The book approaches this topic by first laying a foundation in neurobiology, explaining nerve function and how signals are transmitted, before moving into age-related changes and interventions. It is structured into four parts, progressing from the fundamentals of nerve function and aging, to specific changes in sensory and motor nerves, then to interventions, and finally to practical guidelines. It presents a blend of clinical research, epidemiological studies, and laboratory experiments to support its arguments, offering evidence-based strategies involving diet, exercise, and targeted therapies.
Ultimately, it provides actionable steps to assess and improve nerve function, emphasizing that proactive management can significantly enhance quality of life as we age.
