What\u2019s the best way to eat for optimal health\u2014and brain health in particular\u2014and longevity?

That\u2019s a question Max Lugavere is working to answer.

When Max\u2019s mother\u2019s mental health began to decline, he became obsessed with how it could have been prevented. And that culminated in his first book, Genius Foods, which was a New York Times best-seller all about using diet and nutrition to help prevent dementia.

Unfortunately, Max\u2019s mother developed pancreatic cancer, which she died from shortly after. Max\u2019s determination didn\u2019t wane, though, and he\u2019s since gone on to write his newest book, Genius Life, which expands on the premise of his first book to go beyond food and build a healthy lifestyle.

In this episode, Max and I talk about . . .

- Why many people don\u2019t need to eat so many carbs
- Misconceptions about olive oil for cooking
- The effect of late-night eating on hunger hormones
- Blue light blocking and magnesium for better sleep
- And more . . .

So, if you want to live a longer, healthier life while avoiding disease and optimizing your brain, listen to this episode!
