"The End of Alzheimer’s is a phenomenal book. Dr Dale
Bredesen’s research is some of the most exciting work that I have
seen in years and tackles the most important issue of our
time. It helps us understand this complex and devastating
condition but is also the road to prevent it in the first
place. By tackling arguably the most important disease of our
age, Dr Dale Bredesen is actually changing the way we look at all
chronic disease. This is a masterpiece and a must-read book." (Dr
Rangan Chatterjee, MRCP, MRCGP, author of 'The Four Pillar Plan')

completely recontextualizes this devastating condition away from
a mysterious and unsolvable process to one that is both
preventable and, yes, reversible." (David Perlmutter, MD, author,
#1 New York Times best seller, Grain Brain, and Brain Maker)
"The End of Alzheimer’s is a masterful, authoritative, and
ultimately hopeful patient guide that will help you prevent and
reverse Alzheimer’s disease, whether you have the ApoE4 gene or
not. My patients fear Alzheimer’s more than any other diagnosis.
This is the book to transmute fear into action." (Sara Gottfried,
MD, author of the New York Times best seller Younger)
"Dr Dale Bredesen is a world-class neuroscientist/neurologist who
through his innovative and exacting research has discovered a

Alzheimer's disease that will revolutionize the way we think
about the disease." (Jeffrey Bland, PhD, Founder of the Institute
for Functional Medicine)
"Dr Bredesen has provided enormous hope for the heretofore
intractable clinical problem of Alzheimer’s. Bredesen’s early
studies suggest that this approach can halt and in many cases
reverse early Alzheimer’s." (Leroy Hood, MD, PhD, Winner of the
National Medal of Science from President Barack Obama, and
Founder, Institute for Systems Biology)
"Every citizen and medical professional interested in the brain
and its should read this seminal book. It should provide
much of the basis for a true revolution in brain
medicine." (Michael Merzenich, PhD, Winner of the Kavli Prize in
Neuroscience)

ins in my patients, I can assure you that following his

suffering from this preventable and reversible curse." (Steven
dry, MD, Medical Director of The International Heart and Lung
Institute and author of the New York Times best seller The
