What to expect
Mental decline is one of our biggest fears, but Dr Fotuhi provides a necessary dose of reassurance and empowerment in this wonderful new book.' - Dr Sanjay Gupta, neurosurgeon, chief medical correspondent for CNN and bestselling author of Keep Sharp
In just 12 weeks, you can prevent and reverse cognitive decline, boost memory and enhance mental sharpness at any age.
Dr Majid Fotuhi, PhD, world-renowned neurologist and adjunct professor at Johns Hopkins, is leading the charge in revolutionising how we understand human intelligence, brain health and age-related cognitive decline. In this pioneering book, he reveals the true wonder of how the brain works and its infinite potential for growth and change. Supported by over thirty-five years of original research, The Invincible Brain demonstrates how targeted lifestyle changes can prevent, treat and even reverse mild cognitive impairment, early Alzheimer's disease, dementia, ADHD and concussion symptoms.
Dr Fotuhi's twelve-week programme is backed by extraordinary clinical results, published in peer-reviewed scientific journals, showing that more than 80% of patients achieve exceptional improvements in memory, focus and other cognitive functions. In elderly patients with mild cognitive impairment, MRIs show a 3% increase in the volume of the hippocampus, the key brain region for learning and memory.
This actionable guide provides a step-by-step formula for unlocking your brain's hidden potential, building resilience and maximizing mental acuity at any age. In this book, you'll discover:
* The Five Pillars of Brain Health: The most essential strategies to optimize fitness, sleep, nutrition, mindset and brain training for lifelong cognitive vitality.
* A New Understanding of Alzheimer's: The truth about dementia and Alzheimer's, including the latest in testing and treatment.
* Customizable Brain Exercises: Fun, scalable techniques to enhance memory, problem-solving and focus.
* A Brain-Boosting Diet Plan: A nutrient-rich plan linked to fewer Alzheimer's plaques and tangles - keeping your brain up to eighteen years younger.
* Stress Management Tools: DIY biofeedback and mindfulness practices that can boost heart rate variability; a key marker for a calmer and more resilient brain.
* Sleep Optimisation Techniques: Proven methods to boost deep sleep for overnight brain detoxification and renewal.
The Invincible Brain delivers everything you need to empower your brain to thrive - in as little as 12 weeks. Your smarter, sharper future begins now.
