In Natural Power Foods nutritionist Christine Bailey advises how what we eat can dramatically affect how we think and feel. Each chapter of this life enhancing guide is carefully devised to combine comprehensive, up-to-date, accessible information with practical advice. Chapter One, 'The Physiology of Melancholy', looks at the physiological link between nutrition and mental well-being. Chapter Two, 'Mood's Many Guises', looks at specific mind- and mood-related ailments, such as Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), insomnia and Pre-Menstrual Syndrome (PMS), and shows how common disorders can be overcome simply and effectively through improvements in diet. Chapter Three, 'Feel Good Food', presents more than 80 specially commissioned, easy-to-follow recipes, each with a perfectly balanced nutrient profile. The book, which has been fully revised and updated, concludes with a chapter on nutritional supplements, as well as helpful general advice on improving mental fitness and mood through simple exercise and relaxation techniques.
