Renowned brain health expert Dr. Daniel G. Amen reveals transformative insights into optimizing brain function, no matter its current state. Our conversation takes you through Dr. Amen's groundbreaking findings, highlighting the often-overlooked consequences of mild traumatic brain injuries and the limitations of traditional psychiatry in neglecting the brain's physical condition. With a deep dive into the distinctions between physical and emotional trauma, Dr. Amen provides a crucial understanding of how these factors affect brain activity, offering a nuanced perspective for addressing mental health challenges effectively. Explore the intricate relationship between lifestyle choices and brain health with us. Drawing from my upcoming book, "The End of Mental Illness," Dr. Amen and I discuss how common dependencies on caffeine, alcohol, and sugar can severely impact mental well-being. We delve into the addictive nature of sugar and its potential role in depression and dementia, all while emphasizing the need for fostering healthier relationships with food and substances. Learn about the fascinating insights gained from brain scans and discover a free online test that can help you better understand your brain type, ultimately enabling a more personalized approach to mental health. We also address the potential health risks of electromagnetic frequencies from devices like cell phones and emerging technologies like 5G. Dr. Amen discusses the alarming rise in deaths related to drugs, alcohol, and suicide, suggesting a paradigm shift in viewing these issues as brain illnesses. The conversation explores the impact of physical health on brain function, and we touch on the transformative power of music in enhancing creativity, mood stabilization, and relaxation. Listen in as we discuss the importance of aligning lifestyle choices with natural rhythms and explore alternative mental health treatments like diet, exercise, and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). ------------------ Dr. Daniel G. Amen believes that brain health is central to all health and success. When your brain works right, he says, you work right; and when your brain is troubled you are much more likely to have trouble in your life. His work is dedicated to helping people have better brains and better lives. The Washington Post called Dr. Amen the most popular psychiatrist in America and Sharecare named him the web's #1 most influential expert and advocate on mental health. Dr. Amen is a physician, double board certified psychiatrist, television producer and ten-time New York Times bestselling author. He is the Founder and Medical Director of Amen Clinics across the US. Amen Clinics have the world's largest database of functional brain scans relating to behavior, totaling more than 125,000 scans on patients from 111 countries. Dr. Amen is a Distinguished Fellow of the American Psychiatric Association, the highest award given to members, and is the lead researcher on the world's largest brain imaging and rehabilitation study on professional football players. His research has not only demonstrated high levels of brain damage in players, he also showed the possibility of significant recovery for many with the principles that underlie his work. Together with Pastor Rick Warren and Dr. Mark Hyman, Dr. Amen is also one of the chief architects on Saddleback Church's “Daniel Plan,” a program to get the world healthy through religious organizations. Dr. Amen has written, produced and hosted 11 popular shows about the brain for public television, which have been aired more than 100,000 times across North America. Dr. Amen is the author or co-author of 70 professional articles, seven book chapters, and over 30 books, including the #1 New York Times bestseller The Daniel Plan and Change Your Brain, Change Your Life, Magnificent Mind At Any Age, Change Your Brain, Change Your Body, Use Your Brain to Change Your Age, Unleash the Power of the Female Brain and Healing ADD. --------- EPISODE CHAPTERS --------- (0:00:01) - Mastering the Brain With Dr. Amon (0:05:19) - Balancing Brain Health and Behavior (0:20:17) - Revolution in Brain Health (0:26:56) - Optimizing Brain Function Through Lifestyle --------- EPISODE CHAPTERS WITH SHORT KEY POINTS --------- (0:00:01) - Mastering the Brain With Dr. Amon Dr. Daniel G.

