Live Better for Your Brain

di Anthea Rowan (Autore)

Yellow Kite, 2027

This book is a powerful and positive narrative guide to better brain health. It combines scientific evidence with personal experience through storytelling, turning complex science into relatable lay-language and giving you the power to improve your brain health today and protect it for tomorrow. Polls show that today adults fear developing dementia more than any other health condition, a fear exacerbated by the widespread belief that there's nothing you can do about it. A global study found that 80% of the public and 65% of healthcare workers believe dementia is a 'normal' part of ageing; astonishingly. Misconceptions like these, together with dread and stigma, creates a barrier to open discussion, early diagnosis, and intervention. Anthea Rowan is just one of millions who has watched a loved one succumb to dementia. Like so many of them, she understood very little about dementia before her mother's diagnosis. What she discovered was both heart-breaking and - the paradox - hopeful: while there is no cure for dementia, science says that half of cases may be preventable through lifestyle. Now we have a real opportunity to take charge of our future health through simple everyday lifestyle habits and adjustments that can have a significant impact on cognitive health and longevity.
