Download or read book Your Brain on Food written by Gary Wenk and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2010-07-30 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why is eating chocolate so pleasurable? Can the function of just one small group of chemicals really determine whether you are happy or sad? Does marijuana help to improve your memory in old age? Is it really best to drink coffee if you want to wake up and be alert? Why is a drug like PCP potentially lethal? Why does drinking alcohol make you drowsy? Do cigarettes help to relieve anxiety? What should you consume if you are having trouble staying in your chair and focusing enough to get your work done? Why do treatments for the common cold make us drowsy? Can eating less food preserve your brain? What are the possible side effects of pills that claim to make your smarter? Why is it so hard to stop smoking? Why did witches once believe that they could fly? In this book, Gary Wenk demonstrates how, as a result of their effects on certain neurotransmitters concerned with behavior, everything we put into our bodies has very direct consequences for how we think, feel, and act.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you sometimes feel that you're less sharp than you could be? Or do you feel that your mental energy isn't where you want it to be? Did you know that you can change the way that you think and feel by changing what you eat? And most importantly - it's something you need to start doing right now. It's hard to know what's meant to be healthy. If you ever read the news, all too often you'll see headlines praising a food one day, and then condemning in the next. You'll see people selling you miracle cures for conditions that they've invented. You'll realise that powerful industries control the information that's given the most airtime, and that ultimately, you're better off trying to find out the truth for yourself. My name is Aisha Summers, and over my lifetime involvement in the nutrition industry, I've learned that the only way to truly empower yourself is through knowledge. Your health is in your own hands, and true health can be built on knowledge. In my book, Food for your brain, here is just a small part of the things you'll learn about: - The best diet to maintain a healthy brain throughout your whole life. - The worst things for your brain - the foods you really need to avoid. - The surprising science that reveals the links between your diet and your mental health. - How changing your understanding of nutrition will mean that the changes you make to your diet will stick. - It's not just what kind of food that you eat - but the quantities and timing make a difference as well. - The ways to reorientate your life to make sure your brain is at its best, and how food can take a central role. A lot of people believe that the health of your brain is something that you only need to start thinking about when you get old. But the things that you're eating right now, the food that you're putting into your body on a daily basis, is laying the groundwork for how your brain will function in the future. This isn't a problem that can be left to be dealt with later. Keeping your brain in the best possible health should be your top priority. Take action now, by building your knowledge. This book will provide you with the advice and information that you can immediately put into action for yourself and to help the people you love.
