I also wonder why???

Mark Cuban questioned why insurers pay $2,500 for MRIs priced at $350 elsewhere. The debate exposed huge gaps in health care pricing.

Today marks another major step forward for the future of neurological care at Espinosa Neuroscience Institute (ENI) and the world.

We are proud to partner with to launch an advanced Brain PET imaging program in , Florida, expanding access to molecular neuroimaging for patients with Alzheimer’s disease and other neurodegenerative disorders.

At ENI, our mission has always been centered on bringing cutting-edge neuroscience directly to the community — combining clinical neurology, advanced diagnostics, research, and innovative therapies under one roof.

The integration of Brain PET imaging represents a transformative opportunity for patients:

• Earlier and more accurate diagnosis

• Improved treatment selection

• Access to emerging disease-modifying therapies

• Longitudinal monitoring of neurodegenerative disease

• A more personalized approach to brain health

As neurologists, we are entering a new era where early detection and precision medicine are becoming central to dementia and Alzheimer’s care. We believe patients should not need to travel to large academic centers to access advanced neuroimaging technologies.

This program reflects our continued commitment to innovation in neurology, including advanced imaging, infusion therapies, concierge neuroscience care, and clinical research.

We are grateful to the Positrigo team for their collaboration and shared vision of expanding access to modern brain imaging technologies.

Innovation in neuroscience happens every day — and this is only the beginning.

🍷 MYTH vs FACT 🧠

❌ MYTH:
“A glass of wine every day is good for your health.”

✅ FACT:
Modern research increasingly shows that alcohol — including wine — may not provide the health benefits once believed. Even moderate alcohol use has been linked to:

• Increased risk of falls and fractures
• Memory decline and dementia
• Sleep disruption
• Higher blood pressure
• Increased cancer risk
• Depression and anxiety
• Brain shrinkage over time

Many of the “heart healthy” benefits once attributed to red wine are now thought to come more from healthy lifestyle patterns, diet, exercise, and social factors — not the alcohol itself.

As we age, alcohol becomes even more dangerous because the brain and body become more vulnerable to balance problems, medication interactions, and cognitive decline.

Your brain health matters.
Protect it. Nourish it. Respect it.

🧠 Healthy living does not require alcohol.

Aging and alcohol do not mix well. Even small amounts of alcohol can significantly increase the risk of falls, fractures, head injuries, memory problems, medication interactions, and hospitalizations in older adults.

A single fall can change a life forever. Protecting brain health, balance, and independence starts with prevention.

At Espinosa Neuroscience Institute, we believe healthy aging means protecting the brain and body — and for many elderly patients, avoiding alcohol completely may be one of the safest choices.

🇺🇸 Memorial Day Weekend Message from
Espinosa Neuroscience Institute

This Memorial Day weekend, we honor and remember the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country. Their courage and service will never be forgotten.

As you spend time with family and friends, we also encourage everyone to prioritize brain health and safety:

• Please avoid drinking and driving
• Wear helmets when biking or riding motorcycles
• Stay hydrated in the Florida heat
• Prevent falls around pools and boats
• Take breaks if traveling long distances
• Check on elderly loved ones and those with memory concerns

At ENI, we are grateful for our patients, families, veterans, and community. Wishing everyone a safe, healthy, and meaningful Memorial Day weekend.
