Kim Kardashian has disclosed concerning health updates.
In the latest episode of The Kardashians that aired on Thursday, Kim and Scott Disick met for brain scans following the alarming revelation of her aneurysm. The founder of SKIMS shared with the cameras:
“Scott and I are both going to look at our brains today with Dr. Daniel Amen. He conducts these brain scans to assess our brain health.”
Dr. Amen, a well-known expert in the field, previously appeared on the show in 2022 when he scanned the brains of Khloé Kardashian and Kendall Jenner.

Kim approached the appointment with optimism, stating:
“I have a beautiful brain. I’ve heard that before.”
However, her upbeat attitude quickly shifted when Dr. Amen informed her of “low” brain activity.
Following the scans, Dr. Amen noted that Kim is “not terribly stressed, not anxious, and not depressed.” Thankfully, he also indicated that she is not at an increased risk for Alzheimer’s. He commended her for maintaining a positive outlook, but pointed out “holes” in her brain that suggest “low activity.”
Significant concern!
He elaborated:
“The front part of your brain is less active than it should be. With your frontal lobes functioning as they are, managing stress could become more challenging, which is particularly concerning as you prepare for your exams.”
That’s alarming!
Kim was visibly distressed by this information, responding:
“That just can’t be. It just can’t — I’m not accepting that.”
Dr. Amen suggested that Kim’s results might stem from “chronic stress.” Reflecting on the extensive studying she needed to undertake for the California Bar exam, she remarked:
“I need to create a plan to really address this because I have a lot to accomplish this summer.”
Unfortunately, it has since been reported that Kim did not pass the Bar exam.
Earlier in the season, Kim received the distressing diagnosis of a brain aneurysm, which she believes was exacerbated by the stress stemming from her divorce from former husband Kanye West.
We sincerely hope for Kim’s well-being. Balancing her responsibilities as a mother of four, studying for the Bar, managing multiple businesses, and maintaining her acting career is undoubtedly demanding. We hope she finds a way to effectively manage her stress and achieve a healthy balance in her life.
