About this listen

 We know that what and how we eat is important. We also know that our brain performance impacts our overall health, our mood, our risk of anxiety and depression and our risk of cognitive decline and dementia as we age. So what diet and nutrition fuels the best brain performance? Dr Joanna McMillan cuts through the nonsense, bust the myths and misconceptions and translates the extraordinary emerging science the gut-brain link, that explains just how your food choices impact your health and happiness. Each episode explains the everyday science, but also tells you exactly what you should be eating to improve your brain performance. Dr Joanna McMillan is one of Australia's favourite and most trusted health and wellbeing experts. She is a PhD qualified nutrition scientist and an accredited practising dietitian and has the natural ability to translate complex science into practical actions that will transform theory into achievement.This is an Audible Original Podcast.

This series contains a wealth of valuable information on what to eat and what to avoid. It's the sort of thing that adults should know about and teenagers should be taught in school. Brilliantly presented too

Excellent guide for living

Expert scientific knowledge provided in an easily digestible manner. Yes, at times I got a bit overwhelmed by the details, but then the summary of each chapter helped to highlight the key points and the last chapter iterated the key points again. It was wonderful to listen to dietary information where the difference between and scientific fact and hypothesis was made so clear. I will definitely seek out other writings of Dr McMillan.

The episode was very informative and engaging, as it explained how glucose is the main fuel for the brain and how different foods affect its availability and utilization. I also appreciated the practical tips and recommendations that the host shared. I found this episode to be very helpful and inspiring, as it motivated me to make some changes in my diet to support my brain health. I highly recommend this podcast to anyone who is interested in learning more about how food affects our mind.
