Description: The surprisingly dramatic role of nutrition in our mental health, and how diet and micronutrients can be used to help treat and prevent anxiety, depression, ADHD and other mental health disorders.' The Better Brain is the first book that will tell you both how and why nutrients can be used to treat mental-health issues. We are scientists who've uncovered that many symptoms of anxiety, depression, ADHD, PTSD and more are caused by suboptimal nutrition. We've been doing research and clinical studies on this crucial topic for decades, yet we have never published our findings for a general audience before. Following our lectures and Julia's TE Dx Talk, we get asked questions all the time about our findings and why nutrients are so important for our brains. People want to know more. They're desperate for answers. This is our solution.' Leading scientists Bonnie Kaplan and Julia Rucklidge have dedicated their careers to researching the role that diet and nutrition play in our mental health. Together they have published several hundred peer-reviewed studies - those from the last two decades reveal the healing power of nutrients and the surprising role they play in brain health. In this paradigm-shifting book, Kaplan and Rucklidge share their groundbreaking research for the first time and explain how to feed your brain to stabilise your mood, stave off depression and make yourself more resilient to daily stress. The Better Brain also reveals the hidden causes of the rising rates of depression, from the nutrients in our soil to our reliance on processed food. It explains why a diet rich in fresh fruits, vegetables, pulses, fish and olive oil is healthiest for your brain, and why some people benefit from supplementary minerals and vitamins added to such a diet. Complete with a nutritional plan and thirty delicious, mood-boosting recipes, this book will be a complete guide to a healthier, happier brain.

Review: I had the privilege of hearing Bonnie Kaplan speak at a medical conference her humility and no nonsense approach to her craft runs through this book. The book is thorough, well researched and supported by extensive peer reviewed evidence. When we have special diets for diabetes, cancer and heart disease it seems obvious that we should also be eating for our mental health. The consequences of not doing so have huge personal and social implications. Doctors, social policy designers and governments should read this book. The cost saving to the exchequer of a properly fed public alone should swing the argument never mind the improved quality of life. A no brainer. This book fills a much needed gap and I am sure it will become a standard text. I just wish I could have a time machine and bring it to past friends. I feel it would make a huge difference.

Review: The book is full of amazing stories of recovery by basically taking multi vitamins, but not just any multi vitamin....nope not that £14.99 multi vitamin, you need their £150 multi vitamin. The whole book is a giant advert for their friends companies. They like to tell you of their success stories but fail to tell you about the failures, convenient that! If you have anything like a sensible regular diet, don't bother with this, it's honestly terrible
