About this title

Synopsis:

Most people can see the signs in their lives - they can't remember where they put the keys; they forget who they are calling mid-dial; shopping lists are the only things that give them an indication of why they have entered a store. However these are not normal signs of ageing. They are the symptoms of a distressed brain one on its way to more serious conditions that can leave the individual unable to care for him or herself later in life. THE BETTER BRAIN BOOK provide all the tools any reader will need for rejuvenating the mind whether they've become forgetful and less able to focus at work or are trying to help a loved one who has suffered a serious illness. This helpful guide helps you to: · Discover hidden brain toxins in your medicine cabinet your household products and the food you eat · Learn how to bring back clarity and mental vigour · Find out what your doctor won't tell you about preventing Alzheimer's Parkinson's and other neurological conditions. In addition THE BETTER BRAIN BOOK offers a unique three-tiered food and supplement programme that helps heal damage and restore youthful sharpness and memory as well as specific exercises for keeping the mind alert. (You'll never lose your keys again!)

Review:

Praise for The Better Brain Book

"This is the first book I've seen that addresses factors that can influence brain health for better or worse." --Andrew Weil, MD

Praise for Grain Brain

"Dr. Perlmutter outlines an innovative approach to our most fragile organ, the brain. He is an absolute leader in the use of alternative and conventional approaches in the treatment of neurologic disorders. I have referred him patients with wonderful results. He is on the cutting edge and can help change the way we practice medicine." --Mehmet Oz, MD

"Dr. Perlmutter takes us on a detailed tour of the destructive effects that 'healthy whole grains' have on our brains. Modern wheat, in particular, is responsible for destroying more brains in this country than all the strokes, car accidents, and head trauma combined. Dr. Perlmutter makes a persuasive case for this wheat-free approach to preserve brain health and functioning, or to begin the process of reversal." --William Davis, MD, author of Wheat Belly

"If you want to boost your brain power, keep your memory, and lift your mood and energy, as well as heal from a host of other common complaints, Dr. Perlmutter is your guide. This is the definitive instruction book for the care and feeding of your brain!" --Mark Hyman, MD, author of The Blood Sugar Solution

"Dementia and many other brain diseases are not inevitable, nor are they genetic. They are directly and powerfully linked to a diet high in sugar and grains. Grain Brain not only proves this, it also gives you everything you need to know to protect your brain--or a loved one's--now." --Christiane Northrup, MD, author of Women's Bodies, Women's Wisdom