Amen regarding brain health and optimization. We explore Dr. Amen's groundbreaking discoveries, including the ability to improve brain function regardless of its current state, the profound impact of mild traumatic brain injuries that often go unnoticed, and the shortcomings of traditional psychiatry that overlooks the brain's physical state. Dr. Amen distinguishes between physical and emotional trauma, highlighting how each affects brain activity differently. He shares how physical trauma can lead to decreased brain activity, while emotional trauma can cause heightened activity in the limbic system, which is crucial for understanding how to appropriately treat various mental health challenges. Understanding these differences is essential to either calming or repairing the brain effectively. (0:05:19) - Balancing Brain Health and Behavior (15 Minutes) This chapter focuses on the relationship between daily habits and mental health, specifically discussing the impacts of caffeine, alcohol, and sugar on the brain. I share insights from my upcoming book, "The End of Mental Illness," where I discuss how society's dependency on coffee to wake up and alcohol to sleep can contribute to mental health issues. By gradually reducing caffeine and alcohol intake, individuals can improve their energy levels and sleep quality without withdrawal symptoms. The conversation highlights the addictive and inflammatory nature of sugar, its role in depression and dementia, and its negative effects on brain healing and function. The importance of maintaining healthy relationships with food and substances is emphasized, suggesting that food should "love you back." Finally, we touch on the insights gained from brain scans regarding personality and behavior, introducing a free online test to help people understand their brain types. (0:20:17) - Revolution in Brain Health (7 Minutes) This chapter addresses concerns about the pervasive use of cell phones and the potential health risks associated with electromagnetic frequencies (EMFs) and radiation exposure from devices like microwaves and the emerging 5G technology. The discussion touches on the alarming rise in deaths from drugs, alcohol, and suicide, linking them to broader mental health issues and suggesting a shift from viewing these as mental illnesses to brain illnesses. Highlighting Dr. Amen's work, we explore the impact of weight and physical health on brain function, emphasizing the importance of preventing or treating risk factors like low blood flow and diabesity, as outlined in the "Bright Minds" mnemonic. We also discuss the influence of brainwave frequencies and cognition enhancers, sharing insights on brain-enhancing music's potential to improve mental health and function, reflecting on the transformative power of music in promoting creativity, mood stabilization, and relaxation. (0:26:56) - Optimizing Brain Function Through Lifestyle (9 Minutes) This chapter focuses on the impact of different music genres on brain function and the individual variability in optimal brain rhythms, discussing a personal study comparing rock, country, classical, and heavy metal music on memory. I also explore the genetic and developmental factors influencing whether someone is a morning or night person and emphasize the importance of aligning one's lifestyle with their natural rhythms. We address the growing interest in using substances like MDMA, ketamine, and DMT for mental health treatment, while highlighting concerns over their use and advocating for alternatives such as diet, exercise, and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). Finally, I share insights on making small, informed choices to improve brain health, encouraging listeners to consider whether their daily actions are beneficial for their brains.
Co-Host Delora Guignion (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/delora) If you want to drive yourself nuts (and who really does?), you can knock yourself out trying to sort out the difference between masculinity and femininity, as opposed to masculine energy and feminine energy. Fortunately, you don't have to do that. All you need is this podcast episode. My returning guest is none other than the Mindset Mentor Delora Guignion from Ottawa, Canada. We indeed engage in a discussion about this heavy-duty topic, and it's guaranteed to really make you think. I mean, is everything we do--and everything we're about--really tied to our masculine and feminine nature? Can't there just be human nature? Well, maybe...maybe not. Delora and I will have to sort of agree to disagree in some ways, even though we really do agree on all the best-case scenarios for how people get along. But seriously, how are we as men in particular really hamstringing ourselves by not really understanding how femininity works? And why is it so many people--men and women alike--simply refuse to even acknowledge that men and women have different priorities and sensibilities, and that's probably okay? And that's just the warm-up. Are left-brained people in their masculine and right-brained people in their feminine? The ramifications of that question extend to almost every corner of life. All we really know is that when masculinity and femininity understand each other, whether they're left- or right-brained, we all get along better. And that, friends and neighbors, is a no-brainer.

