Smart Food: Diet and Nutrition for Maximum Brain Power (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780595437702)

The latest information on how foods, vitamins, and minerals can activate your brain/ body potential and affect all aspects of your daily life, from sleep patters to mood swings to productivity on the job

It seems as if every week there is a new study done on the food we eat and how it affects our health. In Smart Food, Dr. Arthur Winter, a neurosurgeon and the director of the New Jersey Neurological Institute, and veteran science writer Ruth Winter get a handle on the critical impact foods have on the way we think, feel, and behave. Armed with the most current information, Smart Food demystifies the brain/ food link and provides you with the tools to balance and strengthen both brain and body.

Smart Food is an easy-to-read sourcebook with up-to-date information including:

• Herbal supplements that may energize and stimulate brain function
• New Information on what makes us crave the foods we crave and how to curb constant cravings
• Nutritional supplements that may maintain brain alertness and activity, even under stress
• Current evidence that suggests there may be a separate "brain" in your belly that functions independently of the brain in your head

And much more .
