We are in the midst of a global mental health crisis:·One in eight adults in the UK receive mental health treatment·The prevalence of Alzheimer's disease is expected to triple by 2050.·Depression is now the number one cause of disability in the world.·The COVID-19 pandemic has quadrupled reports of anxiety and depression.Medications may ease suffering for some, but in Change Your Diet, Change Your Mind , Dr. Georgie Ede argues that the most powerful way to change brain chemistry is with food, because what we eat is where our brain's chemicals come from. For years, we've been told the way to protect our brains is through superfoods and supplements - we top our oatmeal with blueberries, choose plant-based patties over hamburgers, and wash down handfuls of supplements with green smoothies. But the science says: not only do these strategies failpeople, but they can also work against them. The truth about brain food is that meat is not dangerous, vegan diets are not healthier, and antioxidants will not help you.In this provocative, ground-breaking book, Dr. Ede explains why everything we think we know about eating for neurological psychological well-being is wrong. Most of the food we're told is "healthy" is based in studies that take an "outside-in" approach, making associations between healthy people and what they eat. In her book, Dr. Ede takes an inside-out stance, drawing on a range of disciplines from biochemistry, neuroscience, and botany to explain why a ketogenic diet combined with "kinder, gentler plant foods" is the best way tonourish, protect, and energize the brain.