New results suggest the disease progresses differently in women, but we need more basic science to unpack the mechanisms involved.
Daneen West is a Cisco Customer Success Executive, mother of three, and Brain Health Coach. For the past 21 years, Daneen has worked for Cisco Systems, designing, and leading industry award-winning talent development programs After years of being on the verge of burnout, she is professionally more resilient, energized, and mentally sharp than decades earlier because of discovering brain health, where all the power is to up-level your life. Certified through the NeuroLeadership Institute and Amen Clinics, Brain Health has transformed every area of Daneen's life, and she is compelled to provide the opportunity for others to ease anxiety, boost focus and finally work on their sleep struggles. Daneen's Brain-Boosting checklist is a great resource to discover practical tips to heal, protect and grow the brain (See below). Memorable Quotes: “So as parents, if we have that intuition like that, something's wrong, check it out. And if the first doctor may not, if you don't resonate there, you're not being heard. Keep pursuing it.” “It's not a badge of honor to stay up all night. Right. Our culture sometimes will make you feel that way or sleep when you're dead. But there's so much that we've learned now around sleep. That's because it is the only way that our brain detoxes every night.” “As you're walking through this journey, you're going to come across ideas, thoughts, music, books, people and they're going to feel right or they're not. I'm going to encourage you to trust yourself. Just because it works for me doesn't mean it works for you.” “What makes the brain work is what you put in your mind, what you put on your body, what you put in your mouth.” What You'll Learn: Why brain health is important and how to pursue a healthy brain through small lifestyle changes. This Episode Includes: Daneen first started looking into brain health when three different doctors diagnosed her son with three different issues: sensory processing, ADD, and Asperger's. After a long journey of searching, Daneen finally came to the realization that brain health was at the root cause of her son's health situation. Daneen found the Brain Balance Program which revolutionized the way she viewed brain health for herself and her children. She believes her health journey is a forever resource which she now shares with others through her coaching program. Robin reminds the audience that health is layered and that there are many factors that can influence brain health. Daneen shares that the first step to supporting brain health is getting good quality sleep. Getting sleep is how the brain detoxifies itself from neurotoxins incurred throughout the day. Daneen shares a few more steps to supporting brain health in children like eating enough healthy fats and getting energy out early in the morning through jumping ropes or jumping jacks. Sleep is one of Dr. Robin's three non-negotiables for a well life. Daneen encourages parents to model the health behavior the would like to see in their children. Daneen and Dr. Robin both agree that small steps are the key to success when pursuing a healthy brain. Three Takeaways From Today's Episode: Practice getting good quality sleep each night this week. Add enough healthy fats to your diet to support your energy levels and brain health. Do 50 jumping jacks with your kids before they head off to school in the morning to help them release energy and feel encouraged through exercising together.

In this episode, Dr Sarah McKay, a neuroscientist, author, and mom, joins Yvonne. They talk about a wide range of topics, including the biggest misconception about the female brain, what happens to the brain during pregnancy, PMS, and a range of other fascinating subjects. Dr McKay also explains why the idea that the Reticular Activating System (RAS) is the centre of manifestation is not backed up by neuroscience. KEY TAKEAWAYS Four out of five mothers experience “baby brain.” Dr McKay shares what the research tells us about this. Women´s brains change during pregnancy to prepare for motherhood, Dr McKay explains how and shares what the research tells us. Hormones are not the main driver of the female brain. But they do have an impact and affect some women much more than others. In countries where women do not feel they have a voice, rates of PMS are much higher. When it comes to things like PMS, we need to factor in what society has told us to expect and the impact that has on how we think and in turn how our bodies respond. The words we use and the social narrative we accept have a strong impact on how we think, feel and therefore act. The placenta has a biological sex too. Some of a baby´s cells migrate into the mother´s brain. The RAS potentially plays a role in what you pay attention to, and where your focus goes. But it does not mean you can use it to manifest. Your social networks have the biggest impact on your life. BEST MOMENTS ‘We don't find clear variation of mood based on the day of the month in most women. ´ ‘Be very conscious of what you are telling yourself.' ‘The loudest voice in the crowd is the people around us and that's the greatest source of strength and resilience that we should be seeking out.' ‘Our brains do change particularly during our first pregnancy.'

