Description
Book SynopsisAre you struggling with attention problems, mood swings, food obsession, or depression? Whatever the issue, you have far more control than you realize. In Change Your Diet, Change Your Mind, Dr Georgia Ede reveals that the most powerful way to change brain chemistry is with food - because that''s where brain chemicals come from in the first place.
In this provocative, illuminating guide, Dr Ede explains why nearly everything we think we know about brain-healthy diets is wrong. The truth is that meat is not dangerous, vegan diets are not healthier, and antioxidants are not the answer. Change Your Diet, Change Your Mind will empower you to:
- Understand how unscientific research drives fickle news headlines and dietary guidance
- Evaluate yourself for signs of insulin resistance - the silent metabolic disease that robs your brain of energy
- Improve your mental health with a personalized plan to suit your own food preferences and health goals

Georgia Ede is both a great doctor and student. The origin of doctor comes from to teach, and student from the pursuit of knowledge.
You need to be both to challenge and reverse decades of miseducation, but it is worth it.
When curiosity becomes questioning the paradigm, to the benefit of your patients, then you are fulfilling both roles.
Georgia Ede takes us on the journey to the root cause of mental health - poor nutrition. Historically through to practically, the broad and detailed issues of mental health are addressed and articulated beautifully.

This book should be on the list of anyone who is interested in mental health. Dr Ede left me in no doubt about the importance of allowing my brain the possibility of dual fuel and how to achieve that with a ketogenic diet. Reading this book will prepare anyone to have a conversation with their doctor based on the current understanding of nutrition and metabolic science and improve the quality of the consultation as a result. * Dr Ian Lake, GP *
This book will be of benefit to many people including those not confronting mental health issues. Debunking diet myths is a major challenge and Dr Ede does this admirably. * Prof Stephen Cunnane *
