The urgent case for protecting your brain before old age, as well as proven strategies for how to do it, from the bestselling author of The M Word.
The evidence is clear - almost half of all cases of dementia and cognitive decline are preventable. But sadly none are treatable.

To give us a running start in the fight against cognitive decline, GP and acclaimed broadcaster Dr Ginni Mansberg presents the very latest evidence-based research on how to protect your most valuable asset - your clever, vulnerable, powerful brain. As the health of our brains increasingly takes centre stage, Ginni gives up-to-the-minute advice and strategies you can implement now to protect your brain as you age.
