Really good

My pre-existing understanding of neuroscience from the Sapolsky and Rob Garrett books has been enhanced by neuro-nutrition. This book is quite information heavy. Amino acids, tyrosine, serotonin, dopamine, glutamate, glucose, trans fatty acids, cholesterol, LDL, HDL, polyunsaturated fats. Blablabla lots of terms to know.

A lot of pointless discussion on evolution, ancestral diets, mother nature. The author needs to get to the point on neuroscience and nutrition (neuro-nutrition) and less on irrelevant inspirational filler

very easy to read through

Wow the author is really inspiring. Starting her own lab for Alzheimer’s completing multiple degrees. Knowledgeable in both neurology AND integrative nutrition.
