Your brain may age, but it does not have to get old. Dr. Jennings clearly describes how to practically manage the medical and lifestyle variables that can positively impact brain health and the process of aging. Age is a number, but getting old is a lifestyle.

If you are like me, with a family history of dementia or Alzheimers, then you are intrigued by this book because it addresses an area of fear in your life. Experiencing the ravages of these diseases up close and personal, we likely share a fear that our brain will somehow let us down before our body does. Having also been to some of Dr. Jenningss workshops and having my own fascination with the brain, I was more than eager to read his manuscript. And now that I have soaked up every single word, I can attest to this being one of the most valuable books Ive ever read. It will most certainly be a recommended read to my clients, who will benefit from the scientific explanations and practical applications provided. I trust you will also find hope in these pages.

Someone once said, The hero you should be chasing is who you will be ten years from now. We all wonder what we will be like in ten or twenty years. As we age we wonder if we will live long, healthy lives. Tim Jennings addresses our concerns and fears about the aging process and details precise guidelines to ensure a better and healthier future you. As one who has faced the challenge of Alzheimers disease with an aging parent, I found this book to be a hopeful and encouraging lesson in breaking that genetic chain. This book will inspire you to become your future hero.
