About book Use Your Brain To Change Your Age: Secrets To Look, Feel, And Think Younger Every Day (2012)
Every now and then I come across a good health, diet, exercise or food book. This one was a random pic at the library and I'm glad it was chosen as I could relate to the topics. As the book started, I wasn't sure where it was going and that it was just a book to kick your butt to start you on an exercise and diet program. However about 1/2 way in and relating many of the topics (i.e. diet, exercise and vitamins), I really started to listen. It took about 1 more week to finish off the books as each CD was ~80 minutes and in that time, i've been sold on trying out some of the processes. First change so far has been to start making my gallon of day ice tea (w/ 4 teabags) using Stevia (2 bags per gallon). The change has been to remove 2 sweet n low and 1 equal packet per gallon. Little strange getting used to the new taste as 1 packet is not enough and 2 are pretty darn sweet. I'm hoping to keep with this. I've also for the last couple of days tried not to have my 2 cans of diet pepsi per day. The diet pepsi might be harder to keep away from, but I'm trying. Second change was to try to get back into the kick of having a multi vitamin per day. I heard a study a couple of years back that zinc was bad for memory as you got older and that it might cause pre-alzheimers. Having someone going through that in family, I quit it immediately. Zinc is still in my caplet, but I'm going to try to start taking it again. Next change that just occurred tonight is the purchase of a fish oil supplement. It was a 650/250 EPH/BPA (not sure of acronmys) mix from the vitamin store. 180 caplets for $45. Not sure the price is reasonable or not, but wanted to give it a try. My wife is not sure why I'm taking a large dose.I'm hoping with the 3 changes, I can knock a couple lbs off the belly that have persistently stayed for the last several years, even after dropping 25 lbs several years ago to the 175 range. Let's see how it goes. Good book for the detail provided. I'm going to look up some more info on the amen clinic site to see the recommendations. Would like to rate a 4.5 vs 4 or 5 but chose 4 for my rank. This is a very positive book about how to improve your chances of living a full healthy life for as long as you can. It had lots of good thoughts and advice such as taking a lot of fish oil, taking vitamin D, doing exercises regularly, eating properly and sleeping at least 7 hrs a night. It was not that original information but it really made you think about what you are doig with your life. I have to admit that I am already doing almost all of the recommendations and still I have memory lapses and sometimes hear myself talking and wonder if my thoughts are even remotely brain controlled. I am interested in having a good old age and I know if Dr Oz were to tell me something would kill me dead I probably wouldn't pay that much attention, after all my kids are raised and my husband is gone, but if he said what I was doing would make me get alzheimers I would quit it that day.
