Change Your Diet, Change Your Mind: A powerful plan to improve mood, overcome anxiety and protect memory for a lifetime of optimal mental health
Are 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
- 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
Drawing on a wide range of scientific disciplines, including biochemistry, neuroscience, and botany, Dr Ede will ignite your curiosity about the fascinating world of food and its role in nourishing, protecting, and energizing your brain.

The first half was fascinating and informative. It looked at nutrition from a neurological perspective and what the brain needs to function. I thoroughly enjoyed this part.
The second half was less helpful because it focused on what you should/should not eat. I understand the author’s view; it just wasn’t practical for me because of food allergies and other medical issues. The recipes included were incredibly bland- if you’re supposed to be helping depression, making food unappealing isn’t helpful. The three stars are because this half of the book was not useful.
