"Whether you are struggling to lose weight, optimize hormones, reverse autoimmunity or heal anxiety and depression [Dr. Gottfried} has the answer." —Dale Bredesen, New York Times–bestselling author of  The End of Alzheimer's Do you struggle to lose weight or to fall and stay asleep at night? Do you feel lethargic and a depressed? Do you endure irregularity or other digestive problems? Do you want to feel better and maximize your health and longevity? Dr. Sara Gottfried, a Harvard-MIT trained women's health expert, has the answer. Your health problems, she reveals, are caused by a malfunction in the connection between your brain and your body. While our thoughts can affect our physical health, what we do to our body also has a lasting impact on our brains.

In  Brain Body Diet, Dr. Gottfried shows how brain body health is the key to reversing a myriad of chronic symptoms—empowering you to live up to our potential and achieve the lasting health you desire. Designed for the female brain—which is different from the male brain—this breakthrough protocol will help you lose weight, get off harmful prescription medications, boost energy and mental functioning, and alleviate depression and anxiety in less than six weeks.
