Story
In Mitochondria and the Future of Medicine, naturopathic doctor Lee Know tells the epic story of mitochondria - the widely misunderstood and often-overlooked powerhouses of our cells. The legendary saga began over two billion years ago, when one bacterium entered another without being digested, which would evolve to create the first mitochondrion. Since then, for life to exist beyond single-celled bacteria, it's the mitochondria that have been responsible for this life-giving energy.

Story
We may believe that we are the masters of our fates, but in reality, we are at the mercy of hundreds of trillions of single-celled organisms that exert control over every aspect of how our minds and bodies function. These are the diverse species of microbes that work together synergistically to communicate with each other and with every system in our bodies. You are your microbiome’s home, and it wants to take care of you, but first you have to protect it. In Gut Check, Dr. Steven Gundry reveals the emerging science proving that Hippocrates was right—all disease begins in the gut.

Good Sugar Bad Sugar tackles the biggest dietary threat to the modern world: sugar. Due to refined sugar in so many foods, we are seeing epidemics of obesity and type II diabetes on a global scale. The warnings are stark - a 50 percent rise in the death toll from type II diabetes in the next 10 years - yet it's not as straightforward as telling people to cut down on the sugar. Sugar consumption is an addiction that begins at birth and it requires a proven method to get you free.

New hope for those suffering from conditions like depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, addictions, PTSD, ADHD, and more. Though incidence of these conditions is skyrocketing, for the past four decades standard treatment hasn’t much changed, and success rates in treating them have barely improved, either. Meanwhile, the stigma of the “mental illness” label - damaging and devastating on its own - can often prevent sufferers from getting the help they need. Brain specialist and best-selling author Dr. Daniel Amen aims to change all that.

Slow but worth your patience

Publisher's Summary
An exciting new science-driven guide to protecting your mind from decline.
Throughout our lives, we are always looking for ways to keep our mind sharp and effortlessly productive. In this book, globetrotting neurosurgeon Dr Sanjay Gupta offers insights from top scientists all over the world, whose cutting-edge research can help you heighten and protect brain function and maintain cognitive health at any age.
Keep Sharp debunks common myths about ageing and cognitive decline, explores whether there's a 'best' diet or exercise regimen for the brain and explains whether it's healthier to play video games that test memory and processing speed or to engage in more social interaction.
Discover what we can learn from 'super-brained' people who are in their 80s and 90s but showing no signs of slowing down - and whether there are truly any benefits to drugs, supplements and vitamins. Dr Gupta also addresses brain disease, particularly Alzheimer's, answers all your questions about signs and symptoms, and shows you both how to ward against it and how to care for a partner in cognitive decline.
The book also provides listeners with a personalized 12-week programme featuring practical strategies to strengthen your brain every day.
Keep Sharp is the only owner's manual you'll need to keep your brain young and healthy at any age!

Fascinating, but too USA-centric
The science and supporting evidence is well laid out and I believe pitched at a level which would be understood by most audiences. I also found the way it was conveyed was interesting. That is laudable.
However, the means and ways to manage the conditions, either through direct interventions or for carers, was entirely focused on the USA (despite many references made to the authors findings of dementia care around the world). Perhaps a more global approach would comprise another entire book!
And lastly, my slightly reduced star-rating for the narration: whilst the author is clearly knowledgeable and passionate about the subject, and a non-medical or non-scientist narrator might stumble over some of the words, narrating his own words was not a good option. When reading/narrating, the author's voice was too monotone and this let the listener's mind slip away if not totally ('sharply') focused on every word. I found myself having to re-wind on many occasions to hear how one thing tied in with the next. Personally, I would have preferred a more professional and engaging narrator. But, I do NOT mean that in a derogatory way, to imply the author does not have a pleasant voice. On the contrary, his voice has a pleasant tone, he's articulate, annunciates clearly, and comes across as friendly. It's just that whilst reading, the tone does not vary.

A great book explaining about Alazemers and Dementia, ways we can all help improve a brain health. Highly recommended listening. Only issue I had was that there was no attached supporting files or worksheets.