What role do estrogen and the menstrual cycle play in the moods of women? Is ‘baby brain' a real phenomena or does the brain actually sharpen during motherhood? What are the symptoms of menopause and how natural and effective is HRT (Hormone Replacement Therapy)? - Use the time stamps for those interested only in the neuroscience of Menopause (01:07:45) and Motherhood (37:00). - NO VIDEO Episode, audio only. Today we have the important topic of women's hormones to up our awareness about. A big part of the experience we have of our bodies is thanks to hormones, also called neurotransmitters because they help our nervous system communicate with the rest of the body about what's going on inside and outside the body. Having accompanied my partner through the process of having two children, and us both having had many unanswered questions about that; and now heading into my late forties having many female friends and listeners heading towards menopause, and speaking publicly about how they wished there'd been given more information about it as it seems not to be discussed much, even amongst women. So I felt the need to make a show about the science and experience of female hormones, particularly with regard to motherhood and menopause; in the hope that women facing these experiences and men hoping to be informed and supportive to those experiences might get more insight. If you're looking for a show about the comparison or difference between men and women, or Mars or Venus, or the battle of the sexes this is not the show for you: this is simply an informative show about the female brain and particularly about the changes that take place during motherhood and menopause. Unfortunately there is hardly any research into the neuroscience and hormones of trans people, so I apologise in advance for the fact that this show speaks only of those who are born and identify themselves as women. We are extremely fortunate that our guest today is a neuroscientist and author who has specialised in the Female Brain, both studying the full arc of a woman's life in her highly accessible yet detailed book “The Women's Brain Book: The neuroscience of Health, Hormones and Happiness”; and most recently in her new 2023 book “Baby Brain: The surprising science of how pregnancy and motherhood sculpt our brains and change our minds (for the better)”. She is of course Dr. Sarah McKay, an Oxford University phD in Neuroscience, whose super power is to make neuroscience simple, actionable and relevant to your everyday life. So she chose to leave her research career in favour of science communication, hoping to bridge the gap between the lab and everyday life. She's the founder of the Neuroscience Academy; has been the neuroscience correspondent for ABC in Australia and has been quoted in the Guardian, Wall Street Journal, Grazia and the Sydney Morning Herald. What we discuss: 00:00 Intro. 10:55 Menstrual cycle and estrogen neuroscience. 13:45 Brain-ovarian axis (HPO hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis). 18:45 Wrong assumption that estrogen equals negative moods in women. 24:30 PMS misconceptions - proved to affect only %10 of population. 35:00 A bio-psycho-social model - many contributing factors to mood. 37:00 MOTHERHOOD neuroscience. 48:45 Wrong assumptions about ‘baby brain' - no cognitive decline. 55:15 Wrong assumptions about post-partum attachment dynamics. 01:05:15 Post natal depression - Not only due to an estrogen drop. 01:07:45 MENOPAUSE Neuroscience. 01:17:00 Perimenopause - menstrual cycle becomes erratic. 01:27:30 Sex-drive and discomfort after menopause. 01:31:30 HRT - Hormone Replacement Therapy 01:41:45 Nuance and ‘grey areas' in a world of click bait.

Stacy Feiner and Jack Harris, co-authors of The Sixth Level: Capitalize on the Power of Women's Psychology for Sustainable Leadership. They make the case that current leadership models are missing critical elements and offer an addition to Maslow's five-model Hierarchy of Needs. Feiner and Harris suggest that this Sixth Level is women's unique ability to move between the analytical side and the emotional side of the brain which they call the ‘art of toggling'. Mutuality, ingenuity, justice, and intrinsic motivation, they believe, could elevate communities to work collaboratively and justly, and eliminate an outdated model of command and control.

In today's episode I welcome back Dr. Michelle Leary, a functional medicine physician and the director of Functional Medicine at Vida Integrated Health.Many of us in middle age have parents who are struggling with dementia and/or Alzheimer's, and today I'm talking with Dr. Leary about longevity medicine and brain health, for women in particular. In this episode you're going to learn all about what longevity medicine is, and what you can do to improve your quality of life and protect your brain & cognitive health as you age.Dr. Leary talks about the impact of genetics, particularly the APOE gene, on Alzheimer's disease risk and how to test for it. Thankfully, genetics don't necessarily dictate our fate, and Dr. Leary shares how you can promote longevity and minimize your risk of degenerative brain disease by leveraging sleep, nutrition, metabolic health, and exercise. She also discusses the role of chronic stress, insulin resistance and hormones, particularly estrogen, in brain health and cognitive decline.

