Editorial Review:
In Brain Longevity, Dr. Dharma Singh Khalsa demonstrates that the human brain can be cared for, strengthened, and enhanced through an integrated program of diet, lifestyle changes, and medicine. This breakthrough medical program shows us how we can work to improve memory and diminish the effects of age-associated memory loss, keeping our minds youthful, creative, and dynamic.
This revolutionary (and fascinating) book explains how we can postpone the aging of our brains and instead develop extraordinary brain longevity, with memory, concentration, energy, and learning ability even better than what we enjoy in our youth. The BRAIN LONGEVITY program is a four-step plan using modern complementary medicine, from Eastern and Western traditions, and including nutritional therapy, stress management, exercise therapy, and pharmacology, all designed to overcome "normal" brain aging. The program is designed to control a specific adrenal hormone, cortisol, which clinical testing has shown to be toxic to the brain and to become present in excessive levels as we age. Excess cortisol (which is often caused by stress as well as "normal" aging) diminishes the abilities of our brain cells and savages the body's production of hormones, including those that regulate our mood and our sex drive. Dr. Khalsa's holistic program reverses this toxicity and allows the brain to return to vibrancy and optimum mental ability. This is an easy-to-follow plan that can change the lives of millions.

Rating:  - Food for Thought
Easy to read and full of useful information. Dr Dharma's enthusiasm is encouraging to anyone seeking further knowledge in this complex area. His holistic approach rings true to me and I very much appreciate his emphasis on working together with one's usual medical doctor as well as other complementary health professionals. His suggested dosages of nutritional supplements are much higher than what I have found in other literature - this being more 'food for thought'.
Rating:  - must read
Khalsa is very knowledgeable, describing improvements that range from 100% transformation of the individual to modest improvement, which is worth any cost.
Scientifically sound and fascinating reading. I recommend it to everyone.

Rating: - Alternative meets mainstream
Refreshing to find an MD who is open to scientific knowledge not controled by the AMA and the Pharmaceuticals. The author does a good job of summerizing the efficacy of drugs available and safely used in Europe by the anti aging crowd for years but denied by the FDA. A Google search will take you to the sources to buy via the internet. Yoga, nutrition, exersice and vitimin/mineral supplement info and effect is artfully presented with a scientific explaination as to why it works. Clinical evidence ... Read More
