  • Glad to hear that people are interested in the book (Ditto Dan, the book title is Grain Brain and the author is Dr. Perlmutter, neurologist and certified nutritionist. In a nutshell, his argument is that a diet that includes gluten, grains, and/or lots of carbs is really not good for our health--esp. our brains). Thank you…

  • I just started the the low carb, high fat (moderate protein) based on reading Grain Brain too. As I read, it just all made sense.
