Story
Contemporary life provides us with infinite opportunities, along with endless temptations. We can eat whatever we want, whenever we want. We can buy goods and services for rapid delivery. But living in this 24/7 hyper-reality poses serious risks to our physical and mental states, our connections to others, and even to the world at large. Brain Wash builds from a simple premise: Our brains are being gravely manipulated, resulting in behaviors that leave us more lonely, anxious, depressed, distrustful, illness-prone, and overweight than ever before.

And your key to vibrant health may be quitting these so-called superfoods. After suffering for decades from chronic health problems, nutrition educator Sally K.

Publisher's Summary
The New York Times best-selling author of Grain Brain and Brain Wash offers simple dietary and lifestyle tweaks to help you lose weight, prevent (and reverse) disease, and live a long and healthy life by reducing high uric acid levels - the hidden health risk you didn't know you had.
What do obesity, insulin resistance, diabetes, fatty liver disease, hypertension, cardiovascular disease, stroke, neurological disorders, and premature death have in common? All can be stoked by high uric acid levels.
Our most respected scientific literature is bursting with evidence that elevated uric acid levels lie at the root of many pervasive health conditions, but mainstream medicine for the most part remains unaware of this connection. This is especially alarming because a large number of Americans don’t know they are suffering from increased levels, putting them at risk for developing or exacerbating potentially life-threatening illnesses.
Offering an engaging blend of science and practical advice, Drop Acid exposes the deadly truth about uric acid and teaches invaluable strategies to manage its levels, including:
- Simple dietary edits focused on reducing fructose and foods high in “purines” that can raise uric acid
- Natural hacks that lower levels such as consuming tart cherries, vitamin C, quercetin, and coffee
- Identifying common pharmaceuticals that threaten to increase uric acid
- Lifestyle interventions, like restorative sleep and exercise
- How to easily test your uric acid levels at home - a test routinely performed in your doctor’s office during regular check-ups but typically ignored.
Featuring the groundbreaking “LUV” (Lower Uric Values) diet, 35 delicious recipes, self-assessment quizzes, and a 21-day program for dropping levels, Drop Acid empowers listeners with the information they need to address this hidden danger and live longer, leaner, and healthier lives.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.
What the critics say
"Dr Perlmutter again opens our eyes to another predictor of illness involved in many of the chronic ailments that plague modern humanity and provides us the tools to regain control of our metabolic health." (Mehmet Oz, MD)
"In typically brilliant fashion, one of the most trustworthy voices in medicine today has WOWED again. With Drop Acid, Dr. David Perlmutter has paved the way for a paradigm shift in the way we address the most threatening epidemics of our time. The stakes couldn’t be higher, and Dr. Perlmutter offers scientifically supported practical advice, simple dietary changes, and natural hacks to tackle the metabolic issue underpinning obesity, insulin resistance, diabetes, and more. Grateful readers will learn exactly how to easily overcome unexplained weight gain and chronic conditions that have plagued them for years." (JJ Virgin, author of The Virgin Diet)
“In Drop Acid, Dr. Perlmutter opens yet another door to unlocking your healthiest, most vibrant life with just a few proven, practical, and accessible dietary and habit shifts.” (Melissa Urban, Whole30 cofounder and New York Times best-selling author)

Very informative
The good doctor certainly opened my eyes to the importance of controlling uric acid. Along with working on improving my nitric acid levels this hopefully will help. However, some of his food choices are not consistent with some of the Blue Zones diets. This is my problem to deal this.

Interesting perspective. We’ve heard people talk about low carb, and how grains are bad for us, but this book provides a fresh take on optimizing our health by reducing UA levels.
