On a recent episode of The Kardashians, Kim Kardashian revealed that a new brain scan, performed by psychiatrist Dr. Daniel Amen, showed parts of her frontal lobes have “low activity.” The doctor pointed out “holes” in the images — signs that brain activity in those regions is lower than expected, and suggested this may make it harder for her to manage stress, especially given everything on her plate right now.
Despite the concerning findings, Dr. Amen reassured Kim that she doesn’t show signs of depression, anxiety, or increased Alzheimer’s risk, and described her brain as “beautiful.” But Kim admitted she was shocked and found it hard to accept, noting the scan “explains a lot” given her busy life: studying for the bar exam, business responsibilities, family pressures, and recent health scares.
