Aggressive Alzheimer's Prevention Protocol

On a recent AMA about nicotine Peter mentioned that he puts people with elevated Alzheimer's risk on what he referred to as "aggressive alzheimer's prevention protocol".

AMA protein

Aloha Dr. Attia, Much appreciation first off to you and your team for all the work you put out for your subscribers and listeners. This has truly been a lifechanging podcast and website to learn from. Would you be willing to do an AMA deep dive on protein in the future? I am sure you could go through the composition, metabolism, and supplementation of protein and have it be extremely valuable to the listeners. For me specifically, two things I would really love to hear your take on are: 1) the efficacy of collagen supplementation, including which types of collagen to supplement, and 2) the timing protein supplements post-workout.
