From the creator of the MIND diet and author of Diet for the MIND who “pioneered research on diet and prevention of dementia” (Dr. Walter Willett), the definitive guide to eating for optimum cognitive health, weight loss, and longevity.

Named one of the best diets by scientists, doctors, and organizations like the Alzheimer’s Association, AARP, and US News & World Report, the MIND diet, which combines elements of the Mediterranean and DASH diets, offers hope for an easy, non-invasive, and effective way to lose weight, prevent cognitive decline, reduce the risk of developing Alzheimer's disease, and promote vibrant brain health well into advanced age.

The Official MIND Diet is a practical, day-by-day guide to improving your brain health for life by adjusting what you eat. You’ll learn:
