Alzheimer's Treatment Alzheimer's Prevention: A Patient and Family Guide, 2012 Edition

WOW This book is a "must read" for families and health care workers dealing with the disease of Alzheimer's! I heard Dr. Isaacson on the Today Show a few weeks ago and was so impressed with him and his "cutting edge" approach to treating and preventing Alzheimers disease, that I immediately ordered two hardback copies and one for my Kindle (e-reader). I immediately received and read the kindle version. Giving hard copies to friends with family members with Alzheimer's. This book is informative, concise and very easily understood. As a healthcare provider (CRNA) dealing with Alzheimer's patients frequently, this book is the most hopeful and forward thinking book on the market today. Dr. Isaacson and his research on Alzheimer's is known and highly respected throughout the U.S. I highly recommend this book.

The book contained the info I was looking for in a concise,easy to understand manner. He repeated a lot of the info, butthis helped me to remember the key points. We have a family member w/AD, so now we have the option of following hisguidelines and possibly preventing or lessening the effects of AD for other family members. It would certainly be rewardingto find a doctor in our area who would treat his patients like Dr Isaacson, with the one on one approach.

You might skip this book as the contents are mostly or all included in "The Alzheimer's Diet" which is more comprehensive. But for the seriousness of the subject, and the low cost, you might want to buy both books.

Being an Alzheimer's Coordinator, I like to read anything that looks interesting about the subject. This book caught my eye and has helped me to understand more problems connected with Alzheimer's.

An excellent outline for the benefit of patients and caregivers. Thoroughly researched, with materials explained carefully for patients and caregivers alike. Includes very practical suggestions for living with the illness, whether as a patient, care-giver or loved one. The book moves a curious reader beyond denial to an offering of constructive steps to deal with the disease process in its varying stages.

i just wish there was a minus rating! This book is a complete rip off! There are no new recommendations at all It is just padded out to sell as a new study. Isaacson recommends a good quality fish oil, high in DHA and a good quality Curcumin tablet (turmeric root). There now you know - you do not have to waste your money! It is often I get upset about such things but this a blatant attempt to cash in on others medical misfortune.I do wish there were a way of returning books or complaining about them in a such a manner that others are fore-warned.

This was another downloadable book. It arrived almost immediately after I hit submit! I just think it is a little pricey for a downloadable book.

Its help full
