Thank you for a great work, Neal Barnard. You are one of the great heroes of our time.

Excellent advice on nutrition.

Very good advice for how to lead a life of whole food plant based nutrition.

Factual and Easily understood

More food for thought about diet nutrition exercise and how to take care of our most important asset our brains good read recommended for anyone not too long right on target added to the stack

Educational

I learned a lot even though I already eat a plant based diet. Full of good reasons to eat this way for life!

Importance of food choices

very interesting book with lots and lots of information but it will take several readings to get it all. Now I will reread more sections to reread and remember more important information.

Healthful and thought provoking - enjoyable read.

This book gives the reader a very clear explanation on what foods are healthy for the brain and why, which ones are not and why while using amusing anecdotes to prove a point. Enjoyable for those interested in learning how to improve brain health.

great book

loved the book and the reader. just the details I wanted to get. a great read!

SUPERB! Thank you for the “science” behind this book.

Very concise and easy to follow. Longevity runs on both sides of my family. However, I have seen that my brothers and sisters do not enjoy a quality of life that my father and mother enjoyed into their last years. Mental clarity well into their nineties - father died at 95 and mother just shy of 100.
A must read for not only those that are approaching their senior years but for the young. This book offers hope and guidance to make the changes in what we eat so we can grow old gracefully.

Easy to read and educational

I have read several books on plant-based eating. Dr. Barnard’s writings are easy to digest while remaining highly informative and tied to the science. This book provides evidence-based nutrition information for addressing not only brain health, but weight loss and other health concerns as well. The primary focus is, of course, on brain health. I very much enjoyed this Listen.. I still find myself puzzled as to how I am to access the recipes, however.

Everyone needs this information.

Powerful information for protecting your health. All Dr's. should have and share this information with their patients.
