Forget everything you know about a healthy diet and embrace a naturally ketogenic, simple eating plan that offers extraordinary benefits for your brain, cognitive ability, and mental health.

We are in the midst of a global mental health crisis:

More than one in six American adults now take psychiatric medication.
The prevalence of Alzheimers disease is expected to triple by 2050.
Depression is now the number one cause of disability in the world.
The COVID-19 pandemic has quadrupled reports of anxiety and depression.

Although medications may ease suffering for some, in Change Your Diet, Change Your Mind, Dr. Georgie Ede argues that the most powerful way to change brain chemistry is with food, because what we eat is where our brains chemicals come from. For years, weve been told the way to protect our brains is through superfoods and supplements--we top our oatmeal with blueberries, choose plant-based patties over hamburgers, and wash down handfuls of supplements with green smoothies. But the science says: not only do these strategies fail people, but they can also work against them. The truth about brain food is that meat is not dangerous, vegan diets are not healthier, and antioxidants will not help you.

In this provocative, illuminating book, Dr. Ede explains why everything we think we know about eating for neurological psychological well-being is wrong. Most of what we accept as true is based on studies that take an "outside-in" approach, making associations between healthy people and what they eat. In her book, Dr. Ede takes an inside-out stance, drawing on a range of disciplines like biochemistry, neuroscience, and botany to explain why a ketogenic diet combined with "kinder, gentler plant foods" is the best way to nourish, protect, and energize the brain.

Are you struggling with attention problems, mood swings, food obsession, or depression? Whatever the issue, you have far more control over your thoughts, feelings, and behavior than you realize. Although medications may bring some relief, in Change Your Diet, Change Your Mind, Dr. Georgia Ede reveals that the most powerful way to change brain chemistry is with food, because thats 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. Weve been told the way to protect our brains is with superfoods, supplements, and plant-based diets rich in whole grains and legumes, but the science tells a different story: not only do these strategies often fail, but some can even work against us. The truth about brain food is that meat is not dangerous, vegan diets are not healthier, and antioxidants are not the answer.
