It starts from the premise that neurodiversity (conditions like Autism, ADHD, Dyslexia and the like) is a normal, essential part of human biodiversity - without it we don't get Picasso, Einstein or Greta Thunberg!

- Cites multiple clinical studies to show how Alzheimer's is critically bound with the sense of smell and how the loss of this sense is often the first symptom of onset - Details how to use essential oils to stimulate memory, prevent cognitive loss, and counter the isolation, wit...hdrawal, and depression of Alzheimer's patients - Reveals the striking results seen in several French hospitals and senior living homes where aromatherapy has been used as a therapy for Alzheimer's While there is still no known cure for Alzheimer's, new research and trials from France reveal that it is possible to slow down its progression, ameliorate some of its direct and secondary effects, and improve the quality of life for those suffering from this degenerative condition--all through the sense of smell. Citing years of clinical evidence, Jean-Pierre Willem, M.D., shows how Alzheimer's is critically bound with the sense of smell. He explains how the olfactory system is tightly connected to the limbic area of the brain, which holds the keys to memory and emotion and is the area of the brain most severely afflicted by Alzheimer's. He reveals how one of the very first signs of Alzheimer's, long before any noticeable memory loss or behavior change, is the loss of the sense of smell. Sharing the striking results seen in French hospitals and senior living homes where aromatherapy has been used as a therapy for Alzheimer's for more than 10 years, Dr. Willem details how to use essential oils to stimulate memory, prevent cognitive loss, and counter the isolation, withdrawal, and depression these patients are likely to feel. He explains how essential oils make a direct connection with the cerebral structures involved in emotion and memory and make it possible for the patient to bring deeply buried memories back to the thinking surface.
