We've been told that dairy does a body good, but the truth is that cheese can be dangerous. Loaded with calories, fat, and cholesterol, cheese can make you gain weight and leads to a host of health problems like high blood pressure and arthritis. Worse, it contains mild opiates that make it addictive, triggering the same brain receptors as heroin and morphine. In The Cheese Trap, Dr. Neal Barnard presents a comprehensive program to help listeners break free of their cheese addiction.

From tuberculosis to bird flu and HIV to coronavirus, these infectious diseases share a common origin story: Human interaction with animals. Otherwise known as zoonotic diseases for their passage from animals to humans, these pathogens - both pre-existing ones and those newly identified - emerge and re-emerge throughout history, sparking epidemics and pandemics that have resulted in millions of deaths around the world. How did these diseases come about? And what - if anything - can we do to stop them and their fatal march into our countries, our homes, and our bodies?

The benefits of restrictive diets like paleo and keto have been touted for more than a decade, but as renowned gastroenterologist Dr. Will Bulsiewicz, or "Dr. B", illuminates in this groundbreaking audiobook, the explosion of studies on the microbiome makes it abundantly clear that elimination diets are in fact hazardous to our health. What studies clearly now show - and what Dr. B preaches with his patients - is that gut health is the key to boosting our metabolism, balancing our hormones, and taming the inflammation that causes a host of diseases.

Waste of money!!!
Would you try another book from Neal Barnard and/or Jeremy Arthur?
No
What reaction did this book spark in you? Anger, sadness, disappointment?
Very disappointed!
Any additional comments?
As an RN with a strong nutritional background, I was greatly disappointed with this book. The authors motive to convince me to refrain from ALL meat/dairy is poorly substantiated as he never even addressed the benefits of grass fed red meat. And the fact he wants you to limit your intake of vital minerals is laughable. Save your money as you will learn NOTHING regarding optimizing brain health (assuming you read the medical/nutritional news) and this book might even work against your goals in optimizing your brain health..

What did you love best about Power Foods for the Brain?
This book was jam-packed with nutritional information that I loved. Dr. Barnard puts the medical information in layman's turns so it is easy to understand and comprehend. Sometimes nutritionists and doctors use their medical terms and expect you to understand what they're saying. There was so much information that I wanted to remember or highlight and so I bought the book! He gives such compelling information from our diets, to vitamins, minerals, exercise, and sleep. Jeremy Arthur also did a great job in narrating the book.

some good info but strong bias clouds objectivity
Have read over a dozen books on food and health. I learned a few new things in this one so was worth the time. Agreed with much he said but he is overly biasesd against any animal products to the point it erodes credibility. It seems universally accepted vegetables are good for health in every book I have read. Then you have the fats and ethically and properly raised meat is nutrient dense and critical (paleo camp) and then the carbs and vegan is good (vegetarian or vegan camp). This author quotes a lot of research but like most he picks what supports his existing personal bias. When he says vitamins are best from food except B12 which is better from fortified cereals and vitamins I question his objectivity. Nature provides all that we need not a cereal company or lab. I am interested in science along with balanced common sense and when an author starts in on an animal welfare or all animal products are bad kick you lose me. Human history as well as disease patterns do not support this view. Furthermore everyone's genetics and body's are unique so anyone who says all bread is bad or all meat is bad or all saturated fat is bad is likely pushing their agenda. I read every book with scepticism and look for biases or willfull blindness.

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.
