Book Description
Do you sometimes feel that you're less sharp than you could be? Or do you feel that your mental energy isn't where you want it to be? Did you know that you can change the way that you think and feel by changing what you eat? And most importantly - it's something you need to start doing right now. It's hard to know what's meant to be healthy. If you ever read the news, all too often you'll see headlines praising a food one day, and then condemning in the next. You'll see people selling you miracle cures for conditions that they've invented. You'll realise that powerful industries control the information that's given the most airtime, and that ultimately, you're better off trying to find out the truth for yourself. My name is Aisha Summers, and over my lifetime involvement in the nutrition industry, I've learned that the only way to truly empower yourself is through knowledge. Your health is in your own hands, and true health can be built on knowledge. In my book, Food for your brain, here is just a small part of the things you'll learn about: - The best diet to maintain a healthy brain throughout your whole life. - The worst things for your brain - the foods you really need to avoid. - The surprising science that reveals the links between your diet and your mental health. - How changing your understanding of nutrition will mean that the changes you make to your diet will stick. - It's not just what kind of food that you eat - but the quantities and timing make a difference as well. - The ways to reorientate your life to make sure your brain is at its best, and how food can take a central role. A lot of people believe that the health of your brain is something that you only need to start thinking about when you get old. But the things that you're eating right now, the food that you're putting into your body on a daily basis, is laying the groundwork for how your brain will function in the future. This isn't a problem that can be left to be dealt with later. Keeping your brain in the best possible health should be your top priority. Take action now, by building your knowledge. This book will provide you with the advice and information that you can immediately put into action for yourself and to help the people you love.

Book Description
Exploring the connection between nutrition and mental wellness so therapists can provide more effective, integrated treatment. Diet is an essential component of a client’s clinical profile. Few therapists, however, have any nutritional training, and many don’t know where to begin. In Nutrition Essentials for Mental Health, Leslie Korn provides clinicians with a practical guide to the complex relationship between what we eat and the way we think, feel, and interact with the world. Where there is mental illness there is frequently a history of digestive and nutritional problems. Digestive problems in turn exacerbate mental distress, all of which can be improved by nutritional changes. It’s not unusual for a deficit or excess of certain nutrients to disguise itself as a mood disorder. Indeed, nutritional deficiencies factor into most mental illness—from anxiety and depression to schizophrenia and PTSD—and dietary changes can work alongside or even replace medications to alleviate symptoms and support mental wellness. Nutrition Essentials for Mental Health offers the mental health clinician the principles and practices necessary to provide clients with nutritional counseling to improve mood and mental health. Integrating clinical evidence with the author’s extensive clinical experience, it takes clinicians step-by-step through the essentials for integrating nutritional therapies into mental health treatment. Throughout, brief clinical vignettes illustrate commonly encountered obstacles and how to overcome them. Readers will learn: • Why nutrition matters in mental health • The role of various nutrients in nourishing both the brain and the gut, the “second brain” • Typical nutritional culprits that underlie or exacerbate specific mental disorders • Assessment techniques for evaluating a client’s unique nutritional needs, and counseling methods for the challenging but rewarding process of nutritional change. • Leading-edge protocols for the use of various macro- and micronutrients, vitamins, and supplements to improve mental health • Considerations for food allergies, sensitivities, and other special diets • The effects of foods and nutrients on DSM-5 categories of illness, and alternatives to pharmaceuticals for treatment • Comprehensive, stage-based approaches to coaching clients about dietary plans, nutritional supplements, and other resources • Ideas for practical, affordable, and individualized diets, along with optimal cooking methods and recipes • Nutritional strategies to help with withdrawal from drugs, alcohol and pharmaceuticals And much more. With this resource in hand, clinicians can enhance the efficacy of all their methods and be prepared to support clients’ mental health with more effective, integrated treatment.
