Where did I leave my glasses?: the what, when, and why of normal memory loss
Aging (social issues)
Human-narrated audio
Summary
Perhaps the greatest source of anxiety for America's aging boomers is what's happening to their memory. Lear provides reassurance (a certain amount of forgetfulness in the middle-aged and young elderly is normal) along with the holy quartet of memory aids:… eat healthily, avoid stress, get lots of sleep, and exercise both body and mind regularly. For those who fear early-onset Alzheimer's, Lear provides a chart differentiating normal memory loss from dementia, and describes new research on drugs that improve memory and cognition. 2008.
