Not a pleasant picture. But now there's hope — and good news — regarding memory and aging!

It's all detailed in an important new research report from Johns Hopkins — rated #1 of America's Best Hospitals for 17 consecutive years by U.S. News & World Report.

Have you ever experienced one of those discomforting "senior moments"?

You KNOW what I mean—

  • You are driving in a familiar town or neighborhood — and suddenly, you have no idea where you are, or how to get where you're going.

As the graph below shows, it's inevitable—

Johns Hopkins Memory White Paper: How Memory Declines with Age Line Graph

When we reach our 40's and beyond, our memory, mental acuity, and cognitive powers gradually diminish, to the point where it can affect our work, our relationships, and even our safety and health.

For each passing decade — into our 50s — 60s — 70s — our ability to recall dates, names, facts, and figures fades — slowly at first, then more rapidly.

And that's assuming we're lucky enough to be in good health.

If we take medications for various conditions, even something as simple as allergies, we may actually be impairing our cognitive function! If you or a loved one are one of the now 5.1 million Americans who has Alzheimer's, your loss of memory and mental function can grow much more serious — rendering you incapable of caring for yourself.

Not a pleasant picture. But there's hope — and good news — regarding memory and aging.

It's all detailed in MEMORY 2008, available right now as an instant PDF digital download:

Johns Hopkins Memory White Paper

The greatest brain and memory discoveries of the 21st century

"To live is to remember and to remember is to live," wrote Samuel Butler. If remembering is equated with living, no wonder memory is such a fundamental health concern for us all, especially as we advance in years.

Whether you're worried about Alzheimer's disease or just losing your car keys more often, the vital research breakthroughs reported in The Johns Hopkins White Paper 2008: Memory could make an incredible difference in your life:

    ⇒ No one wants to send a loved one with impaired mental ability to a nursing home. But when the patient's increasing dependence makes at-home care impossible, here are some of your options, plus 12 of the most important factors you should consider when selecting a long-term care facility. (pages 58-63)

    ⇒ Does gingko biloba help improve mental function and memory? Or has it been totally discredited by scientific studies? See page 23 for the surprising answer.

    ⇒ The Atkins Diet told us that a low carb, high fat diet is the best way to lose weight. But a recent study in the Archives of Neurology found that people who consume a lot of saturated fat and trans fatty acids were TWICE as likely to develop Alzheimer's after 4 years as people who avoided certain fats in their diet. Read all about this discovery on pages 16 and 17.

    ⇒ The best coping strategies for dealing with the stress of caring for a loved one with Alzheimer's or dementia. (pages 60-61)

    ⇒ Can the Mediterranean diet REALLY reduce your risk of Alzheimer's Disease by 40% to 60%? The latest findings. (page 16)

    ⇒ In men and women over 60, neurons often collapse, and become twisted and tangled -- interfering with thinking and memory. Learn about the "miracle enzyme" that strengthens proteins in the brain to keep neurons strong and healthy. Read more on page 36.

    ⇒ The latest news on the Alzheimer's vaccine. (pages 52 to 53)

    ⇒ A promising new drug, now being tested, which enables 50% of Alzheimer's patients to halt their mental decline by reducing accumulation of damaging protein in the brain. Learn more about this remarkable new medication on page 52.

    ⇒ The role of the protein tau in Alzheimer's disease.

    ⇒ The different kinds of dementia: not every loss of memory is Alzheimer's. Reassuring news you can use.

    ⇒ Do the statin drugs many of us take to lower cholesterol also protect against Alzheimer's? The latest findings (page 53)

    ⇒ Worried that you're more forgetful lately? It might mean nothing. Or it could be the first sign of trouble. Discover the simple self-diagnostic test you can take at home in as little as 7 minutes to gauge your memory loss and what steps you should take. (page 26)

And these are just a few of the highlights, with so much more to discover in your copy of The Johns Hopkins White Paper 2008: Memory. ORDER NOW.

Keep your mind sharp and clear well into your 80s and beyond.

Whether it's you — your spouse — your mother — your father — an aunt or uncle — grandparent — or a best friend —

— EVERYONE in the world faces the possibility of diminishing memory, loss of brain function, and slowed mental capacity with age.

In fact, according to the American Academy of Neurology, one out of ten men and women over age 65 — and HALF of those 85 years and older — may suffer from Alzheimer's disease.

But thanks to the latest research, not everyone must succumb to memory loss, dementia, and other age-related losses of brain function.

Every day, Hopkins' researchers are proving that diminished memory and mental capacity is NOT inevitable — and can be slowed, halted, or even REVERSED through drugs, nutrition, genetic testing, and more.

The Johns Hopkins White Paper 2008: Memory brings you the best and most powerful of the year's memory and mind breakthroughs from America's #1 Best Hospital, as well as from leading medical research facilities around the world.

And now, we invite you to review it as an instant PDF digital download risk-FREE. That's right, we're so sure that this White Paper will be the most valuable — and important — health care information you read this year, that we back it up with a full money-back guarantee.
