While growing older is inevitable, many of the troubles we associate with aging--including dementia, disability, and an increased dependence on others--are not. The choices we make now can help us to maintain our vitality, a sharp mind, and our independence as we age.Filled with simple, everyday actions we can take to avoid disease, promote vitality, and prevent dementia and late onset Alzheimer's, The Aging Brain is an easy-to-use guide to maintaining brain and body health throughout our lives. Based on solid, up-to-date scientific research, the interventions explained in this book not only prevent progression toward dementia even in those who have already shown mild cognitive impairment, they also reduce disability and depression and keep people living independently longer than those who do not practice these methods.For anyone hoping to slow the aging process, as well as anyone who acts as a caregiver to someone at risk of or already beginning to suffer from dementia and other age-related diseases, this book offers a hopeful, healthy way forward.
Dr. Jennings writes that we can prevent our brains from Dementia and Alzheimers with a healthy lifestyle. I myself have a question about that but he is the Doctor. Aging and stress can be a factor - so can smoking, obesity, etc. which is most of the people. He does go in to how to care for those with dementia - which was wonderful. If you are looking for answers this book is a good place to start. I received a copy of this book from the Publisher. All the opinions expressed in this review are all my own.
