Get Brain Body Diet: 40 Days To A Lean, Calm, Energized, And Happy Self Penned By Sara Gottfried Issued As Version
is not the first book I read about the connection between our Brain and our Body and the reason why we cannot help one without taking care of the other also.
So there were interesting things but also some other not so easy to prove and also difficult to do stuff.
It didn't convince me completely but maybe it is just me,
Questo non é il primo libro che leggo riguardante la connessione tra il corpo e il cervello e di come non si possa aiutare l'uno senza prendere in considerazione l'altro quindi c'erano cose interessanti, ma anche teorie difficili da verificare e modifiche complesse da mettere in atto, quindi tutto sommato direi che questo libro non mi ha poi convinto del tutto, ma magari sono solo io che sono pigra.
THANKS EDELWEISS FOR THE PREVIEW! Wow, a ton of information, Really expects a ton for the reader to do, Major projects depending on concern, I'll pass I won an Uncorrected Proof of Brain Body Diet:Days to a Lean, Calm, Energized, and Happy Self by Sara Gottfried, M.
D. from Goodreads.
Readers, especially women, who suffer from depression, weight gain, and other chronic conditions may want to try the protocols outlined in Brain Body Diet:Days to a Lean, Calm, En, and Happy Self by Sara Gottfried, MD.
The book describes in wonderful detail how the brain and body are connected: how toxins in the gut, for example, impair the brain.
Symptoms,
causes, and solutions to physical difficulties are explored in the easytofollow narrative, Sidebars, charts, and experiences of reallife patients are employed to enhance the reader's understanding,
Dr. Gottfried goes into great detail as she outlines the protocols she uses with her patients to help them detoxify their "brain body" and improve their health.
Personally, I appreciated the extensive details concerning various toxins, where they are found in the environment, how they enter the body, and the damage they can inflict.
I also appreciated much of the advice on, for example, which foods and other natural sources to consume in order to address specific toxins.
However, I am not a fan of taking supplements which, to me, are a different type of drug and unnatural, and I admit that the author's listing of supplements to take as part of the protocols totalling turned me off of the program.
Many readers may find help for their personal difficulties by reading Brain Body Diet and following the protocols.
There is so much information here, I think ithe book is designed for you to skim and concentrate on the parts that relate to you.
The biological terms won't stick for me, but I will remember that I was convinced enough to accept the brain body premise.
I was horrified reading the section on toxins, It's enough to make you want to live in a bubble!, . . but not a plastic one, A good scare is probably the only thing that will shake me into changing my lifeatyle habits, so I appreciate the harsh wakeup.
My main takeaway is that the brain isof our body mass, but consumesof our oxygen, blood, and nutrients.
What we feed our body directly affects our brain, Our brain is a physical organ that has complete control over our entire body and thought processes.
Good food equals good brain, Good brain equals good body, Good body equals good life,
Of course, in addition to a healthy diet, Dr Gottfried also emphasizes low stress, exercise, and spiritual wellbeing.
I am a spiritual person, but I found the amount of focus she put on neurospirituality particularly Kundalini yoga a little extreme for a medical book.
But what do I know That's why I'm reading this! The multiple New York Times bestselling author and HarvardMIT educated womens health expert delivers a revolutionaryday program to reconnect the brain and body to prevent and reverse the myriad symptoms and diseases afflicting millions of women.

So similar to all the other books out lately, Disappointed. Was expecting more. Some good points but too complicated and detailed, Lots of good information but most of it seems to be repeated in each chapter, Very glad the author did not include all the scientific notes and references in the book what was there was entirely sufficient.
I mainly skimmed through this book, The science info is useful but the rest of the book is the same usual Sara Gottfried info.
Checklists which make it seem like everyone has the problem described in the chapter and similar diet listed in all the previous books.
I like Dr. Saras approach to health and healing, There are many attributes that she lists that I need to implement in my own life, More veggies amp more stress reduction to start! Not dissimilar to other books I've read along this line, it still offered some insights not gleaned from my previous readings.
She has a LOT of recommendations for supplements the amount was a bit overwhelming, to be honest.
A helpful book though. Excellent, thorough nutritional advice about the role of gut dysbiosis on physical and mental health including causes and remedies.
I did get some helpful information from this, Especially because one of the case studies mentioned was a young woman who had a stroke, so I could identify with those issues and feelings.
As someone who has been on depression and antianxiety meds for a long time, I'm anxious to try some of the supplement and nutrition ideas to stabilize my body dynamic.
In a word, complicated. Good information but I found it technical and boring, Also, all the supplements are confusing, I wouldnt know where to begin with all the supplements suggested, Don't be fooled by the title
It is not so much a diet book as it is
A book abou brain and body health
Very good read Didn't learn anything from this book.
It's a good refresher though, I read a lot of health and diet books, I liked the different spin on this one the inclusion of the “brain connection,” including neurotransmitters, genetics, etc made me learn a lot So many good tips on how a healthy mind and body help one another function better.
I'm a nutrition student so I love the topic and believe that we call all improve from it advice.
A few more easy recipes for nutrition benefits would hve been great to see, A very insightful listen/read! I was a bit overwhelmed with all the doctor lingo, but felt the information amp message was helpful to better understand how the female mind and body are connected simply put.
I am working with a functional medicine doctor and this was a fabulous intro to functional medicine.
I took many takeaways that I could implement within my diet, exercise and lifestyle, Audio Good stuff, very useful, despite a bit too much science for my anxious mind, Amazingly specific for women of childbearing years with chronic health issues, Very helpful. Take home message . . Intermittent fasting check, eat lots of veggies check, manage stress check, get sleep check, exercise your body and mind check.
I agree with all of this, Where it gets overwhelming is when you start thinking about all the supplements you could take to be the best, healthiest version of yourself.
This is my plan:
Continue IF because I it, and it fits well with my lifestyle.
Increase veggies while staying away from processed foods and sugar,
Exercise daily doing something I love to do
Sleep
Live a life that I love with people I love, doing things that I love.
. which will continue to include a beautiful glass of ruby red wine!
If all that doesnt work, I can always dig deeper using this book as a resource.
Really great information! I just wish there was a recap or checklist at the back of the book to get you started.
Its hard to retain all the action items with the way the chapters are organized, Do you do them all at once or do they build on each other A bit overwhelming.
I couldnt even finish this, It is reads like a jumbled mess, The author spends way too much time telling us we will learn “how” later in the book and rambles along never actually getting to a point.
