Neurology and Cognitive Vitality: Strategies for Lifelong Brain Health

Standard labs often miss the earliest signs of neurological decline. Patients with fatigue, brain fog, anxiety, or post-viral syndromes are often dismissed, despite mounting neuroimmune dysfunction.

This session gives you the tools to detect subtle shifts in brain health using Vibrant’s Neural Zoomer Plus, Blood-Brain Barrier Panel, ApoE and MTHFR genotyping, and methylation-focused testing. You’ll learn how to create protocols that reinforce brain resilience, modulate neuroinflammation, and prevent neurodegeneration.

Key Learning Objectives

Cognitive vitality is supported by a clear understanding of the molecular and immune drivers of neurodegeneration. This track helps you apply that science in a clinically actionable way.

• Catch decline early, before imaging does: Use markers like antibodies to myelin basic protein, S100B, alpha-synuclein, and anti-GAD65 to detect early neuroautoimmunity and permeability-related dysfunction.
• Genetically stratify your patients: Understand how genetic risk factors like ApoE4 and MTHFR mutations contribute to mitochondrial stress, homocysteine elevation, and impaired detoxification.
• Balance neurotransmitters and redox pathways: Use methylation and neurotransmitter panels to assess the brain’s biochemical environment, and create personalized support strategies using neurotrophic, antioxidant, and adaptogenic compounds.
• Create structured programs for brain health: Bundle key panels and develop protocols around phased support—methylation first, inflammation second, neurotransmission third—tailored to biomarker patterns and genetic vulnerabilities.

Walk away with protocols, patient communication strategies, and business-ready brain longevity offerings that integrate seamlessly into functional care models.
