Dr. David Perlmutter follows up his bestselling Grain Brain with a practical cookbook designed to transform your diet and protect your neurological health. This collection features more than 150 gluten-free recipes that eliminate wheat, sugar, and carbohydrates while maximizing brain function. Perlmutter argues that dietary choices directly impact cognitive performance and can reduce the risk of Alzheimer's, depression, ADHD, and epilepsy. The cookbook includes meals for every occasion, from Spicy Chicken Burgers with Guacamole to Gruyere-Glazed Pork Chops with Cauliflower "Couscous." Each recipe supports the author's thesis that food choices represent the most critical daily health decisions. The book provides readers with practical tools to build a sustainable, flavorful eating plan that supports long-term brain vitality and treats common issues like headaches, insomnia, and memory problems.
