Download or read book The Brainpower Plan written by Jordan K. Davis and published by Basic Health Publications, Inc.. This book was released on 2005 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The human brain consists of more than 100 billion nerve cells, which die off as people age. Until recently, it was believed that these cells did not regenerate, but recent scientific findings proved that the brain does have nerve cells that are capable of regenerating-a breakthrough that has changed the entire landscape of brain research and treatment. It is this newly discovered ability of the brain to restore, renew, and regenerate that Dr. Jordan K. Davis focuses on in The Brainpower Plan. A neurosurgeon for over thirty years, Dr. Davis puts all the valuable information he has gleaned into this book in order to help you avoid the all-too-prevalent, disastrous choices that can diminish your brainpower, and with it the quality of your life. He outlines the brain's structure and the functions of each part, then discusses the three primary neurological diseases that can befall the brain: strokes, Alzheimer's and other memory-impairment diseases, and Parkinson's disease. He then shows that these are not the unavoidable genetic consequences of the aging process, but are, in most cases, avoidable and treatable. Dr. Davis details all the risk factors for these and other diseases and then presents his Super Strategies for Brain Health. The doctor is emphatic that optimum nutrition creates a favorable environment for the body to boost its immune system, and thereby helps prevent degenerative diseases of the internal organs, most critically the brain. Justifiably convinced of the efficacy of his strategies, Dr. Davis believes that if you follow his advice on nutrition, supplements, exercise, mental stimulation, and moderate lifestyle changes, you will see improvements in just a matter of weeks.

Download or read book Unlock Teen Brainpower written by Judy Willis and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2019-10-22 with total page 157 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All teens today, born after 2000, were thrust into a world with challenges and opportunities non-existent for previous generations. The compelling natures of the internet and social media, combined with the accelerated accumulation of information and changing facts, place exceedingly high demands on their brains' still developing critical control centers. Without guided opportunities, though, their brains will not achieve adequate capability to develop these control centers until their late twenties or beyond. While this book is for teens, it is parents, dedicated to their children's success, who will guide them to the book's resources so they can develop the brain circuits they need now, instead delaying a further ten years. Teens will enjoy learning about the neuroscience describing how their brains learn best and then choosing the activities they like, to activate their brain's neuroplasticity to build their essential control networks now. Through the activities and keys in this book, they will assume the drivers' seats as they boost their focus, organization, planning, motivated effort, thoughtful decision making, emotional self-regulation, and memory construction. As teens build the brains they want by using the guided skills they choose, they will embark on the path to achieving their highest potentials, effectively and joyfully.
