  • Brain Food Brain Food Brain Fo
    BRAIN FOOD B RAIN FOOD BRAIN FOOD BRAIN FOOD B R A IN FOOD BRAIN FOOD BRAIN FOOD WHEN A CULINARY DREAM TEAM announced they were raising money on Kickstarter to self- publish a biographical cookbook called Unforgettable: Bold Flavors from Paula Wolfert’s Renegade Life, food world illuminati rushed to back the project, rallying around Paula as word spread of her dementia. In Part 1 of the following story, cookbook author Peggy Knickerbocker shares tales of the making of Unforgettable and Paula’s influence on the country’s culinary awakening. In Part 2, we distill the emerging science from the next frontier in food—the gut–brain connection—and share a plan for what to eat for better cognition, focus, and mental health. We conclude with a tool kit of resources for anyone who wants to know more about the aging brain. Why now? Paula’s story inspired us to take a deeper look at Alzheimer’s prevention and advocacy through the lens of food. Too much about the country’s sixth-most fatal disease remains a mystery. A healthier diet is not a cure-all, but com- bined with sleep and exercise, it’s a great place to start.
