Ageless Brain

Więcej o książce

It's normal for the brain to short-circuit occasionally—people misplace keys or forget where they left their glasses. But what if there were ways to eat, exercise, and live that could eliminate these moments? This guide offers a plan to sharpen memories and minds, helping readers maintain the quick, agile brain they had in their thirties well into their forties. Grounded in recent scientific research that reshapes our understanding of the human brain, the plan includes brain-healthy foods, exercises, and insights on the effects of play and stress on this vital organ. Studies show that the brain continuously generates new neurons, and by adopting brain-healthy habits—ranging from diet and exercise to stress management and positive outlooks—this growth can continue into old age. Caring for our brains like any other organ can enhance mental fitness and even improve physical fitness as a bonus. Readers will learn to: grow new brain cells, think 150% faster, boost memory by up to 25%, reduce Alzheimer's risk factors, identify and avoid harmful substances in food and medicine, lower blood pressure, cholesterol, and sugar levels, and enjoy 45 nourishing recipes.
