'A science-based, actionable blueprint to shift the brain from decline to repair.' ? Dr David Sinclair, New York Times bestselling author of Lifespan

A ground-breaking new book from the bestselling author Dr David Perlmutter that will transform our understanding and treatment of degenerative brain diseases.

In recent years microglia cells housed in the brain have been identified as playing a key role in a host of neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, Long Covid, and MS amongst others. When operating optimally, these cells support healthy brain function. However, when they go rogue, they cause inflammation in the brain, contributing to cell death and devastating neurological conditions.

Current drug treatments mostly mask symptoms rather than cure and the statistics are grim: worldwide, 55 million people suffer from Alzheimer's, 10 million people have been diagnosed with Parkinson's, and serious neurological disorders are on a rapid rise.

And the good news? By following the lifestyle protocol that Dr David Perlmutter presents in the book people can become 'architects of their cognitive destiny'. The Brain Defenders program is accessible to all and will help us start to win the war against the scourge of neurodegenerative diseases.
