For the first time in history, too much food is making us sick. It's
all too apparent that the Modern American Diet (MAD) is expanding our
waistlines; what's less obvious is that it's starving and shrinking our
brains. Rates of obesity and depression have recently doubled, and while
these epidemics are closely linked, few experts are connecting the dots
for the average American.Using the latest data from the rapidly
changing fields of neuroscience and nutrition, " The Happiness Diet"
shows that over the past several generations small, seemingly
insignificant changes to our diet have stripped it of nutrients--like
magnesium, vitamin B12, iron, and vitamin D, as well as some very
special fats--that are essential for happy, well-balanced brains. These
shifts also explain the overabundance of mood-destroying foods in the
average American's diet and why they predispose most of us to excessive
weight gain. After a clear explanation of how we've all been led
so far astray, "The Happiness Diet" empowers the reader with simple,
straightforward solutions. Graham and Ramsey show you how to steer clear
of this MAD way of life with foods to swear off, shopping tips,
brain-building recipes, and other practical advice, and then remake your
diet by doubling down on feel-good foods--even the all-American burger.

"Turns out my fast-food diet, with all those processed chemicals and hardly any nutrients, was throwing off my body's feel-good chemistry." -- Dave Zinczenko, editor-in-chief "Men's Health"
"The book points out which foods lead to depression and anxiety, and it suggests antidotes such as grass-fed beef, butter, yogurt and whole milk to better your mood.
