Highly Recommended!

This little pocket book arrived in my mail box at the most opportune time. For me, it is a godsend. Recently, my husband was diagnosed with dementia and depression while I am plagued with migraine headaches, loss of balance and dizziness; therefore, I devoured this little book from cover to cover and have already started using the remedies and practical advice to help my husband and me improve our memory and mental acuity.Trends in book publishing today are books on the topics of health, natural healing, herbs, and eating healthier foods. Memory and mental acuity -- including age-related memory loss, dementia, and Alzheimer's disease -- affect a growing number of people since the baby-boomer generation is now reaching its senior years. The baby boomers are buying books on health and healing. In this jewel of a pocket-sized book, Reginald B. Cherry, M.D., discusses headaches, loss of balance and dizziness, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder, depression and anxiety, dementia, Alzheimer's disease and age-related memory loss. He also shows us how God provides the natural remedies to help us along the pathway of healing our body, mind, and spirit.Dr. Cherry writes in his introduction, "As statistical data is showing a rise in many of these ailments, these concerns are very valid. We need to get more knowledge in these areas, but we also need to know that God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power, love, and a sound mind. God's plan for all of us includes having a sound mind until the day we go home to be with Him. It is good to know that God has a pathway for each of us to maintain a healthy memory and a sharp mind."This little book is filled with scripture and practical advice concerning symptoms, causes, and cures -- both natural and medically prescribed. Dr. Cherry also discusses staying active and engaged, uses of Ginkgo Biloba, gingeroot, garlic, Ginseng, iron and zinc, antioxidants, brain foods, anti-inflammatories, plant derived estrogens, caffeine, peppermint oil, horseradish, relaxation, Ritalin, omega fatty acids and other nutrients, vitamins and supplements. In each section he also lists what foods to eat and what foods to avoid.I highly recommend this book for anyone who has either experienced memory loss themselves or knows someone who already has significant memory loss. It's also good for those who wish to keep their memory acute and desire to use preventive measures. Dr. Cherry will tell you, "Linda and I are standing with you as you seek God's pathway to healing for memory and mental acuity and as you walk in His pathway to total healing for your life." --- reviewed by Susan J.
