Cerebro sin edad / The Ageless Brain

Del autor del bestseller El fin del Alzheimer, llega un enfoque revolucionario para preservar la salud cerebral a partir de hoy mismo.

Si preguntamos a la gente qué es lo que más le asusta del envejecimiento, es probable que haya un aspecto que encabece la lista: la pérdida de memoria. Ya sea porque hayamos visto a seres queridos sufrir enfermedades como la demencia o el Alzheimer , o porque nosotros mismos hayamos empezado a experimentar momentos puntuales de olvido, perder nuestras capacidades cognitivas —y nuestra independencia— es una perspectiva aterradora.

El doctor Dale Bredesen, experto de renombre mundial en neurodegeneración, cuyo innovador protocolo para tratar el deterioro cognitivo ha dado esperanza a miles de personas, describe una vida libre de envejecimiento cerebral. Las enfermedades neurológicas ya no son inevitables, y en Cerebro sin edad comparte una visión extraordinaria de un futuro libre de confusión, sufrimiento mental y otros efectos devastadores de las enfermedades neurológicas, independientemente de nuestros perfiles genéticos.

En este libro revolucionario y esperanzador, el doctor Bredesen comparte nuevas estrategias de precisión para la salud cerebral, así como prometedoras herramientas de detección, prevención y tratamiento, que deben iniciarse mucho antes de que llegue la mediana edad. Tanto si tienes veinte como noventa años, un cerebro sano y altamente funcional es tu mayor activo, y Cerebro sin edad, una lectura imprescindible.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

A New York Times Bestseller!

From the bestselling author of The End of Alzheimer’s, Dr. Dale Bredesen, comes a revolutionary new approach to preventing the onset of neurodegenerative disease and creating sustained brain health.

In recent decades, advances in medicine have changed the way we think about our health. Chronic diseases like obesity, heart disease, and diabetes can be prevented or reversed. Cancer treatment has become targeted and personalized. Gene editing will allow us to eradicate many inherited disorders. But there is one class of conditions that continues to elude researchers and cause tremendous suffering: neurodegenerative disease.

More than six million Americans live with Alzheimer’s disease; by 2050, this number is projected to reach thirteen million. An additional one in ten people over the age of sixty-five have dementia, while 22 percent of older adults live with some form of cognitive impairment. And it isn’t just the elderly who are afflicted; diagnosis rates are rising in younger adults, with women at a higher risk than men. For many―especially those with a genetic predisposition―this fate has seemed inevitable. Until now.

Dr. Dale Bredesen is a pioneer in the field of neurodegenerative research. Lauded for his integrative protocol, he has, in clinical studies, reversed the symptoms of Alzheimer’s and dementia. He shared this information in his bestselling book, The End of Alzheimer’s. But Dr. Bredesen doesn’t want to only treat the symptoms of this devastating illness. He wants to prevent it from developing in the first place.

In The Ageless Brain, Dr. Bredesen will share the latest, cutting-edge science on neurodegeneration, including how misunderstandings of the disease have hindered our efforts to treat it, as well as a preventative program that readers of all ages can put into practice to optimize their cognitive health now and sustain it for years to come. This is a book for everyone who cares about their ability to stay sharp and independent for a lifetime, for those who have witnessed family members decline, and for the many readers who are beginning to experience moments of brain fog or fatigue in middle age, and are concerned about what the future may hold. Just as bestselling authors like Dr. Peter Attia and Dr. Michael Greger have offered essential guidance for maintaining overall health and longevity, Dr. Bredesen has written the only book readers need to retain their vibrant minds―and thrive for a lifetime.
