Food for Thought

Funny isn’t it? When we take our pets to the veterinarian, the first question we’re always asked is what sort of diet we’ve been keeping him/her on. However, when we go to see our own physicians, rarely, if ever, are we asked what sort of food we’re eating to fuel our body! Where’s the logic in that?

Grain Brain is part of an ever-growing movement in medical literature that focuses on the impact of diet on more than just the tightness of our pants. Our diets impact the functioning of our entire body and, as Grain Brain highlights, our brain. There’s a clear cause-and-effect relationship between the food we take in and the state of our health,  and it’s up to us to make smart choices and increase our consumption of those foods that will keep our bodies operating in optimal condition. The Grain Brain diet is part of the equation and part of what we can do to keep our bodies at that point.
