The human brain consists of more than 100 billion nerve cells, which die off as people age. Until recently, it was believed that these cells did not regenerate, but recent scientific findings proved that the brain does have nerve cells that are capable of regenerating--a breakthrough that has changed the entire landscape of brain research and treatment. It is this newly discovered ability of the brain to restore, renew, and regenerate that Dr. Jordan K. Davis focuses on in'' The Brainpower Plan''.
