Description
The Healthy Brain makes the compelling case that most people's brains are underperforming because they are undernourished. As the most metabolically active organ in the body, the brain has nutritional needs that are 10 times higher than any other organ. The brain is the first organ to falter when it is improperly fed. Author Aileen Burford-Mason offers step-by-step guidance on how to implement dietary changes and select appropriate supplements for optimal brain power at any age. She offers real case histories and summarizes leading-edge scientific research to support her advice.
