Genius Life

The author of the New York Times bestselling Genius Foods presents a lifestyle program designed to reset your brain and body to combat fatigue, anxiety, and depression while optimizing cognitive health for a longer, healthier life. Modern life has drastically changed since our hunter-gatherer days, leading to widespread anxiety, stress, and disease that leave our brains in disrepair. However, science shows that lifestyle interventions can heal both body and brain, allowing us to reclaim our cognitive birthright. This new work expands on the Genius Foods plan, incorporating a comprehensive lifestyle protocol that emphasizes the interconnectedness of brain health with gut, endocrine, cardiac, and nervous systems. Drawing from extensive research in circadian biology, psychology, dementia prevention, and exercise physiology, it offers practical strategies for integrating healthy choices into daily routines, including eating, exercising, sleeping, and detoxing. Among the groundbreaking findings are methods for achieving a "marathon" workout in just 10 minutes, increasing vegetable intake without added consumption, and enhancing melatonin levels for deeper sleep. The book also includes a 21-day plan featuring daily workouts, meal plans, and healthy snack suggestions for achieving Genius Living.
