Happy Tuesday, My Best Buddies!
I love to listen to books on my iPod at night and recently reviewed Dr. David Perlmutter's book, "Grain Brain." He is a neurologist who believes memory issues and many many other conditions like ADHD and depression can be improved with nutrition - especially gluten and sugar free.
The doctor particularly discusses healthy fats and the way they fuel our brains - not glucose! Another score for the LCHF lifestyle.
The photo is my brain arsenal to keep me sharp and present! I also include avocado and nuts.
