What did you like best about 100 Simple Things You Can Do to Prevent Alzheimer's? What did you like least?
The book gave good practical advice in easy-to-listen to chunks. It tackled Alzheimers as a problem that could affect all of us, although there are things we can do to prevent it.
How would you have changed the story to make it more enjoyable?
It wasn't actually a story. It was fine just the way it was as a self-help book.
Did Susanna Burney do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?
There were no different characters! This is a non-fiction book with practical advice on dementia prevention.
Was 100 Simple Things You Can Do to Prevent Alzheimer's worth the listening time?
Yes, it was. I would listen to ten different points every day, while walking my dog, so that I could 'digest' them mentally.
Any additional comments?
We all need to take responsibility for our health., Being informed is one sensible way to do so.
Will the real cause please stand up
An interesting version of the round up article. Lots of good information ... probably lots of questionable information. Interesting to listen to. It is a compendium of what scientists think right now about what one could do to sort of bail the brain out by making new brain cells faster than it can leak and sink.
the author repeats herself, and it is not clear from much of her evidence, that it is evidence for anything more than association. An increase in the chance of getting Alzheimer's is associated with eating more red meat. ...
