The End of Alzheimer's Program

The First Protocol to Enhance Cognition and Reverse Decline at Any Age

By: Dale Bredesen, David Perlmutter - introduction

Narrated by: Marc Cashman

The New York Times Best Selling author of The End of Alzheimer's lays out a specific plan to help everyone prevent and reverse cognitive decline or simply maximize brainpower.

In The End of Alzheimer's Dale Bredesen laid out the science behind his revolutionary new program that is the first to both prevent and reverse symptoms of Alzheimer's disease. Now he lays out the detailed program he uses with his own patients. Accessible and detailed, it can be tailored to anyone's needs and will enhance cognitive ability at any age.

What we call Alzheimer's disease is actually a protective response to a wide variety of insults to the brain: inflammation, insulin resistance, toxins, infections, and inadequate levels of nutrients, hormones, and growth factors. Bredesen starts by having us figure out which of these insults we need to address and continues by laying out a personalized lifestyle plan. Focusing on the Ketoflex 12/3 Diet, which triggers ketosis and lets the brain restore itself with a minimum 12-hour fast, Dr. Bredesen drills down on restorative sleep, targeted supplementation, exercise, and brain training. He also examines the tricky question of toxic exposure and provides workarounds for many difficult problems. The takeaway is that we do not need to do the program perfectly but will see tremendous results if we can do it well enough.

With inspiring stories from patients who have reversed cognitive decline and are now thriving, this book shifts the treatment paradigm and offers a new and effective way to enhance cognition as well as unprecedented hope to sufferers of this now no longer deadly disease.

*Includes a PDF containing relevant illustrations, tables, lists, and food choice examples referenced in the audiobook.

excellent medical solution to a rapidly increasing disease. Every adult should read this book! outstanding!!

There is hope!

Very informative book. If you commit to putting in the hard work you can improve your memory.

A must read for everyone!

No matter your age or health status this book is a must read for everyone. It is so good that after I listened to it I purchased the hardcover book.

Condensed wisdom

This is not an easy read. But so worth it. The knowledge is really condensed

Great resource for those suffering or those caring for those suffering from Alzheimer’s or Dementia

This book is an amazing look at how best to deal with complex chronic disease. So much of our current approach is based on one treatment and one approach. It turns out humans are complex and many of the complex diseases and conditions we face require a multifaceted approach.

I hope people read this and follow the advice. As someone in the late 40s but noticing brain fog and general memory lapse I was terrified as to my future prospects. My grandmother spend 14 with Alzheimer’s and died a shell of her former self and and father has been able to reverse many of his symptoms based on a multifaceted approach (food, sleep, stress management, BHRT, and exercise). He’s almost 80 and doing extremely well.

This book is a great addition to tools we need to overcome this plague.
