Perlmutter, Perlmutter: Brainwash 1 pc.
This extremely effective healing program, recognized by doctors as well, includes a ten-day brain-boosting and forty nourishing, delicious, and detoxifying meal recipes to help resist the brain-damaging and health-destructive effects of modern civilization. The premise of Brain Detox is simple: our brains are heavily manipulated, triggering behaviors that make us even more lonely, anxious, depressed, untrusting, prone to illness, and overweight than ever before.
We live under influence. In the 21st century, many have a financial interest in gaining and maintaining our attention, for example through smartphones. And we give in to them, just like we give in to the temptation of unhealthy but tasty foods, convenience, and one-click shopping. Why is it like this? No, it's not because we are lazy. It's because they exploit the structure of our brain, which is programmed for survival. David and Austin Perlmutter - father and son - thoroughly demonstrate how businesses exploit the functions of our brain and provide us with tools to prevent that. The book is an excellent guide to building a more conscious life in which we are in control, not controlled.
