About this product: My husband had a stroke due to high blood pressure and stress, the stroke also caused his blood sugar to go way up. I read about the (Super Foods for Seniors) book in a Stroke magazine. We love the book! We have been trying out foods listed for high blood pressure/high blood sugar for 6 months now and both are way down. His stroke was 1yr.8mo. ago and he was taking 12 different pills then, now we have him down to 3 pills per day. None of the 3 pills are for high blood pressure/blood sugar. He eats celery sticks, few walnuts/almonds, few sunflower seeds, cherries when available,steamed broccli, takes cayenne capsules, garlic extract gels and Omega 3 along with multi-vitamins. Terrific book,Julia
About this product: No, you’re not losing your mind. And you’re definitely not alone. There’s Jimmy Carter, forgetting the nuclear launch codes in a suit at the dry cleaners. Rod Stewart fumbling for the name of the intense first love who inspired “Maggie Mae.” G. K. Chesterton writing a long letter to his mother announcing the good news about his engagement—while his mother is in the room with him. Marilyn Monroe blowing the same line through 52 takes during the filming of Some Like It Hot.
Celebrating history’s greatest mental lapses, is a perfect impulse book in the fine gift format of Famous Last Words. Not just outlandishly funny, it’s also a book of great comfort—after all, having a senior moment puts you in the company of Einstein, Lincoln, Beethoven, Newton, Toscanini, and a whole assortment of presidents, poets, philosophers, popes, and Nobel Prize–winners.

Olympic officials gazing absently while bewildered runners continue through the finish line. Bono losing the only copy of his lyrics to a new album. Forget to pick up your copy today!
