Want to keep Alzheimer's at bay for years--ideally, forever? Prevention
is the way, and this is the guide. Now in paperback and updated
throughout, The Alzheimer's Prevention Program is essential for
everyone with a family history of Alzheimer's, and for the 80 million
baby boomers who worry whenever they forget someone's name. It's the
book that shows how to strengthen memory and avoid everyday lapses. How
to incorporate the top ten brain-protecting foods into your diet. How to
cross-train your brain, exercising both the right and left hemisphere.
And how to reduce stress, a risk factor for developing dementia and
Alzheimer's, through meditation and 11 other relaxation strategies.
Written by the New York Times bestselling authors of The Memory
Bible, this book is an easy-to-follow regimen based on the latest
comprehensive research into Alzheimer's disease, and especially the
critical connection between lifestyle and susceptibility. The paperback
edition is updated with a brand-new section that answers the most
compelling questions asked of Dr. Small after publication of the first
edition, including: the power of exercise to offset a genetic
predisposition; antibodies that can clear Alzheimer's plaques from the
brain; and promising new treatments, from drugs to deep brain
stimulation.
It's the science-based, breakthrough program that will bring mental
clarity to every day and help you take control of your brain's health.
