Hello friends, welcome to another episode of the Genius Life.

I'm your host Max Lugavira, filmmaker, health and science journalist in the author of

The New York Times Best Selling Book Genius Foods.

In this episode of the show, I'm super excited to introduce you to Dr. Martha Claire Morris.

Dr. Morris is the director of the Rush Institute for Healthy Aging in the Mind Center for Brain

Health at Rush University in Chicago.

She's a leading epidemiologist and the principal investigator of multiple studies that explore

dietary risk factors for the development of Alzheimer's disease, cognitive decline,

and other chronic conditions of older people.

She's the originator of the often cited mind diet that has been shown to slash Alzheimer's

risk by up to 53%.

I've cited many of her research studies in my book Genius Foods and consider her to be

one of the most valuable researchers in the field of dementia prevention.

She's also the co-author of the book, Die for the Mind, which you guys should definitely

go and check out after this episode.

Over the next 45 minutes, you're going to learn about the vitamins that directly protect

neurons and are associated with slower cognitive decline and lower risk for developing Alzheimer's

disease.

You're going to discover the specific foods endorsed by the mind diet, along with Dr.

Morris' methodology for including them in said diet.

You're going to find a trick to incorporate healthy but calorie dense nuts into your diet

so that you aren't tempted to over-consume them, and so much more.
