      • Neurotrition - Proper nutrition for a higher IQ

        by Günter Wagner, Dr. Siegfried Lehrl, Dr. Anja Bettina Irmler

        Whether you are intelligent or not depends only in part on your genes. New studies show that everyone can actively increase their intelligence themselves, with the right diet and targeted brain training. How this works is described in this two-volume work. For this purpose, nutritionist Günter Wagner and intelligence researcher Dr. Siegfried Lehrl developed the ABDD model: A stands for variety in nutrition, B for blood sugar stabilization, D for avoiding thirst and the second D for nutritive dopamine optimization in combination with brain jogging and positively motivating movement. Not only in increasing mental performance,Diet also plays an important role in maintaining them. This is what a guest post on Alzheimer's prevention is about. In addition to carbohydrates, phytochemicals from fruit and vegetables play an increasingly important role in optimizing nutrition. The ecotrophologist Dr. Anja Bettina Irmler shows that these promote the formation of new nerve cells and increase the activity of cells in brain regions that are responsible for memory and concentration.While this book presents the scientific basics, the practical book contains 5 IQ points more in 7 days, a compact program with specific exercises for brain training, delicious and tried and tested recipes and motivating exercise units to implement the ABDD model to increase IQ.
