Mind Boosters, A Guide to Natural Supplements That Enhance Your Mind, Memory, and Mood

Everyone forgets things sometimes. But do you ever feel like you can't keep track of simple things like acquaintances' names, your car keys, and the two things you needed to pick up on the way home? As America's population ages, more and more people are struggling with the fact that their memory is not what it used to be. Maybe you've tried exercising your mind, or maybe you've just started keeping better "to do" lists. But the only way to improve your ability to remember is to feed your brain the nutrients it needs to function at its peak performance.

Over the past few year, scientists have discovered dozens of new supplements that enhance and sharpen the memory, intelligence, and mental performance. In Mind Boosters, one of the world's most respected nutritional experts examines the very latest research on these breakthrough nutrients, amino acids, herbs, and hormones.

Along with scientific and practical evaluations of their benefits and risks, Dr. Ray Sahelian explains how to combine brain-boosting supplements to help patients with Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, depression, as well as general memory problems. People of all ages can benefit from the sensible, step-by-step programs tailored to the differing needs of the young, the middle-aged, and the elderly.
