“We bought ourselves a decade where mom and dad are happy.”

Jeff watched his mom, Barbara, lose her independence to painful gastrointestinal issues — keeping her from the active life she loved.

During her pre-assessments, doctors also identified early signs of dementia. Having that insight helped Jeff and his parents better understand what Barbara was experiencing and reinforced their decision to complete the Aviv Medical Program together.

After the program, Jeff was mind blown. His mom’s symptoms significantly improved, and he feels like he gained not just time — but healthy, joyful years — with both his parents.

“I couldn’t recommend this any more highly after seeing what it’s done for my parents.”

Swipe to see five high-fiber foods that can help you stay on track. ➡️

Your gut and colon health play a vital role in how your entire body functions — from digestion and inflammation control to cognitive performance.

Yet most adults consume only about 15 grams of fiber daily, well below the recommended amount for optimal function.

At Aviv Clinics, nutrition is a foundational part of our comprehensive program. Our clinical dietitians create individualized nutrition strategies designed to support gut and colon health, reduce inflammation, and strengthen cognitive performance.

Greg came to Aviv Clinics seeking relief from years of fibromyalgia, brain fog, and cognitive challenges — all while hoping to protect his brain from a strong family history of dementia.

Before Aviv, daily life was a struggle: he could barely walk, get out of bed, or work, and pain was constant. But just 3 weeks after completing the Aviv Medical Program, Greg felt like himself again. Now, he’s symptom-free and living life fully.

“To just be able to live life naturally instead of fighting my way through life with fibromyalgia... I mean it sounds simple... but it’s huge.”

Fibromyalgia doesn’t have to hold you back. Our comprehensive program can combine hyperbaric oxygen therapy, and advanced cognitive, physical, and nutritional training to help you regain your life.

Aging isn’t about adding more years — it’s about protecting the ones you live.

It’s not your age that limits you. It’s what’s happening beneath the surface — muscle loss, declining energy, slower thinking — that quietly changes how you feel and function over time.

At Aviv, we focus on helping the body and brain stay resilient, capable, and fully functional as you age. Through our proprietary, comprehensive program — which can include our unique HBOT protocol, targeted cognitive and physical training, and personalized nutrition — we address the systems that drive how well you live, not just how long.

As this quote from our founder reminds us, growing older doesn’t have to mean growing weaker or slower. With the right support, you can build strength, preserve clarity, and continue showing up to life with confidence at every stage.

Did you know you can rewire your brain to “see the good”? Practicing gratitude isn’t just a mental exercise — it has measurable benefits for both the brain and body. Research shows that regularly reflecting on what you’re thankful for can:

- Strengthen neural pathways associated with positive thinking and cognitive flexibility
- Reduce stress by lowering cortisol levels
- Support cardiovascular health and regulate blood pressure
- Improve sleep quality and overall emotional resilience

Even small daily habits, like jotting down something you’re grateful for or reflecting on a positive moment when you wake up or go to bed, can help shape the future of your brain.

At Aviv Clinics, we integrate these principles of neuroplasticity into our program to help clients optimize long-term brain and body performance. This Thanksgiving, we’re especially grateful for our clients, alumni, and the entire Aviv community — thank you for being part of our journey!

Happy Thanksgiving from the Aviv Clinics team.
