  • Dr. Michael Lange on Brain Health, Colorectal Cancer, Weight Loss & Omega-3 Myths

    Dr. Michael Lange on Brain Health, Colorectal Cancer, Weight Loss & Omega-3 Myths
    May 9 2026
    ASK THE DR – The Truth About Brain Health, Weight Loss, Omega-3 Scams & Colorectal Cancer Prevention Today on Ask the Dr, Dr. Michael Lange and guest host Roger P. Schulman covered some of the most important health topics affecting Americans today. We started the show discussing cognitive decline, dementia, and Alzheimer’s disease, and the lifestyle strategies that research suggests may help support long-term brain health. Dr. Lange talked about the importance of walking 5,000–7,500 steps daily, resistance training at least twice a week, and especially training the legs several times weekly to help support cognition and healthy aging. The conversation then shifted to nutrition for the brain, including the benefits of carotenoids such as lutein, zeaxanthin, and astaxanthin for working memory and cognitive performance. Dr. Lange also discussed the science behind Fortifeye Focus & Brain and the importance of Cognizin® citicoline, a patented and clinically studied form of citicoline that may help support focus, memory, and brain function. We also discussed the alarming rise in colorectal cancer, especially in younger adults, and why it has become one of the leading causes of cancer-related death in men under 50. Topics included the importance of diet, exercise, hydration, quality sleep, maintaining a healthy weight, and reducing inflammation to help create a healthier internal environment. That naturally led into a discussion on healthy weight management and body composition. Dr. Lange explained how maintaining lean muscle while reducing excess body fat is critical for overall wellness and longevity. We discussed the Fortifeye Fit Meal and the Fortifeye Fit Transformation System™, which combines:✔️ Fortifeye Fit Meal✔️ Fortifeye Rejuvenate✔️ Fortifeye Creapure® Creatine + myHMB® + Vitamin D This doctor-developed system was designed to help support healthy weight loss, muscle development, recovery, and healthy skin, hair, nails, and joints—all at the same time. We also revisited one of today’s hottest topics in nutrition: Omega-3 scams. Dr. Lange explained why many products containing green-lipped mussel, squid oil, krill oil, and other marine oils often provide extremely low, non-therapeutic amounts of omega-3 fatty acids and frequently fail to clearly disclose EPA and DHA levels on the label. Dr. Lange discussed why he recommends high-potency re-esterified triglyceride (rTG) omega-3 formulas like Fortifeye Super Omega and Fortifeye Super Omega-3 Max, which are among the purest and most potent omega-3 formulations available. The show also featured many live callers, testimonials, and great questions from listeners across the country. 🌎 Learn more:Fortifeye Vitamins 📞 Call-in Number: 877-969-8600 #AskTheDr #DrMichaelLange #RogerPSchulman #BrainHealth #CognitiveHealth #Alzheimers #Dementia #Citicoline #Cognizin #Lutein #Astaxanthin #Zeaxanthin #Omega3 #FishOil #rTGomega3 #Fortifeye #FortifeyeFit #WeightLoss #MuscleBuilding #HealthyAging #ColorectalCancer #HealthPodcast #Longevity #Nutrition #Wellness #DryEye #EyeHealth #Supplements #Fitness #AntiInflammatSupport the show: https://www.drmichaellange.com/category/ask-the-doctor/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
