Approximately one in ten adults over the age of 65 has greater memory or thinking problems than expected for their age. This is called mild cognitive impairment, or MCI. The previous edition was the first book exclusively geared towards people with MCI, their families, and the healthcare professionals who help them. Written by three clinicians and scientists who have years of experience working with people with MCI, this new edition provides up-to-date and reliable information based on the science of MCI. In short, digestible, MCI-friendly chapters, the authors explain how MCI is diagnosed and treated, and they provide information on how to improve cognitive health through healthy eating, exercise, and social and cognitive engagement. The book also provides practical and effective memory strategies, using patient stories to illustrate the real-life issues facing people living with MCI. The book includes "Questions to Ask Your Doctor," recommended readings, links to relevant Web pages, and worksheets to guide readers through healthy lifestyle change.
This second edition contains 52 accessible chapters with a new chapter on sex differences to summarize the growing knowledge of its importance in health and treatment of MCI. As advances in research continue to evolve, this book will continue to be essential reading for those impacted by MCI.
The book presents a comprehensive and compassionate path for making the best of a complicated diagnosis. Patients and loved ones alike can glean information from this book to make the best of their situation. This book will help bridge the information gap between patients and practitioners, enabling those with MCI to feel comfortable asking questions and engaging with tools at their disposal. This book will help patients feel like they aren't alone on this journey.
