Women & Brain Health with Cognition Dietician Barbie Boules RDN
Episode 60
Wednesday, 4 February, 2026

In this episode of Practically Healthy, Dr. Melina Jampolis sits down with cognition dietitian Barbie Boules, RDN, to talk about how women can protect their brain health in midlife and beyond. They break down the real science behind menopause, hormones, cardiometabolic health, sleep, exercise, and nutrition for dementia prevention — without the biohacking hype. You’ll learn why midlife is a critical window for brain health, how everyday habits like strength training, fiber intake, and quality sleep make a difference, and what the evidence actually says about supplements, hormone therapy, and GLP-1 medications. Practical, realistic, and evidence-based — this episode is all about doable steps for a healthier brain and body. For more great brain (and body) info, follow Barbie on IG @the_cognition_dietician
