Guest guest Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 Change Your Brain, Change your Life book in 98 helped me a lot. Husband and I flew across the country to get brain scans last september when I was fed up with local service and husband. Dr. Amen is good but I didn't like the doctor at his satellite clinic (he has four).I learned from the scans but not much from the psychiatrist. Added a BMI/brain scan study to my bibliography - obese people have less brain activity /blood flow: http://www.nature.com/oby/journal/vaop/ncurrent/full/oby201116a.html C. Willeumier, V. and G. Amen Elevated BMI Is Associated With Decreased Blood Flow in the Prefrontal Cortex Using SPECT Imaging in Healthy Adults, (Obesity (2011)) DOI:10.1038/oby.2011.16 **so being fat makes us think slow or thinking slow makes us fat - I think it goes along with the fat people are sick people theory that I have been working on. I liked all the books that I've looked at of his and his nutrient recommendation information was good; however he is on board with vitamin D as of Sept/2010. His process seems commercialized now - we were pumped through there system with a big emphasis on payment.
