Optimize Your Brain Health
Make the choice today to fuel your brain health.
We’re in a Cognitive Crisis
Over 47 million people worldwide are living with Alzheimer’s disease and other dementias plus the many more millions of people that battle brain fog, difficulty focusing on tasks, and reduced energy…it’s troubling.
And yet, would you believe that most of those cases (yes, even Alzheimer’s!)
are completely preventable?
It’s true. With the right lifestyle changes, you can think clearer, have more energy, and even be happier while decreasing your risks of brain disease and preventing memory loss.
If you’re ready to start thriving now — let’s get started!
Your membership gives you everything you need to upgrade to
your healthiest self — all for just $390 annually

Ingredients are posted in advance, so you can cook along with her if you wish and all sessions are added to the library for viewing at your convenience.
Live monthly coaching
Once or twice a month, Dean & Ayesha host a members-only livestream to coach you on crucial components of the program.
You are welcome to post your questions ahead of time, ask live questions, share your progress with the other members, and get inspired from those pursuing the same goal.
Each course delivers science-based insights on how to keep your mind sharp with lifestyle changes.
And you get access to all of them with one simple, low-cost NEURO Academy subscription.
We’re Dean and Ayesha Sherzai.
We’re practicing neurologists, scientists, authors, parents, and a husband and wife duo that know the value of healthy lifestyle choices and we’ve seen the impact that our NEURO Plan framework has in making the sick healthy and in taking healthy to the next level.
We met as young physicians and in our first conversation we learned that both of our grandparents had spent their remaining days on this Earth suffering from dementia.
It was then that we vowed to do whatever we could to help others avoid this fate and build healthy minds and bodies.
Our academic journey led us to conduct research, treat patients, and serve as professors at Georgetown University, Columbia University, the National Institutes of Health, Mount Sinai, and Loma Linda University, where we serve as the co-directors of The Alzheimer’s Prevention Program.
We’ve worked with devastatingly disease-ridden populations and some of the healthiest people in the world – the Loma Linda 7th Day Adventist population (a Blue Zone community, defined by living measurably longer and healthier lives due to optimal nutrition, exercise, stress management, and social support.).

I love the daily inspiration and thought-provoking articles/discussions. Keeps me motivated - a big plus. The Optimize project suggestions helped me add some needed structure and purpose to my newly retired days and the peace that it all contributes to brain health. I'm learning French on my brisk daily walks, taking up watercolor painting again, playing Mahjongg 2x/week, and am volunteering with our local Youth Literacy project - very important to me and so much fun to work with kids. The biggest positive change this has made to my daily life though is that I am actually enjoying "cooking for one" thanks to Ayesha's cooking sessions and yummy recipes! Nothing short of a miracle. I am gaining some much-needed confidence, adding wonderful variety, and eating better as a result. I wish I could adequately express how grateful I am to the two of you for doing this.

I got my neurological testing results back and I scored so high the tester went back into my 2016 tests to compare raw data. In several areas it was better 😂. In memorizing lists and recall I scored 99 percent because of the Sherzai lesson about chunking data. I’m attributing the improvement to the lifestyle changes I’ve made. Thanks to the Sherzai’s for their awesome program. It works!

One huge change - I discovered I love to cook! I cannot believe how amazing Ayesha’s recipes are (the best!!!) and I enjoy making all of them! I love this group and all that I’ve learned from the [Sherzais]. I really appreciate that you are so trustworthy and care so much.
