Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

A Better Brain with Age is described as a groundbreaking guide rooted in rigorous science and practical wisdom. Rich Roll calls it a must-read for anyone committed to unlocking the full potential of their mind and living a vibrant, purposeful life.

World-leading experts in brain health, Drs Ayesha and Dean Sherzai, reveal a startling and paradoxical truth: unlike every other organ in the human body, the brain is actually meant to get better as we age.

By unpacking the latest neuroscientific research and sharing vivid stories from their work with over 30,000 patients, this husband and wife team upend and dismantle every myth that we've internalised about the aging brain: that decline is inevitable, memory loss is uncontrollable, and degenerative diseases can't be avoided.

Not only does A Better Brain with Age illuminate the magnificent potential of this powerful organ, it also reveals how to take control of our cognitive health by adopting a set of simple steps that will expand our brains' functionality and power at every stage of life.

By exploring and fortifying the nine core elements of brain healthβ€”including calm, focus, creativity, purpose and social relationshipsβ€”we can not only avoid the epidemic of cognitive decline, Alzheimer's, and dementia, but also ensure that our brains become stronger each and every year.
