Have you ever gone to the your regular grocery store and forgotten where the milk aisle is? It might be dementia impairing your memory. #dementia #wheresthemilk? #womenshealth Watch the full interview on YouTube @AvaazPodcast @drngrewal.bsky.social @mangoe93.bsky.social

Is forgetfulness the same as dementia? Watch the full interview about dementia, with Dr Nav and Connect FM on our YouTube channel at AvaazPodcast #healthyliving #alzheimers #womenshealth #southasian #fyp @drngrewal.bsky.social @mangoe93.bsky.social

Dementia is not a natural part of getting older. While memory changes happen with age, dementia is a disease that requires medical care and support. Understanding the difference can lead to earlier diagnosis. #dementia #womenshealth #alzheimers @drnavbahal.bsky.social @mangoe93.bsky.social

Research suggests that creatine, commonly known for its role in fitness, may also support brain health. While it’s not a cure, it could offer some protective benefits. Studies are still ongoing, but it’s an area of interest. #creatine #dementia #fyp @drngrewal.bsky.social @mangoe93.bsky.social

Not all dementia risk factors are out of our control. Things like diet, exercise, social connection, and managing health conditions can reduce risk. Making changes earlier in life offers the biggest benefit. Even small steps can protect your brain. @drngrewal.bsky.social @mangoe93.bsky.social

The impact of colonization and racism doesn’t end with one generation — it carries through in health outcomes. Chronic stress can increase the risk of dementia later in life. #DementiaAwareness #BrainHealth #southasianwomen #CaregivingTips @mangoe93.bsky.social @drngrewal.bsky.social

Women are more likely to experience dementia. Hormonal changes, longevity, and social factors all play a role. Understanding this difference is important for prevention and care. Awareness helps us take steps earlier in life to protect brain health. @drngrewal.bsky.social @mangoe93.bsky.social

Genetic testing provides valuable information about your baby’s development. It can identify risks early and give you options for planning and support. For more details listen on your favourite podcast platform to Avaaz! @drngrewal.bsky.social @mangoe93.bsky.social

Can I still have my chai?” Yes, you can still enjoy your morning cup of chai— but moderation is key. High levels of caffeine can increase risks during pregnancy. #Prenatalcare #caffeineduringpregnancy @drngrewal.bsky.social @mangoe93.bsky.social

Gurr and sugar are both sugar. So when using either sweetener, think of moderation. It’s all about balance, not elimination. @drngrewal.bsky.social @mangoe93.bsky.social #prenatalcare

Making sure your vaccines are up to date before pregnancy is key. The chickenpox and rubella vaccines are especially important because these infections can be dangerous for developing babies. The best time to take action is before you get pregnant. @drngrewal.bsky.social @mangoe93.bsky.social

Rubella & chickenpox may seem like childhood illnesses, but they can have serious effects on pregnancy. If you’re not immune, your doctor can guide you on next steps before you conceive. A simple blood test and vaccine can prevent major complications. @mangoes13.bsky.social @drngrewal.bsky.social

Why Thalassemia Screening Matters before Pregnancy. Thalassemia is a genetic blood condition that many people may not know they carry. Screening before pregnancy helps identify risks early and allows you to make informed choices. @mangoe93.bsky.social @drngrewal.bsky.social

Vaccines aren’t just for childhood, they play a crucial role before pregnancy too. Being up to date helps protect you from infections that could be harmful during pregnancy, while also protecting your baby. @mangoe93.bsky.social @drngrewal.bsky.social

The #1 Supplement Before Pregnancy is folic acid. This vitamin helps reduce the risk of serious birth defects and supports healthy early development. Starting before you’re pregnant gives your body the best head start. @drngrewal.bsky.social @drmadhu.bsky.social

Prenatal care isn’t just about checkups — it’s about prevention, guidance, and reassurance. Regular visits help spot potential issues early, protect your health, and support your baby’s development. Think of it as the foundation for a healthier pregnancy and a safer delivery. #prenatalcare
