Details Condition: New Format: Paperback ISBN: 9781473695580 Publisher: Yellow Kite Overview Grain Brain is Dr David Perlmutter's international bestseller revealing the surprising links between wheat, carbs, sugar and the health of your brain. This revised Yellow Kite paperback updates his original argument with the latest nutritional science, showing how everyday dietary staples can silently contribute to memory problems, brain fog, anxiety and long-term neurological decline - and what to do instead. About the Book First published in 2013 and since translated into more than 30 languages, Grain Brain challenged conventional wisdom about "healthy whole grains" by arguing that gluten, refined carbohydrates and sugar are quietly damaging the brain, contributing to everything from headaches and anxiety to memory loss and neurodegenerative disease. In this fully revised edition, Dr Perlmutter draws on newer research to reinforce and expand his original findings, explaining why fat - not carbohydrate - is the brain's preferred source of fuel, and how a non-GMO, gluten-free, low-carb way of eating can support sharper thinking and long-term cognitive resilience. The book combines clear scientific explanation with practical, actionable guidance, including dietary strategies, supplement suggestions and recipe ideas, making complex neuroscience accessible to the everyday reader. Rather than a fad diet book, Grain Brain presents itself as an evidence-based case for rethinking what a "healthy" diet actually looks like, with the brain - rather than just the waistline - placed firmly at the centre of the conversation. It has become a touchstone title in the low-carb and functional-nutrition space, frequently cited alongside other bestselling health titles that link modern diet to modern disease. For readers new to the subject, it offers an entry point into the gut-brain and diet-brain connection; for returning readers, this updated edition offers refreshed evidence and guidance.
