Description


In this step-by-step guide to enhancing cognitive function and fighting—and even reversing—memory loss, Dr. Steven Masley (bestselling author of The 30-Day Heart Tune-Up) lays out a four-pillar diet-and-lifestyle approach to improving brain health, focusing on food, nutrients, exercise, and stress management.

Based on more than a decade of clinical research, The Better Brain Solution provides the tools you need to fight back. Here, Dr. Masley explains exactly how changes in the way you eat and live can reverse elevated blood sugar levels and in the process improve cognitive performance and avert memory loss. Research has shown that insulin resistance, a condition that can lead to diabetes, can also cause memory loss and dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease.

Plus fifty delicious, easy-to-prepare recipes specially designed for optimal brain and body health, along with a practical way to assess cognitive function, and much, much more.

"Alzheimer's, dementia, and cognitive decline are all relentlessly gaining ground. Our brains are under constant attack--what to do? Take control! Dr. Masley expertly shows you how in this important new book."--Dr. Joseph Pizzorno, ND, author of The Toxin Solution

“An authoritative, user-friendly book. Dr. Masley not only addresses insulin resistance, the most common metabolic contributor to cognitive decline, he also addresses the many other potential contributors. Highly recommended for anyone interested in protecting his or her brain.”—Dale Bredesen, MD, best-selling author, The End of Alzheimer’s  

The Better Brain Solution draws upon what our most well respected researchers in the neurosciences are now publishing—Alzheimer’s disease, a disease for which there is no effective treatment, may well be prevented. Masley rightly challenges the notion that we should simply wait for the “magic bullet” as it relates to Alzheimer’s. His recommendations will undoubtedly change the brain health destiny for any reader who follows his advice.”
