Grain Brain: The Surprising Truth About Wheat, Carbs, and Sugar – Your Brain’s Silent Killers Audio Book Summary:
Know the devastating truth about the effects of wheat, sugar, and carbs on the brain, with a 30-day plan to achieve optimum health. Renowned neurologist David Perlmutter, MD, blows the lid off a topic that’s been buried in medical literature for far too long: carbs are destroying your brain. And not just unhealthy carbs, but even healthy ones like whole grains can cause dementia, ADHD, anxiety, chronic headaches, depression, and much more.
Dr. Perlmutter explains what happens when the brain encounters common ingredients in your daily bread and fruit bowls, why your brain thrives on fat and cholesterol, and how you can spur the growth of new brain cells at any age.
He offers an in-depth look at how we can take control of our “smart genes” through specific dietary choices and lifestyle habits, demonstrating how to remedy our most feared maladies without drugs. With a revolutionary 30-day plan, Grain Brain teaches us how we can reprogram our genetic destiny for the better.

Reactions:
“If you have read other books on this topic, I recommend reading this book as well because it focuses heavily on the neurological impact of gluten and carbs. On the other hand, if you have not read “Wheat Belly” and “What Makes us Fat”, I recommend these in addition to “Grain Brain” as these books go into more detail about the evolution of the grains we eat today and the illogical processes that resulted in much of the dangerous “conventional wisdom” that many health professionals view as holy writ today.” – Amazon Customer
“I’m glad I listened to the book, but I probably should have started with an easier “Grain Brain for Dummies” or something to that nature as I’m a newcomer to this lifestyle. It kept my interest for 9.5 hours so it wasn’t horrible.” – Train Wife
“This is a wonderful and well written book. There is so much information that it almost requires me to go back and review at least portions of the book.My only problem with this book is that it has several references to the PDF file for charts and lists but there is no PDF file with this audio book….?” – J. Oakley
“This is more of a shocking info. This book can scare you aware from how you eat however once put in proper prospective you will make changes within reason.” – Patrick
“I’m going to buy this book as a hardcopy for easier reference to go back to find certain points made. And, this will be a great gift for people I care about. Especially for anyone I may end up putting a diaper on in their old age. Better that they eat right now and save us all from that fate!” – Diana
