The instant New York Times bestseller The New York Times Best Selling author of The End of Alzheimer's lays out a specific plan to help everyone prevent and reverse cognitive decline or simply maximize brainpower. In The End of Alzheimer's Dale Bredesen laid out the science behind his revolutionary new program that is the first to both prevent and reverse symptoms of Alzheimer's disease. Now he lays out the detailed program he uses with his own patients. Accessible and detailed, it can be tailored to anyone's needs and will enhance cognitive ability at any age. What we call Alzheimer's disease is actually a protective response to a wide variety of insults to the brain: inflammation, insulin resistance, toxins, infections, and inadequate levels of nutrients, hormones, and growth factors. Bredesen starts by having us figure out which of these insults we need to address and continues by laying out a personalized lifestyle plan. Focusing on the Ketoflex 12/3 Diet, which triggers ketosis and lets the brain restore itself with a minimum 12-hour fast, Dr. Bredesen drills down on restorative sleep, targeted supplementation, exercise, and brain training. He also examines the tricky question of toxic exposure and provides workarounds for many difficult problems. The takeaway is that we do not need to do the program perfectly but will see tremendous results if we can do it well enough. With inspiring stories from patients who have reversed cognitive decline and are now thriving, this book shifts the treatment paradigm and offers a new and effective way to enhance cognition as well as unprecedented hope to sufferers of this now no longer deadly disease. Review: Very comprehensive - Don't buy this unless you are willing to invest time and money to save your own life. Dr. Bredesen has spent 30 years studying Alzheimer's and cognitive decline and has developed this program that works to prevent Alzheimer's, improve even advanced cases, and restore the memory of those with early cognitive decline. It's complicated. He and his team provide comprehensive details of the things that damage our brains, from low nutrition, to toxins, pathogens, viruses, leaky gut, mold exposure and on and on. His program starts with finding out if you have the genetic marker for Alzheimer's (the program is different or those that do and those that don't), and testing, testing, testing for the other things. And once you start the lifestyle program, diet, exercise, sleep, you monitor and track changes and progress and make adjustments accordingly, in that way personalizing the program. The book is well written, easy to follow, and based on 30 years of research. There will never be a pill for Alzheimer's because there are many causes and you have to address all of them. This book is all about how to do that. No one else has done the level of research that Dr. Bredesen has. Review: Exceptional books with great solution solutions - This book is exceptional listing the protocols. I also bought the audiobook of the original. Tons of information, very useful and informative.

Get ready for an education about Alzheimer’s!!!
PROs - This book is PACKED with information, graphs & charts complete with analogies. Explains Alzheimer’s Disease and its many manifestations or ‘types’. Once you understand the ‘mechanics’ of how AD starts & progresses, you’re provided solutions to combat the disease and either slow or halt its progress, and even reverse its damage. Results vary depending on a vast number of variables that are all examined. Cons - this is a serious book with a LOT of information. There are a LOT of footnote numbers provided for further reading - but there are no links to the numbers in the text to any references in the book. THAT is a huge miss! Either provide a source for the information highlighted by a footnote number, or simply remove the reference number. Very poor handling of that issue by the author/editor. While not a problem with the book - understand that you WILL need (at a minimum) a full metabolic blood panel and an A1C number, AND a few more specific blood tests (APOE type & copy) to be able to make a good judgement of where you stand with susceptibility and chances of successful corrective actions with AD. I don’t know if a medical doctor can order and discuss with you an APOE study, or an Amyloid study, or a p-tau study. You might have to seek out a neurologist to discuss whether you have ADHD, or even an early onset that can present itself as a mild cognitive disorder. A geneticist may be required for the APOE results. This book may provide more questions than answers regarding AD - BUT the corrective actions of the Keto12/3 diet plan and a better understanding of our current food quality in the U.S. may result in a better and healthier lifestyle for you. Good luck to everyone drawn to this book - your life is about to change - for the better with knowledge and ability to remove the stigma that is Alzheimer’s.

good information, but complicated
Recommended for anyone facing this disease for themselves or a loved one, even if just for the stories of hope. The protocol is very complex, but even a skim yields useful, actionable information.

Excellent
With both of my parents suffering from dementia, I got this book in hopes of learning more about how I can avoid the path they are on. There is a ton of information in here that I already knew, but also a lot more that I didn't - mostly more technical/medical stuff. My husband and I are definitely utilizing some of what we have read and are glad to know we have been following a good portion of it already. I found the book easy to read and understand, and I am sharing it with those I love in hopes that they can start advocating for their health and taking steps to live a healthier life. I don't believe we are all doomed to cognitive decline. Changing your diet and lifestyle can go a long way in improving your healthspan.

eine komplettes Program für die Alzheimerprävention
Mit diesem Buch beschreibt Dale Bredesen mit allern Detials was man machen sollte, um Alzheimer zu vermeiden. Dafür hat sich der Wissenschaftler Bredesen mit Aerzten und Patienten zusammengetan . Es ist ein Meister-Program gelungen, das sehr gut verständlich ist. Danke Dale Bredesen!!
