Welcome to the Brain Health Revolution podcast with your hosts, Aisha and Dean Cherzai.

In this episode, we sat down with Dr. Matthew Nagra and reviewed the latest evidence on some of the most debated and controversial topics in nutrition. Dr. Nagra is a

naturopathic doctor devoted to bringing the most up-to-date evidence-based nutrition information to

his patients in his clinic in Vancouver and to the public through his amazing social media channels.

He has been a contributing author on multiple textbooks from professional health systems,

including their nutrition textbook.

He is also a public speaker and is well known for his content across multiple social media platforms,

where he often tackles misinformation around diet and dives deep into

the latest nutrition research.

Our conversation revolved around topics such as the data on dietary protein source and

We hope you enjoy the conversation.

five-day Better Brain Nutrition Challenge beginning Saturday, February 4th, that will

focus on the basics of brain healthy eating for you and your family. I'll go live each day of the

challenge from my kitchen to cook alongside with you, hopefully, a brain healthy breakfast, lunch, dinner,

and snacks so that you can see how delicious and simple healthy nutrition

can be. In the meantime, we can have a Q&A. I'll go over some myths and misunderstandings in the field

of nutrition and share some of my favorite tips and tricks for making a delicious meal.

I'm doing this challenge because changing our eating habits can be one of the hardest shifts to make in our lifestyle,

and I want to help.
