From Booklist

Now, those seeking to restore faded powers (listen up, baby boomers) have a trio of brand-new advisers on doing just that. Weil's Eight Weeks to Optimum Health tells how to improve general health, Klatz and Kahn's Grow Young with HGH tells how to delay and reverse the effects of aging, and anesthesiologist-gerontologist Khalsa and journalist Stauth tell how to tone a sagging mind and stave off that curse of long life, Alzheimer's disease. Like fellow physicians Weil and Klatz, Khalsa proffers a program--brain-longevity therapy. Like Klatz, he targets a particular cause of the deterioration that his scheme addresses. But while too little human growth hormone gives rise to the problems Klatz addresses, too much of the hormone cortisol, produced by the body in response to stress and linked to brain damage, causes memory loss and lassitude in particular. Unsurprisingly, stress reduction is one of four basics of Khalsa's program, the others being nutritional therapy, mental and physical exercise, and, when clearly necessary, pharmacology (hormone therapy ala Klatz). Before expounding the program, Khalsa and Stauth explain the development of brain-longevity therapy and how the brain works in health and in sickness, especially Alzheimer's. Fascinating and, Warner hopes (it has scheduled a 100,000-copy first printing), magnetically appealing. Ray Olson --Ce texte provient d'une édition qui n'est plus publiée ou qui est non diponible.


Product Description

HELP! I'M ONLY 40 YEARS OLD AND I CAN'T REMEMBER A THING!

You took care of your body. You've been taking care of your heart. Now you're a model of health and fitness, but your brain is letting you down. Is there anything you can do to stop the slide into forgetfulness, mental dullness, and mental old age?

Dharma Singh Khalsa, M.D., says there is a lot you can do, from cutting your body's output of the adrenal hormone cortisol -- a substance proven to be toxic to human brain cells in excessive concentrations -- to making the powerful connection between a happy spirit and a well-functioning mind. In a book full of great news, dramatic scientific evidence of ancient truths, and practical help, you will learn:
-- how brain-specific supplements such as coenzyme Q-10, phosphatidyl serine, and Gingko biloba can increase short-term memory power
-- which nutrients, antioxidants, and supplements help "feed" your neurotransmitters
-- how to increase your body's production of melatonin with mind-body exercises
-- how to improve your sexual life for a healthier and sharper mind
-- which medications work best and which ones to avoid.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Awesome Book on Naturally Achieving Brain Longevity, Janv. 13 2004
Par Joyce Maxwell (United States) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
I read this book about a year ago and I thought it was excellent. I couldn't put it down and read it in just a few days despite my extremely busy schedule. I'm just basing it off what I can remember.

He talked about the physiology of what happens to the body with stress, exercise, sleep and boy, these were enlightening. I started a few months prior to reading this book seeing the effects of stress, exercise, sleep on weight loss and I came to similar conclusions that Singh did. It really helped validate what I had already learned, but he was able to talk about it more scientifically.

The book is well-written. It also talks about what happens to our bodies when we don't manage stress, get enough sleep, get adequate exercise, and if our diets are poor. He goes into the pros/cons here.

He gives ways to develop brain longevity by fixing the prior and supplementation through vitamins/minerals/natural supplements. It's a great insightful book and life changing.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Boost your brainpower, Déc 27 2003
Par Pieter "Toypom" (Johannesburg) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(TOP 10 REVIEWER)   
This book contains good news based on the latest scientific discoveries, which it uses and applies together with ancient wisdom, to present a practical guide towards retaining and enhancing cognitive ability despite the biological aging process.

The 5 principles of brain longevity are: 1. The brain is flesh and blood; 2.The powers of the brain are virtually limitless; 3. The brain is capable of infinite joy and pleasure; 4. The brain has a plastic quality and can renew itself; 5. Much about the brain remains a mystery.

Part I covers the discovery of brain longevity therapy, Part II explains how the brain works and Part III deals with designing a brain longevity program. This includes the brain longevity diet, nutritional therapy (including the role of vitamins A, B, C and E, minerals like magnesium, selenium and zinc, amino acids like phenylalanine, glutamine, methionine, arginine and tryptophan, substances like co-enzyme Q10 and tonics like gingko biloba, phosphatidyl serine, acetyl-l-carnitine, ginseng, DMAE and green tea.

This section also includes methods of stress management, mind/body exercises and the assessment of the efficacy of various medicines like deprenyl.

Khalsa's book is highly recommended to people who wish to take responsibility for their own health with special emphasis on maintaining the highest levels of cognitive ability. It concludes with a Resources and Referrals section and a thorough index. I also recommend the book Mind Boosters by Ray Sahelian, an examination of natural substances that promote cognitive longevity.

5.0étoiles sur 5 Amazingly Insightful, Fév 5 2003
Par Joyce Maxwell (United States) - Voir tous mes commentaires
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
Dr. Khalsa has some amazing insights into our health. He has confirmed for me the things I'm discovering about my body and the American health system. Before reading his book, I was already doing the majority of the things for his Brain Longevity Program, but found that even at 34 yrs old, I was starting to have some memory issues. As he vividly describes the functions of the brain, various body chemicals, I think my excessive exercise has caused high cortisol levels. I will integrate his medicinal tonics and mind/yogic exercises to complete the program and begin doing that within the next couple weeks. I'm looking forward to improving my memory, brain functions. I love his case studies where he gives examples of all walks of life. This book is very well-written!!!