"I am the Confidence + Assertiveness Specialist™. My work is centered around helping ambitious women heal patterns of feeling “not enough” or “too much” that manifest in their personal and professional lives and rewire subconscious beliefs so they can increase their self-worth and their net worth. I make sense of evolutionary and social psychology to help you, in modern-day, understand how men and women approach life and relationships differently. Like, extremely differently. I teach you what makes us do what we do as women, and why we will be disappointed if we expect men to be like us. I hold a Master's Degree in Clinical Psychology and am a Certified Psychodynamic Psychotherapist as well as a Jungian Life Coach. I felt too limited by the confines of therapy, so I began coaching to share my knowledge with a larger audience. I have extensive expertise to share that helps you gain a better understanding of how to change the way you think and feel to experience less disappointment in your life and how to attract and keep a partner. You will learn how to have a renewed sense of self in order to make the life you dream of and the partner you want a reality. My degrees, letters behind my name, and titles “technically” qualify me to do all that I do, but I have over 15 years of experience ‘doing the work' on myself. When I mentor, I say, “You have to sit on the couch before you can sit in the chair.” I also tell my clients, “As deeply as you know yourself is as deeply as another can know you.”

Menstruation, pregnancy, birth, breastfeeding, motherhood, menopause… let's do this.In today's episode Jessica and Madeleine demystify the neuroendocrine system, and explain the interconnectedness of a woman's hormones and her nervous system throughout the various stages of her life.Weaving neuroscience research together with our own personal experiences, the conversation delves into the female menstrual cycle and its influence on the brain and nervous system. We also discuss the hormonal changes that take place during pregnancy and breastfeeding, as well as the social factors that can make the early months of parenthood so challenging, especially when returning to work.We explore many facets of childbirth including the importance of birth education, the experience of pain, the different states of the nervous system at play, spiritual perspectives, and the importance of the mother-baby dyad.Until recently there's been very little research into the brain changes that occur during menopause. We discuss the emerging research and some methods to better understand, validate and support women's experiences during this important rite of passage. Takeaways•The female brain is dynamic, and there is a need for a shift in perspective on women's health and well-being, recognizing the interconnectedness of the neuroendocrine system•The female menstrual cycle has a significant impact on the female nervous system, with fluctuating hormones influencing brain function and behavior.•Returning to work after maternity leave can be challenging for women, as hormonal changes and fatigue can affect cognitive function and memory.•During pregnancy and birth, the body undergoes profound hormonal changes that support the bonding process between mother and baby. Touch and connection are crucial for babies' healthy development, particularly in the areas of attachment and regulation.•The social factors impacting parenting have changed, with many women lacking the support of extended family and facing the challenges of balancing work and parenting.•Postpartum hormonal changes can both have a significant impact on women's well-being, and it is important to recognize and support women during this time.•Menopause is a significant transition that affects the neuroendocrine system, and it is important to understand and support women during this phase of life.•The biopsychosocial model of health provides a framework for understanding the biological, psychological, and social factors that influence women's health.•The conversation around women's health is evolving, and there is a growing recognition of the importance of addressing the unique needs and challenges faced by women.If you'd like to learn more about cultivating interoceptive accuracy to support yourself through times of change and transition, head to nervoussystemschool.com/female to access your free worksheet.If you enjoy our work, we'd love it if you could take a minute to follow us wherever you get your podcasts, and leave a rating and review.

