About this ebook
You have the power to impact your health and wellness!
Scientists are beginning to understand that our thinking has a deep and complicated relationship with our eating. Our thoughts before, during, and after eating profoundly impact our food choices, our digestive health, our brain health, and more. Yet most of us give very little thought to our food beyond taste and basic nutritional content.
In this revolutionary book, Dr. Caroline Leaf packs an incredible amount of information that will change your eating and thinking habits for the better. Rather than getting caught up in fads such as raw foods, vegan, gluten-free, or paleo, Leaf reveals that every individual has unique nutritional needs and there's no one perfect solution. Rather, she shows how to change the way you think about food and put yourself on the path toward health.
If you're tired of traditional diet plans that don't work, if you struggle with emotional eating, or if you're simply not satisfied with your level of health, you'll find that this book is the key to discovering how you can begin developing a healthier body, brain, and spirit--for life!

The book mostly covers the American and european food trends. The author uses bible verses to vilify packaged food and other wrongs in the western eating habits. Frankly speaking, I did not expect a pHD author to write in such a religious language. The author misses no chance in taking some reference from bible to justify why something is wrong. If you are okay with such a language then go for it. Else it gets really boring to read those verses in between some really good info. Seems to me like modern day interpretation of bible.

Has some very points but I couldn't keep reading. Too many references to Christianity. I wanted a book based on science and fact not constant references to a fictional book
