Brain Performance & Cognitive Health
In today’s competitive landscape, maintaining optimal brain performance is essential for longevity, stamina & success. Whether you’re an entrepreneur, head of household, or a high-powered executive, sustaining high-level focus and mental clarity throughout the day is crucial. In midlife, many individuals find themselves struggling with issues such as fatigue, lack of energy, brain fog, forgetfulness, and inability to sustain motivation and drive.Â
What is Brain Power?
Cognitive and neurological health refers to the health of the brain, how efficiently the brain communicates with the body while maintaining a host of other functions such as memory, judgment, language, spacial sensing, recognition, dealing with colors, images and numbers as well as the ability to learn.
We are now realizing through medical research that many symptoms of cognitive decline actually originate in other parts of the body, not just the brain itself – which is helpful for making our assessement.
Your brain is a power-hungry organ that demands two things: fuel & activation. Fuel in the form of oxygen + glucose, and activation in the form of sensory input from all five senses, including motion or movement.
Issues with fuel delivery are often accepted as “just part of getting older” – when in fact they can be corrected if detected early, helping to restore longevity.
The Purpose of Our Functional Neurology Exam
At Pucci Wellness, we specialize in optimizing brain performance and cognitive health, and our wealth of expertise in brain is one of the many things that separates us from the pack.
The purpose of the exam is to observe the body in physical movement while the brain is cross tasking. Can you sustain normal function or activities without exceeding your brain’s metabolic capacity?Â
Taking athletics as an example, there is a significant energy requirement your brain needs to put you on a path to catch a fly ball. In a snap, your brain not only takes in all kinds of sensory cues, but it sets your body into motion to make the play, while driving fuel in the form of energy to the tissues and muscle groups where it’s needed most.Â
But, your brain needs to be replenished, and it does that by acquiring energy from elsewhere. And more to the point, in the exam we are using the principles of neurology to watch for depletion of those energy reserves, and where we can intervene to help you achieve  peak mental performance.

What About Actual Cognitive Impairment?
Many conventionally trained doctors still believe that memory loss is a result of the aging brain losing chemicals (like acetylcholine) that allow your brain cells to properly communicate.
Most people aren’t taught how to distinguish routine forgetfulness from mild cognitive impairment (MCI), including loss of memory – for example, the inability to quickly remember names and numbers doesn’t hugely impact one’s ability to maintain necessary daily activities.
In fact, what medical research is finally starting to show is the role of hormones and hormone decline relative to brain performance.
