By putting into practice the advice in this book (based on evidence from systematic reviews, along with the authors’ collective experience), people would not only avoid dementia but they would also keep their brains healthier, their minds sharper, and would develop fewer diseases, be less disabled, be more independent and active, be less likely to have to go into a care home, and they would feel better. Don’t worry about your genes. Instead, fight back against the modern environment by reducing the impact of stress, sleeping better, becoming more active, stopping smoking, and rebalancing your diet. We need a new approach to increase our Brainability—understanding and accepting ageing, getting and keeping fitter, reducing the impact of disease, and thinking more positively. Based on this way of looking at living longer we have developed the Triple Whammy Brainability Programme—keep your brain tissue healthy, increase the blood supply to the brain, and increase the ability of your mind to interact with people and ideas.
