After reading it-
In fact, the author has been introducing a theme from beginning to end: for the health of your brain, please abandon grain.
If we compress the views in the book again, I think it is probably the following:
1. According to the author's clinical experience for many years, many people are allergic to gluten without knowing it. Therefore, many people who have suffered from depression, hyperactivity, memory loss and even migraine for many years have been magically cured or relieved by changing to gluten-free diet.
Cholesterol is a good thing. In recent years, we have been misled by mainstream medicine. It is closely related to the wisdom of the brain and the future life.
3. Statins (hypolipidemic drugs) will increase the risk of cognitive decline;
4. The best way to maintain the weight loss effect is to adopt a low-carbohydrate and high-fat diet and consume the same calories;
If, as the author said, there is something wrong with the diet structure of the whole human beings in recent years, it is definitely a subversive book and an opinion, but personally, it is somewhat arbitrary in theory to change the diet structure according to these clinical cases and the mechanisms understood by some authors, and the operability is actually not easy for many people.

brief Introduction of the content
Your brain will get sick, not genetically,
The culprit is the food you eat every day!
Gluten, carbohydrates and sugar,
Like a silent killer,
When you were in a coma,
It has done permanent damage to your brain and body.
Foods containing gluten and high carbohydrates are health killers!
All degenerative diseases, including brain diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, are caused by inflammation, which is caused by gluten-containing grains or high-sugar carbohydrates. For example, the chief culprit of Alzheimer's Harmo's disease is eating too many carbohydrates, which leads to brain lesions!
Both brain and body like fat! Stop eating low-fat food!
In the past 2.6 million years, our genome has adapted to a fat-based diet. Cholesterol is too high, not because we eat too many foods with high cholesterol, but because we eat too many carbohydrates!
Gluten-free, low in carbohydrates and high in fat is the ideal diet!
From today on, stay away from bread, noodles and steamed bread and eat eggs and butter instead.
Whether you are old or young, your body's metabolism will change completely, and new brain cells will start to grow!
In addition to the benefits of protecting the brain,
You can also easily achieve the following goals!
Lose weight easily, not gain weight easily.
More energetic all day.
Sleep better
Improve efficiency and innovation ability.
Better memory, sharper thinking.
Better sex!
