Breaks down many important topics on the prevention of neurodegenerative diseases and offers a captivating explanation of the functioning of the brain. The book includes two tests to evaluate the health of your brain

Unlike the cells of almost every other organ which renew themselves in short periods of time, our neurons stay with us for our whole lives. However, we do not pay anywhere near the same amount of attention to their care. Bearing in mind that almost 40% of people will develop some type of serious cerebral illness if they don't do anything to avoid it, care of the brain is vital. As well as preventing neurological disorders, a well cared-for brain helps us to be happier. This book explains how we can care for our neurons, beyond solving crosswords and soduko, through exercising, eating well, socialising, management of our emotions, sleeping habits and developing a cognitive reserve.
