adequate amounts of the nutrients that a normal diet lacks. My 3 favorite brain supplements are:Omega - 3 Fish Oils Phosphatidyl Serine Huperzine - A "I learnt so much from Brain Longevity, especially nutrition for the brain. I love the brain nutrients that aid mental clarity and protect the brain from the damaging effects of free radicals."Pillar #2 - STRESS MANAGEMENTAll of my research shows that feeling stressed out and being prone to psychological distress could destroy your memory and may cause Alzheimer's disease.Chronic, unbalanced stress raises cortisol levels in the blood. Cortisol is a memory-robbing chemical, which turns your memory center into a toxic dump, killing brain cells by the thousands. Cortisol stops glucose from entering your neurons, it blocks your neurotransmitter function, and causes brain cells to become injured and die if they are not saved. Stress ManagementStress management techniques such as Tai Chi, massage, guided imagery, yoga, or meditation just are some of the natural ways used to improve your memory. Thanks to my years of meditation practice, I have compiled a series of easy, specific mind/body exercises for stress relief have been part of my clinical program for over a decade and have been found to help improve brainpower and prevent memory loss."I enjoyed Brain Longevity a lot and I even purchased a few copies to give to some of my students. I really enjoyed the complete explanation about the damage stress puts on the brain and body. I has backed up a lot of my preaching about reducing stress in order to be truly healthy."Pillar #3 - EXERCISEWhen looking for exercises to improve your memory, there are three types of exercise that are important:The first is physical exercise, such as walking and aerobic conditioning. Physical exercise has been shown to reduce memory loss by 50%.The second is mental exercise, such as crossword puzzles and other memory-enhancing games, which I call brain aerobics or brain gymnastics. This type of exercise can reduce the development of Alzheimer's by an incredible 70%! Physical ExerciseThe third one is called mind/body exercise. The Alzheimer's Prevention Foundation, of which I am the president and medical director, has concluded a very innovative research project utilizing the same mind/body exercise found in the Better Memory Kit and on the CD. This exercise has a very regenerating, balancing, and memory enhancement effect on the brain.For in-depth information about mental exercise, also read Brain Gymastics and Mindful Fitness."I like Brain Longevity very much because in it I found many answers I was looking for with regards to my brain power."Pillar # 4 - PHARMACEUTICALSThere are a few pharmaceutical drugs that are currently used to treat mild to moderate symptoms of Alzheimer's disease. They are Aricept, Exelon, Namenda, and Reminyl. Please discuss their use with your doctor, but keep in mind that these are real medicines and they may have side effects.Hormone replacement therapy has also shown promise in preventing memory loss, though it has become highly controversial because of negative side effects. I believe that it can be good practice to replace hormones under knowledgeable medical care.Conclusion:By
