Food and the Brain: What Carbs Do to Your Health, Thinking, and Memory

Many of us have heard about the harm of fatty or fried foods, meat or dairy products. But the fact that carbohydrates (sugar, bread, cereals, pasta, rice) destroy our brain may be unexpected news for many.
The author of the book, a well-known neurologist and nutritionist, David Perlmutter, has established a connection between what we eat and the work of our brain over the years of practice. David believes that the most dangerous substance for the brain is gluten. Gluten is found in wheat, rye, barley and all derivatives of these products. This is the same gluten that helps bread to be fluffy and soft. Moreover, gluten can cause addiction and habituation. This is why it is so difficult for us to give up eating flour.
“Over the past 50 years, the food chain has changed significantly. Modern food production has allowed us to grow grains containing forty times more gluten than a few decades ago,” writes David.
The doctor proves that memory problems, stress, insomnia and bad mood can be treated by giving up certain foods. For those who do not suffer from such problems, the right diet will help maintain good health and mental acuity. Brain health is in our hands!
