“Dr Amen magically shows us that the aging of our brain need not
match the aging of our bodies. The tools he offers to avoid injury
to this most precious real estate in our body are priceless and
will keep us thinking sharply throughout our progressively longer
lives.”
—Mehmet Oz, M.D., Professor and Vice Chair Surgery, New York
Presbyterian/Columbia and host of The Dr Oz Show
“If you want to think smarter, you need to have a healthier
brain. This is another incredibly helpful book from Dr.
Daniel Amen for anyone who wants to increase their brain
capacity. I want to stay sharp, and that's why I read
everything Dr. Amen writes, and you should too!”
—Dr. Rick Warren, author of The Purpose Driven Life
“Use Your Brain to Change Your Age is inspiring and
practical. Its case studies make this book powerfully
impactful, both for adults and young adults in schools. I
can't think of a single reader who won't find himself or herself
represented in the stories of women and men who have used Dr.
Amen's wisdom and research to live healthy lives. This
is a must read for anyone interested
in the human brain and the body that shelters it.”
—Michael Gurian, author of Leadership and the Sexes and Boys and
Girls Learn Differently
“Thorough, practical, and inspiring, this is an essential
guide to reclaiming your brain—and your life!
It's never too late to start... or too early. I recommend it to
anyone with a brain.”
—Hyla Cass MD, author of 8 Weeks to Vibrant Health
“I couldn’t stop reading Dr. Amen’s new book until I was
finished. As a holistic neurosurgeon, I found it to be the
best user’s guide to optimal brain function I have ever read.
His incredible storytelling skill combined with practical
information will change your life.”
—Joseph C. Maroon, M.D., Professor and Vice Chairman, Department of
Neurosurgery, University of Pittsburgh Medical Center, Team
Neurosurgeon, The Pittsburgh Steelers
