Moreover, a leading medical journal in the field of Age Management asked me to write an article on the latest advances in Alzheimer’s disease prevention.

The complete article is featured as an editorial linked below in which Spiritual Fitness is discussed more deeply.

We are excited about all our published research (55 papers now) and our Brain Longevity Therapy Training Program.

When you become a Brain Longevity Specialist, you not only help yourself feel better and stop memory loss in its tracks, you also help others.

That way you’ll be happy and make other people happy too.

You’ll also discover a new way to increase your income if you want to.

Stay with us. We’re the leader in Alzheimer’s Prevention and Brain Longevity Training.



Yours in Brain Health,



Dharma Singh Khalsa, M.D.

President / Medical Director

P.S. Annie Fenn, M.D. best-selling author of The Brain Healthy Kitchen, and a contributor to our curriculum says, "BLTT is a must for anyone interested in living a long life with a clear mind.”

"It was my honor to contribute to this important book series “Advances in Alzheimer’s Disease” for the Journal of Alzheimer’s Disease. The emphasis is on the development of novel approaches to understanding and treating Alzheimer’s and related diseases. The two volumes provide a comprehensive overview of strategies for tackling Alzheimer’s disease, and will be of interest to all those working in the field." – Dharma Singh Khalsa, MD 

OUTREACH

Alzheimer's Association International Conference 2024

At the end of July, ARPF participated in the Alzheimer’s Association Annual Conference in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The weather was quite nice although, as is typical of the NE at the time, hot and humid.



Our research partner from UCLA, Helen Lavretsky, MD presented a poster about our joint study called The Pink Brain Project™, which showed that women at risk for Alzheimer’s can have their memory improved.

Another of our partners, The FINGER Study, presented data from our ongoing study on quality of life and Spiritual Fitness. Finally, ARPF volunteers staffed our booth and helped share our work of 31 years with attendees from all over the world, physicians and researchers alike. L to R in the picture: Kelly Callahan, Eve Adler, RN, Kirti Khalsa.  Read More.
