care Management

About Us

Cognitive Care Management® is designed to relieve the pressure on both the healthcare system, our aging population and their families who are in need of strategies and a roadmap to age successfully. We come armed with readily available tools for prevention, education, and resources to put into play immediately, ensuring the best possible health outcomes as you age. The more control we have of our health outcomes, we can have an optimal response to reversing abnormal aging and preventing disease.

Your health shouldn’t suffer because of a broken system.

America spends more on healthcare than any other nation in the world, yet we are becoming increasingly unhealthy in terms of outcomes. In fact, for the first time in recent history, the average life expectancy for U.S. citizens has increased but quality of life based on chronic diseases is declining. There is a glaring disconnect between medical treatment solutions, available information and education on how we can preventatively manage our rate of aging and quality of life. You deserve a more effective solution.

Cognitive Care Checkup®

Ask yourself the following questions.
Now ask them on behalf of a parent, spouse, or loved one.

Am I becoming more forgetful?

Do I have trouble recalling words or names in a conversation?

Do I feel like my brain is in a fog?

Am I starting to misplace things?

Do I sometimes forget why I went somewhere or where I am going?

Am I getting turned around and losing my sense of direction?

Have family or friends told me that I am repeating questions or saying the same thing over and over again?

Have my family or friends noticed changes in my mood or attitude?

Am I worried how well I am going to age in the future?

Have members of my family been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s/dementia?

Cognitive Care Checkup®

The Cognitive Care Checkup® combines a series of screenings and health assessments as well as two separate professional consultations, one by a Cognitive Care Consultant®, the other by a physician specializing in functional medicine. This combination is designed to provide valuable answers, clarity, and information regarding your cognitive health, functional health and rate of aging using research driven, scientifically validated methods and tools.

Results will aid in providing clarity surrounding your risk for Alzheimer’s, cognitive decline, level of functional health and other age-related diseases.

The Cognitive Care Checkup® includes:

  • Complex Medical & Family History Inventory
  • Neuropsychological Screening
  • Functional Health Assessments
  • Functional Nutritional Assessments

Two Professional Consultations:

  • Functional Medicine Physician

Cognitive Care Management® is designed for adults 40 and over.

We put you at the center of the brain health equation.

While middle-age may seem young to be embarking on some screenings, changes in cognition and brain volume begin at 40 but may not be detected until symptoms appear 20 – 25 years later. We are in a unique situation worldwide in which our middle-aged generation has been dubbed the “sandwich generation”, caring both for parents and children. At the same time, we have the largest population of people over the age of 65 in history, creating medical and financial pressure on our healthcare system to support this generation as they transition into old age.

Personalized Planning & Care

Based on the results of your Cognitive Care Checkup®, you will receive a personalized functional health Cognitive Care Plan®.

Whether your Cognitive Care Checkup® reveals you are aging normally or showing any signs of cognitive or functional health changes, we partner with you and provide a detailed roadmap of next steps including medical management, health coaching, referrals to professionals, access to health education and/or counseling services to assist you and your family.

Your Cognitive Care Checkup® empowers you to understand your health, prevent illness, and improve your opportunity to optimize quality of life as you move into your future

Protecting Against Cognitive Decline And Abnormal Aging

Did you know that your brain health is linked to your overall physical health, functional health and performance? In fact, your brain is involved in all aspects of life – It is an organ of health monitoring, regulation, performance, judgment, and decision making. Our brain is the most complex organ in the body as well as the most metabolic organ in the body and requires the largest percentage of calories and oxygen to power it. The brain is also fragile and can be damaged by disease and sub-par lifestyle choices.

As we age, it’s normal for us to become more aware and concerned about our cognitive health and overall wellness. In many instances, it’s the cognitive decline and wellness of a parent, spouse or sibling that becomes an issue of concern. Alzheimer’s disease is the most feared disease for people over the age of 60. Surprisingly, most people don’t know that they can significantly reduce their risk for cognitive decline, Alzheimer’s and other diseases of aging.

Proactive vs. Reactive Aging

Aging with Intention

Aging is a fact of life. While there is no way to avoid it, we do have some control over our rate of aging and are able to manage our quality of life as we age.

When we integrate positive practices with regard to nutrition, movement, sleep and self-care, we engage in in “intentional aging”. and will better be able sustain and active healthy lifestyle well into our later years. Our finely tuned bodies thrive on balance and self-care. Balance and self-care require proactive engagement in order to stay ahead areas where we may be deficient.

The majority of Americans suffer from “accidental aging” and struggle to maintain good quality of life in middle-age and beyond.

Functional Medicine involves understanding the origins, prevention, and treatment of complex, chronic disease.

Functional Medicine

Hallmarks of a Functional Medicine approach include:
Patient-centered care. The focus of functional medicine is on patient-centered care, promoting health as a positive vitality, beyond just the absence of disease.

An integrative, science-based healthcare approach. Functional Medicine practitioners look “upstream” to consider the complex web of interactions in the patient’s history, physiology, and lifestyle that can lead to illness. The unique genetic makeup of each patient is considered, along with both internal (mind, body and spirit) and external (physical and social environment) factors that affect total functioning.

Integrating best practices. Functional Medicine integrates traditional Western medical practices with what are sometimes considered “alternative” or “integrative” medicine, creating a focus on prevention through nutrition, diet, and exercise; use of the latest laboratory testing and other diagnostic techniques; and prescribed combinations of drugs and/or botanical medicines, supplements, therapeutic diets, detoxification programs, or stress-management techniques.

Holistic Approach
We use a science based functional medicine, holistic approach to our process which includes evaluating and addressing the function of the body’s systems. Underlying issues such as genetics, diet, and lifestyle play a large part in our rate of aging and the state of our health. Our approach lends itself to the evaluation of all the body’s systems. By using functional medicine, we can focus on identifying and addressing the underlying cause of illness and distress, rather than suppressing, or treating symptoms. Underlying health issues and treatable pseudo-dementias are often the root causes of cognitive issues.

Functional Nutrition is the backbone to effectively prevent and even reverse chronic disease, as well as support cognitive health and general wellness.

Nutrition

A May 2018 study published in Neurology found that a functionally nutritious diet increases total brain volume, potentially offsetting age-related brain shrinkage. The study established that people who eat a specific diet have bigger brains. Researchers found, after adjusting for age, sex, education, and physical activity, that a higher diet score was linked to larger total brain volume.

A series of six studies appearing in the March 2018 issue of The Journal of Gerontology, found new correlations between a functional diet and healthy aging outcomes. The studies report on the positive relationship between a functional diet and physical and cognitive function, and the role of the diet in reducing inflammation.

The Cognitive Care Management® approach will educate you and lead you to excel in your functional nutrition status for better cognitive health and overall wellbeing.
