"As we live longer, our biggest concern will be the health of our
minds. We can always use a wheelchair, but life's not much use if
you don't know where to wheel yourself. BrainPower provides
provocative insights and action steps to keep us firing on all
cylinders." Dr. Mehmet Oz, MD, MBA, FACS "BrainPower is a truly
remarkable, must needed effort, (this book is) a formidable weapon
against cognitive/memory affecting scourges like Alzheimer's
Disease or other dementias, as well as disorders resulting in
severe learning difficulties in our children." Dr. Ronald F.
Levant, EdD, ABPP, MBA BrainPower is..."An engaging, scientifically
based, yet highly practical approach describing what we can do for
ourselves and our loved ones, as our Nation's population steadily
matures. Oftentimes confusing medical jargon is straightforwardly
explained with useful and understandable advice proffered.
Suggestions for daily exercises and dietary modifications are
especially helpful." Dr. Patrick DeLeon, PhD, JD, MBA "BrainPower
pulls together all the very latest advances in the science of
keeping well, integrating knowledge from a huge range of
disciplines and resources, the authors provide the best possible
basis for improving our sense of well-being at whatever age. In
particular, its innovative approach to memory and the mind makes it
highly relevant for aging baby boomers looking to keep their
cognitive edge." Dr. Margaret Hannah, MB, M-chir, FFPHM The
International Longevity Center states that even without new
scientific breakthroughs people in industrialized countries could
increase their lifespan ?at least 10-years? by eating less and
exercising more: ?Half the U.S.] population is overweight, 20% are
obese, and only 15% of people over the age of 65 regularly
exercise. Our diets are overwhelmingly conducive to the development
of heart disease, and far too many of us still use tobacco
products.? Staying mentally, physically and emotionally fit is the
key to having ?BrainPower.? It is not that research does not exist,
or even that techniques, medications, and clinical approaches are
missing for Alzheimer's disease and other dementias or memory
problems. What has been missing, however, is a resource where
peer-reviewed studies from various professions are summarized in a
readable, accessible, understandable, and actionable single
source?that is until this book. Evidence-based practice and
practice-based evidence have been brought together in these volumes
in such a way as to provide readers with a strong basis for
understanding the complex and often confounding world of
intellectual decline, confusion, loss of focus, concentration and
memory impairments, debilitating problems that are often attached
to dreaded diagnoses like Alzheimer's Disease, Autistic Spectrum
Disorders and Dyslexia.
