Publisher's Note Cutting-edge information on how to boost brain power, improve memory, concentration, and creativity, and keep one's mind super-fit throughout life.
The most important organ we possess is our brain. It is our remarkable brain-power that sets us apart from other species and makes us special. And, like our muscles, which can be made stronger with consistent effort, our brain-power, too, can be expanded and strengthened. In fact, each one of us is capable of developing super mind-power.As a cofounder and director of the American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine, Dr. Goldman has at his fingertips all of the latest scientific research on what each of us can do not only to retain all our mental powers as long as we live but also to actually strengthen and improve our mind-power as we age. Now he shares that information, in laymans terms, with numerous self-tests, information charts, and quizzes, so that we all can improve memory, sharpen concentration, reduce stress, learn to sleep better, and--above all--ward off the devastation of Alzheimer's disease. Goldman discusses the many nutritional supplements, vitamins, minerals, and medications that have been proved to enhance mental fitness, providing specific doses and regimens. But he also goes beyond this, detailing particular exercises, activities, and lifestyle techniques designed to sharpen mental acuity. Each chapter ends with a "Brief Refresher" chart of the strategies discussed, and the book concludes with an overall plan for pursuing super mind-power on all fronts.As medicine continues to increase longevity, and it becomes more vital for us all to keep the mind healthy and vigorous, Brain Fitness is destined to become our bible for the new millennium.
