As we age and our cells degrade, plasmalogens can serve as a critical support. Biomedical engineer and neuroscientist Dayan Goodenowe provides his expertise on how plasmalogens can combat aging.
In this episode of RegenaCast, Sean sits down with Dr. Dayan Goodenowe, a biochemist and neuroscientist, to dive deep into the world of plasmalogens—essential lipids that play a vital role in brain health, heart function, and overall cellular communication. Dr. Goodenowe explains that plasmalogens are crucial components of cell membranes, especially in the brain and heart, and are critical for maintaining proper cell function. He reveals that plasmalogen deficiency is associated with various neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, and even ALS.
The conversation centers around how plasmalogen restoration can help reverse damage caused by diseases and improve cognitive and physical functions. Dr. Goodenowe shares how plasmalogens are essential for communication between brain cells, maintaining myelin (the protective sheath around nerves), and supporting overall cellular health. He explains that the body naturally produces plasmalogens, but as we age or encounter diseases, we lose the ability to make enough, leading to declines in brain function and cellular integrity.
Through decades of research, Dr. Goodenowe has developed plasmalogen supplements that help restore these critical lipids in the body, providing benefits such as enhanced cognition, better cardiovascular health, and improved neuroplasticity. He discusses the impressive clinical results seen in patients, from improved ALS symptoms to reversed brain aging.
Dr. Goodenowe also talks about his research facilities and his work with physicians through his Perpetual Health and Restorative Health clinics. He highlights the importance of targeted lipid therapy and how he collaborates with doctors to integrate plasmalogen supplementation into their treatments for neurodegenerative conditions, cancer, and cardiovascular health.
