This is off topic but you all are the smartest health “mavens” i know as a group. My 19 year Old son has mono.

Re: How to live to 100 with Dr. Valter Longo (Kevin Rose Podcast)

Dr Bredesen trained physician in DC area?

Hi Julie and all

I have a friend whose 78 yo dad is in good physical shape but his cognition is going downhill quickly. I told her about Dr Breseden's protocol and she is interested. Are there any docs in the DC area trained by dr Bredesen or anyone else recommended for an otherwise healthy man?
