About this listen
Dr. Lisa Mosconi, whose research spans an extraordinary range of specialties including brain science, the microbiome, and nutritional genomics, notes that the dietary needs of the brain are substantially different from those of the other organs, yet few of us have any idea what they might be. Her innovative approach to cognitive health incorporates concepts that most doctors have yet to learn. Busting through advice based on pseudoscience, Dr. Mosconi provides recommendations for a complete food plan, while calling out noteworthy surprises, including why that paleo diet you are following may not be ideal, why avoiding gluten may be a terrible mistake, and how simply getting enough water can dramatically improve alertness.
Including comprehensive lists of what to eat and what to avoid, a detailed quiz that will tell you where you are on the brain health spectrum, and 24 mouth-watering brain-boosting recipes that grow out of Dr. Mosconi's own childhood in Italy, Brain Food gives us the ultimate plan for a healthy brain. Brain Food will appeal to anyone looking to improve memory, prevent cognitive decline, eliminate brain fog, lift depression, or just sharpen their edge.

No brain fog no more
Amazing book. Answered all my doubts about crazy diets going around these days. No sugar cravings since started eating “normally” mainly lots of fruits.

Lots of good info
There lots of useful and interesting material in this book. I found it particularly useful for somebody who already eats very well, but was looking to nuance my diet to be the best it could be. Having said that there were certain things that the author said that from my understanding are not well based in science. However, there was lots of stuff that was still very useful. The narrator was a bit monotonous and not as interesting as they could be with the read.
