'As global health declines, Dr Wood’s voice urgently needs amplifying' – DR RANGAN CHATTERJEE, bestselling author

Take control of your brain health with science-backed strategies to help you prevent cognitive decline and Alzheimer’s disease – whichever stage of life you’re in.

We take care of our hearts and joints as we age – but what about our brains? With people struggling to focus, and dementia and Alzheimer’s on the rise, Dr Wood offers a bold, empowering message: our brains are not destined to decline. In fact, with the right stimulus, they can adapt, strengthen and even improve over time.

In THE STIMULATED MIND, Dr Wood introduces his science-backed '3-S Model' – Stimulation, Sleep and Nutrient Supply – as the foundation for lifelong brain health. Forget expensive supplements or rigid 'biohacks'. Instead, Dr Wood focuses on the everyday factors that truly matter: how we eat, move, sleep, connect with others and handle stress.

Blending cutting-edge neuroscience with his work coaching elite athletes and professionals, Dr Wood offers a deeply practical, optimistic roadmap for cognitive longevity – helping us not just protect our brains from decline, but expand our mental capacity as we age.

Dr Tommy Wood is one of the medical voices I respect the most. He is incredibly knowledgeable on a wide variety of different topics, and has a real skill at translating the latest science in a clear and understandable way that has real world application for the average person who is simply seeking to live a healthier life. In a world where we have a growing explosion of ‘experts’ promoting different and conflicting ideas, Dr Wood’s approach is underpinned by logic, nuance and balance. As global health declines, Dr Wood’s voice urgently needs amplifying.
