The Nourished Brain is a great asset to bolster your personal health & wellness! The author takes a deep dive into nutrition and the important role it plays in maintaining a healthy brain and body. The book provides good depth on Alzheimer’s and describes the other various types of dementia and serves a foundational understanding of what these diseases are, their impact on patients & families and their huge cost to society, as well as how they are growing at an alarming rate. The book covers the background on this rich topic in a way that should be easily comprehensible by nearly any reader. As a registered dietitian, the author takes a close look at the links between brain health and nutrition and covers a variety of promising research studies that link the benefits of various foods, exercises, activities and lifestyle changes to promote positive brain & body health, and explores ways to potentially thwart and possibly even reverse some of the brain-related maladies associated with Alzheimer’s and other forms of dementia. Finally, the author provides several actionable steps, including meal planning and several delicious recipes that make it easy to incorporate brain-healthy nutrition into ones' diet. I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book and got a lot of valuable information and tips on how to live better and longer from it. I highly recommend reading The Nourished Brain!

3.0 out of 5 stars Book review
Reviewed in the United States on June 5, 2024
The Nourished Brain by Cheryl Mussatto is a guide focused on leveraging nutrition to combat Alzheimer's and other forms of dementia. The book is grounded in Mussatto's personal experience as she watched both her parents succumb to these conditions. Through this lens, she explores the link between diet and brain health, providing readers with scientific insights, practical dietary advice, and recipes designed to support cognitive function.

The book is divided into several sections, starting with an overview of Alzheimer's disease and its prevalence. It then delves into specific nutrients and foods that can either support or hinder brain health. Mussatto introduces the MIND diet—a blend of the Mediterranean and DASH diets—highlighting its potential to delay or prevent cognitive decline. The latter part of the book offers actionable advice, meal plans, and recipes aimed at incorporating brain-healthy foods into everyday life.

The Nourished Brain stands out for its clear, accessible writing and practical approach. Mussatto's expertise as a registered dietitian is evident in her thorough explanations of how specific nutrients impact brain health. She does an excellent job of breaking down complex scientific concepts into understandable terms, making the book approachable even for readers without a background in nutrition or medicine.

The inclusion of personal anecdotes adds an emotional depth to the book, helping readers connect with the material on a more personal level. These stories underscore the real-world impact of Alzheimer's and serve as a poignant reminder of the stakes involved in the fight against this disease.

However, the book does have some limitations. While Mussatto provides a wealth of information and practical advice, the book occasionally feels repetitive, particularly in the sections discussing the benefits of certain foods. Additionally, while the recipes are a valuable inclusion, some readers might find them too simplistic or not diverse enough to maintain long-term interest.

Overall, The Nourished Brain is a valuable resource for those looking to take proactive steps in supporting their brain health through diet. Its blend of scientific insight, practical advice, and personal storytelling makes it both informative and engaging. However, its repetitive nature and the simplicity of some recipes prevent it from being a comprehensive guide.
