Prevention really is how we're going to be able to move the needle on these conditions, because you know, as we mentioned, the drugs are minimally effective.
Ever wondered how your diet impacts your brain? In this episode of 'The One You Feed', host Eric Zimmer chats with Max Lugavere, a health and science journalist, about his book *Genius Foods: Become Smarter, Happier, and More Productive While Protecting Your Brain for Life*.

Max emphasizes the power of prevention over medication when it comes to chronic diseases. He explains how our food choices can protect our brains from conditions that modern society often struggles with. The Mediterranean diet, rich in whole foods, animal protein, and extra virgin olive oil, gets a special mention for its brain-boosting benefits. But it's not just about what to eat; Max also dives into the dangers of processed foods and their negative effects on the brain.
He discusses the crucial role of fiber from fresh fruits and vegetables and the fascinating link between gut health and brain health. Stress management and maintaining stable blood sugar levels are also key points in the conversation. Max believes that taking care of these aspects can significantly improve our overall well-being. This episode is packed with practical tips and valuable information.
Whether you're looking to enhance your cognitive function or simply want to understand the connection between diet and brain health better, this conversation with Max Lugavere is a must-listen.
