read this book about a month ago and got me into dieting. good book concerning brainhealth. Still didnt always like the 'ancester/caveman' side arguement. Too much generalist assumptions about that. Also after reading other recent articles i feel like the carbonhydrates chapter feels somewhat unbalanced only pounding on the cons of too much carb-intake, without giving more detail about healthy carb-intake in general.
