Book Reviews of The Memory Workbook: Breakthrough Techniques to Exercise Your Brain and Improve Your Memory
Book Review: Buck the trend - improve your memory as you age!
Summary: 5 Stars
Worried because you forgot some of the items you were supposed to pick up at the grocery? Afraid that your memory lapses may signal impending Alzheimer's disease?
Ease your mind. This book will help you do just that by explaining memory and providing some very helpful techniques for memory improvement.
Along with the surprisingly enjoyable exercises, Mason and Kohn address the kinds of memory loss that are reversible and discuss why certain types of memory degrade with age. They discuss specific drugs that elderly folk often take and explain what their memory consequences might be. They also discuss the role of diet in memory and offer tips for diet and supplements backed up by the latest research.
Instead of giving up and giving in, help an elder improve their memory. Help yourself to a memory like a steel trap instead of a spaghetti strainer. Get this book, do the exercises, and develop a great memory - no matter what your age!
Five stars!
