In his 30-year career, Dr. Amen has performed more than 70,000 brain SPECT imaging scans, measuring the blood flow and activity of the brain. He has also completed numerous clinical studies demonstrating the effectiveness of addressing brain health, including the landmark study of 115 players from the National Football League. Dr. Amen learned repeated head trauma and obesity can lead to serious and life-threatening health problems.

But Dr. Amen also showed, in one of his clinical studies, that a brain-healthy program can slow or even reverse many symptoms of aging, including improving memory, mood, and other cognitive functions.

Viewers of his new special will have the chance to get other bonus offers including "Live Longer with the Brain Doctor's Wife," a CD Rom cookbook by Dr. Amen's wife Tana.
