A physician and chef identifies the top ten brain-smart ingredients
and shows that eating to maintain brain health is easy, accessible,
delicious, and necessary for everyone. The foods we choose to eat
(or not) sit at the core of the Alzheimer's epidemic. In The Brain
Health Kitchen, readers will learn exactly how making the right
choices about the foods we select and cook, and how we eat them,
can keep our brains younger, sharper, more vibrant, and much less
prone to dementia. Scientific studies show that there are ten foods
with powerful neuroprotective properties. None should come as a
surprise - leafy greens, whole grains, berries, fatty fish, beans
and lentils, olive oil, and more have been touted for their
health-giving benefits since researchers put a name to the
Mediterranean diet. But Dr. Annie Fenn takes a much more targeted
approach, beginning with 100 recipes that incorporate brain-healthy
foods into every meal of the day. From Caramelised Apple and Quinoa
Pancakes for breakfast to Mushroom and White Bean Socca for lunch
to dinners like Miso-Glazed Cod with Rice and Gingery Green Beans
and Marinated Steak with Warm Kale Salad and Sweet Potatoes, here
are dishes that are simply delicious, regardless of their
health-boosting effects. Same with the desserts, like Coffee, Date,
and Oat Bars. Readers will also learn other strategies for creating
a brain-friendly dietary pattern, including choosing meats that
fuel instead of harm; understanding the nuances between "good" and
"bad" fats; embracing methods that preserve nutrients, such as
braising and steaming; making sure to drink the right beverages;
and addressing holistic issues like how diverse your food choices
are and how beneficial it is to share meals with family and
friends. Shifting to and sticking with a brain healthy diet is your
first and best line of defense against the heartbreaking diseases
of Alzheimer's and dementia. And it works for everyone - omnivores,
pescatarians, vegetarians and vegans, and the gluten-intolerant.
