Outstanding Reference for Health Professionals and Educators
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
Doctor J. Robert Hatherill has done an oustanding job with this book! As a health and school psychologist I have already started recommending this book to helping professionals and parents. This author goes beyond writing about the links between good nutrition and health. This is the only book I have read that also demonstrates the critical role of nutrition in the promotion of learning as well as health. I highly recommend this book!

This extremely informative book is a great resource for what you need to know about the health of your brain. It goes into quite a bit of detail without being too scientific for a layperson. The emphasis is on nutrition and the author gives a lot of specific examples of foods and supplements to prevent brain diseases and improve brain function. But it is also comprehensive on the effects of other environmental agents, such as pesticides, chemicals, even sleep deprivation and stress. Since I had a grandfather who suffered from dementia, I found the descriptions of Alzheimer's and dementia particularly interesting. But I think that anyone who has an interest in their health and their brain will want to read this book.
