Description
From the bestselling author and PBS star, a brain healthy program to turn back the clock, and keep your mind sharp and your body fit.
“Dr. Amen magically shows us that the aging of our brain need not match the aging of our bodies.”—Mehmet Oz, M.D.

A healthy brain is the key to staying vibrant and alive for a long time, and in Use Your Brain to Change Your Age, bestselling author and brain expert Dr. Daniel G. Amen shares ten simple steps to boost your brain to help you live longer, look younger, and dramatically decrease your risk for Alzheimer’s disease.
Over the last twenty years at Amen Clinics, Dr. Amen has performed more than 70,000 brain scans on patients from ninety different countries. His brain imaging work has taught him that our brains typically become less active with age and we become more vulnerable to memory problems and depression. Yet, one of the most exciting lessons he has learned is that with a little forethought and a brain-smart plan, you can slow, or even reverse, the aging process in the brain.
Based on the approach that has helped thousands of people at Amen Clinics along with the most cutting-edge research, Dr. Amen’s breakthrough, easy-to-follow antiaging program shows you how to improve memory, focus, and energy; keep your heart and immune system strong; and reduce the outward signs of aging.
By adopting the brain healthy strategies detailed in Use Your Brain to Change Your Age, you can outsmart your genes, put the brakes on aging, and even reverse the aging process. If you change your brain, you can change your life—and your age.

      • source: AudioFile Magazine
      • content: Once again, the author reminds us how important the brain is to how we function physically, intellectually, emotionally, socially, and occupationally--especially as we become older and our most important organ becomes more vulnerable to bad health habits. Dr. Amen's advice is more focused on the psychology of behavior change than in his previous books and is more authentic sounding, too, with its personal references and heartwarming recovery narratives. The genial Marc Cashman is the ideal interpreter because his brand of persuasion is so inviting and easy to hear. His breezy way with the author's words helps them speak to the heart, especially when he's delivering the sections on emotional balance, depression, and the importance of social supports when trying to implement difficult changes.
