Grain Brain

My chiropractor recommended that I read Grain Brain.  I downloaded it last night and am reading it today.  His argument is compelling, as he explains the connection between diabetes and Alzheimers, and overconsumption of carbohydrates and gluten.

We are not eating our grandmother's grains.  Our genetically modified grains contribute to inflammation, the major risk factor in the upsurge of so many diseases.

While we should cut way back on carbohydrates, Dr. Perlmutter says that we should eat more healthy fats: avocados, olives, coconut and olive oils, and lots of nuts.