It can be a scary and confusing place, but with Courtney as your guide, perhaps you'll have a better understanding of the warped female brain
This week, neuroscientist, psychologist, and expert in women's stress and burnout Dr Delia McCabe joined host Clarissa Kristjansson on Thriving Thru Menopause to discuss the complex challenges and stress women face, especially during menopause in the post-COVID world. They discuss the impact of stress, burnout, technology's influence, and information overload in today's society. Delia provides insights into the physiological differences in stress responses between men and women, emphasizing the need for effective stress management, creating new neural pathways, and simplifying life to enhance stress resilience. She explains how the complexity of the world and the information overload can overwhelm the female brain, leading to hormonal imbalances and emotional instability. The discussion also touches on the adverse effects of childhood experiences on stress levels and menopause symptoms. The importance of humour in navigating menopause and practical steps to reduce stress and improve overall well-being. Delia offers a seven-point checklist to help listeners build new neural pathways and manage stress more effectively. Delia provides actionable steps for women to thrive and improve their coping capacity. Takeaways * The world post-COVID is more complex and overwhelming, leading to increased stress and burnout among women. * The female brain is more sensitive to stress and hormonal fluctuations, impacting emotional regulation and well-being. * Choice fatigue and information overload contribute to stress and overwhelm, making it important to simplify life and focus on what can be controlled. * Addressing chronic stress and managing cortisol levels are crucial for preventing burnout and maintaining hormonal balance. * Adverse childhood experiences can make women more susceptible to stress and difficult menopause transitions.Timeline00:02 Welcome to Thriving Through Menopause Podcast01:32 Introducing Dr. Delia McCabe and the Importance of Support01:56 Navigating Stress and Burnout in a Post-COVID World04:00 The Complexities of Information Overload and Technology06:06 Understanding Burnout Beyond Work: A Modern Phenomenon06:35 Menopause in the Modern World: Challenges and Misinformation11:40 The Impact of Stress on Women's Health and Menopause18.20 The Effects of Hormonal Changes on the Female Brain 20.51 Addressing Chronic Stress and Choice Fatigue 25:12 Preventing Burnout and Managing Stress 33:10 The Relationship Between Adverse Childhood Experiences and Menopause 37:21 The Importance of Managing Cortisol Levels 40:14 Simplifying Life and Managing Stress for a Better FutureConnect with DeliaWebsite https://www.lighterbrighteryou.lifeChecklist https://www.lighterbrighteryou.life/7-point-checklist-to-feel-light-and-bright LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-delia-mccabe/ Instagram @lighterbrighteryouFacebook lighterbrighteryouConnect with ClarissaWebsite https://clarissakristjansson.comInstagram https://www.instagram.com/thrivingthrumenopause/ LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/clarissa-kristjansson/ My book Beyond Hormones: 7 Holistic Ways to Thrive Through Menopause get your copy on Amazon.

Inside the warped female brain: sexting edition
"A Comprehensive New Look at What Makes Us Women"
On today's episode of The Momlife Mindset Podcast, I dive into analysis paralysis within the female brain and some of the simple steps we can take to get out of indecisive loops. The truth is - most often we get into feeling paralyzed when we're over consuming and leaving "too much" inside our brain. By taking simple steps to write things down, create lists of how we need to take care of ourselves, setting boundaries with consumption online and with time/energy and highlighting our main objective - we can start to take steps with moving forward. At the end of the day - overwhelm and staying stuck in indecision is a choice. And quite honestly, a disservice to what we truly deserve when it comes to self-care as women. Don't forget that you deserve the same level of love and care you so freely give to others. My challenge for you is to start stepping into "action mode" faster for yourself. The same way you likely do for your family, your kids and the people you love in your life. Beautiful lady - you deserve that grace, nurturing and advocacy too! Don't be afraid to take messy action steps...and have grace for the self-awareness and self-growth process. It's not about doing it perfectly...it's about making progress along the way. Thank you so much for tuning in today! I'd love to hear from you and connect further on our stories.

Today's episode is a really important one. We wanted to dive into all things brain health (specifically female brain health) and really unpack the difference between Alzheimer's, Dementia, Parkinson's, and more, plus all the things we can be doing early for prevention. We thought who better to discuss this topic with than dream team neurologist's Dr. Kellyann Niotis and Dr. Richard Issacson—their wait-list spans several years and they are the utmost experts in this area. We go further into how our genetics play a role (and don't play a role) and why it's so important to own your health and be your own advocate. If you have any family history of neurological diseases or just want to get educated, we highly recommend you take a listen.Please note that this episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.

Your brain is a powerful force that regulates so many functions and processes in your body. Everything from memory and emotion to temperature and metabolism are controlled by this complex and dynamic organ. Because of the expansive nature of the human brain, the field of neuroscience is vast and ever-evolving. Dr. Lisa Mosconi is a world-renowned neuroscientist who is ranked amongst the top 1% of scientists in the past 20 years. Dr. Mosconi studies the fascinating and growing intersection of neuroscience and nutrition, including how what we eat impacts our brain health and can ultimately determine our susceptibility to neurodegenerative diseases. She is the director of the Women's Brain Initiative and the associate director of the Alzheimer's Prevention Clinic at Weill Cornell Medicine, an adjunct faculty member at the NYU Department of Psychiatry, and the author of two incredible bestselling books, Brain Food and The XX Brain. On today's show, you're going to hear two powerful excerpts from previous interviews with Dr. Lisa Mosconi. She's sharing the science on a wide variety of topics under the umbrella of brain health—including how Alzheimer's disease develops over time, what your brain is made of and what nutrients it needs to survive, how men and women's brains differ, and so much more.
