The Memory Bible offers a comprehensive approach to keeping your brain fit enough to stave off Alzheimer’s Disease and other forms of dementia. Dr. Gary Small is or was the Director of the UCLA Center on Aging and has advice on all sorts of different things. He presents to us the Memory Tricks popularized by Harry Lorayne along with a number of other things that you can do. The book contains a number of testimonials and stories that are meant to illustrate how insidious memory loss actually is. He gives out the standards of what constitutes memory loss and other disorders while telling us that it is merely a way to sort it categorically.
Keep in mind, just because you have some memory loss doesn’t mean that you automatically have Alzheimer’s disease or some form of dementia. Dr. Small assures us that the only way to tell is to have a complete physical examination and some form of Brain Imaging Scan. The preferred one is the PET or Positron Emission Tomography scan. Going back to what I said, a number of factors can contribute to memory loss or generally poor memory with Stress being a massive culprit. In our interconnected world of Smartphones and worldwide Wi-Fi access, it comes as no surprise that people are stressed more easily. The same thing goes for lack of sleep. People say it all the time, but I will say it again, sleep is important.
If you read this book, you should understand that it was published in 2002. As of this review, that is 17 years ago. I don’t know what advances have been made in the Alzheimer’s field, but I believe they have a more capable understanding now then they did back then. I mean, for some of us seventeen years is a long time. In any case, this book is still useful for prevention and for general health issues. I will probably never eat a totally vegan diet, but this book has plenty of good advice. ( )
