Book ID/图书代码： 03080017B99623
English Summary/英文概要： A diagnosis of Alzheimer s disease in 2016 is startlingly similar to a half-century ago. Despite decades of research and millions of dollars invested in uncovering the causes and developing treatments for this devastating illness, progress has been slow, with each new blockbuster drug proving to be as big a disappointment as the ones that went before it. Today, an Alzheimer s diagnosis is a death sentence.
However, there may be ways to prevent, delay, and possibly even reverse the course of this crippling neurodegenerative disease. In The Alzheimer s Antidote, Certified Nutrition Specialist Amy Berger presents a multi-pronged nutrition and lifestyle intervention to combat Alzheimer s disease at its roots. Berger s research shows that Alzheimer s results from a fuel shortage in the brain: As neurons become unable to harness energy from glucose, they atrophy and die, leading to classic symptoms like memory loss and behavioral changes.
This is a revolutionary approach one that has been discussed in the scientific literature for years but has only recently been given credence in clinical settings, thanks to extremely promising studies wherein Alzheimer s patients have experienced complete reversals of the condition. Medical and scientific journals are full of research showing alternate ways to fuel the starving brain, but no one has been bringing this essential information to the people who need it most until now.
In a culture obsessed with miracle medications, the pharmaceutical route for tackling Alzheimer s has been a massive failure. Pills and potions don t address underlying causes, and regarding Alzheimer s, they typically fail to improve even the symptoms. As a metabolic problem, the only effective way to treat Alzheimer s may be a multifaceted approach that fundamentally reprograms energy generation in the brain. The good news is, the secret is as simple as switching to a low-carb, high-fat diet.
The Alzheimer s Antidote shows us that cognitive decline is not inevitable, but if it does occur, we don t have to sit idly by and wait helplessly while it progresses and worsens. Amy Berger empowers loved ones and caregivers of Alzheimer s sufferers, and offers hope and light against this otherwise unnavigable labyrinth of darkness.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 2016年阿尔茨海默氏症的诊断与半个世纪前惊人的相似。尽管数十年的研究和数以百万计的美元投资于揭露这一灾难性疾病的起因和发展疗法，但进展缓慢，每一种新的畅销药物都被证明与之前的药物一样令人失望。今天，阿尔茨海默氏症的诊断相当于一个死刑。
然而，可能有一些方法可以预防、延缓甚至逆转这种严重的神经退行性疾病。在阿兹海默症的解药中，营养专家艾米•贝格尔提出了一种多管齐下的营养和生活方式干预，以对抗阿尔茨海默氏症的根源。贝格尔的研究表明，阿尔茨海默氏症是由大脑的燃料短缺造成的:由于神经元无法利用葡萄糖的能量，它们会萎缩和死亡，导致典型的症状，如记忆丧失和行为改变。
这是一种革命性的方法，在科学文献中已经讨论了多年，但直到最近才在临床环境中得到证实，这多亏了极有前景的研究，其中阿尔茨海默氏症患者经历了完全的病情逆转。医学和科学杂志上充斥着各种各样的研究方法，这些研究显示出可以替代饥饿的大脑的各种方法，但迄今为止，还没有人把这些重要的信息带给那些最需要它的人。
在一种痴迷于神奇药物的文化中，治疗阿尔茨海默氏症的药物疗法已经是一个巨大的失败。药物和药剂不能解决潜在的病因，而且对于阿尔茨海默氏症，他们甚至不能改善症状。作为一个代谢问题，治疗阿尔兹海默症的唯一有效方法可能是一个多方面的方法，从根本上改变大脑的能量生成。好消息是，秘诀就像转换到低碳水化合物、高脂肪的饮食一样简单。
“阿尔茨海默氏症的解药”告诉我们，认知能力的下降并非不可避免，但如果确实发生了，我们就不能袖手旁观，不能在病情恶化时无助地等待。艾米•伯杰为阿尔茨海默氏症患者的亲人和照顾者提供了帮助，并为这个无法通航的黑暗迷宫提供了希望和光明。（WYL）
Awards/获奖情况：“华丽的……阿尔茨海默氏症解药是我们最受重视的科学研究成果，它创造了一种让人更有力量、更人性化的游戏计划，它能改写我们的健康命运，因为它与大脑有关。这是一个针对每个人的计划，无论是已经被诊断出来的，还是高风险的，或者即使没有这种疾病的家族史……在这些页面中，你都是非常强大的工具，可以让你控制你的基因和认知的命运。”——大卫•佩尔穆特，医学博士，纽约畅销书《谷物大脑》的作者
“越来越多的研究表明，大脑的胰岛素抵抗与阿尔茨海默氏症(AD)密切相关。在阿尔茨海默氏症的解药中，艾米•伯杰对AD的病理有了清晰的认识，并解释了低碳水化合物、高脂肪的生活方式可以通过提供替代的阿尔茨海默氏脑的燃料来源来改善认知功能和提高生活质量。这本书写得特别好，写得很好，是家庭成员的必读，也是广告的看护者。”——法兰西斯卡•斯普茨勒，CDE注册营养师
“艾米•伯杰为阿尔茨海默氏症不断上升的问题带来了一个全新的视角。她提出了一种自然疗法，在我看来，这比标准的药物治疗成功的机会要大得多。阿尔茨海默氏症的解药是一本很棒的书。”——《肥胖密码》的作者，医学博士杰森•冯
