Description

Launching 1 May 2025!

In his new book, Patrick Holford explains why Alzheimer’s is a preventable disease. Less than 1% of cases are caused by genes. We already know how to prevent at least 8 out of 10 cases and cut your risk by at least 80% if not completely for the vast majority of people. Later in life you may lose your hair but you never need to lose your memories. This book explains how.

• Learn  the truth about amyloid and p-tau, the targets for ineffective drugs.
• Discover which genes do cause Alzheimer’s, which predict increased risk and how to eliminate that risk.
• Understand why Alzheimer’s will not be solved by a drug since it is not caused by one thing but a combination of factors, different for each person, that create the ‘perfect storm’ that leads to brain degeneration and cognitive decline.
• Explore how to assess your weakest links that drive future risk
• Unlock exactly how to dementia-proof your diet and lifestyle

“It is clear that Patrick Holford has seen through the dogma around drug development for Alzheimer disease and that the emperor has no clothes. More importantly, Alzheimer prevention is both scientifically plausible and, indeed, actually works in practice.”

Professor Stephen Cunnane, Université de Sherbrooke, Canada
