Grain Brain: Experts say advice on avoiding grains is unhelpful

Experts in the food industry
the idea that
avoiding
intake of
carbohydrates is a magic bullet that can stop many of the conditions that cause cognitive impairment is absurd.this assertion, presented in Dr.
david Perlmutter
's forthcoming book, Grain Brain, has won the support of Dr.
Mehmet Oz
, a source of public consciousness.Perlmutter
has conducted
neurology studies at
Naples
, FL
, Florida, and has written other books on cognitively healthy diets in which he has demonstrated in many ways that most neurological disorders are preventable and that diet is key. The book's subtitle

"The Shocking Truth About Wheat, Carbohydrates, and Sugar -
The Invisible Killer of Your Brain

Although several factors affect the origin and development of brain disorders, to a large extent, many neurological disorders often reflect the mistake of consuming too many carbohydrates and insufficient healthy fats.
”What our ancestors ate Perlmutter
made his dietary recommendations, based on his account of the evolution of our ancestors' diet, which he claimed contained
75 percent
fat,
20%
protein,
5%
carbohydrates, compared to modern dietary recommendations that contain approximately
20%
protein,
20%
fat and
60%
carbohydrates.Perlmutter
claims that the dietary guidelines outlined in his book, which include eating no more than
50g
carbohydrates a day and avoiding most fruits, can have a positive impact on a range of conditions, including ADHD, migraines, epilepsy, mood disorders, and dysphoric syndrome.Grass the Truth about Grains
Julie Miller Jones, Ph.D. in Food and Nutrition at St. Catherine's University and professor of food and nutrition, told reporters "
He has a lot of topics out there, but it's hard to know what to discuss, it's like a field with good plants, some uncertain plants and weeds.
”"

there are nutritionally suggested voices (there), there's truth there," Jones told reporters
at
Phoenix Food Evolution Summit in Washington, D.C.
”Dr. Julie Miller
: According to U.S. dietary guidelines and enough exercise is the best way to protect your brain, not avoid grains.

"
he talks about carbohydrates in grains and fruits as the pathways that trigger inflammation, and if the brain is disturbed, then diet is a problem, he calls attention to older groups who are afraid of losing it and young parents who fear their children may be autistic.
”Misleading images Jones
says the effects of
Perlmutter
on cognitive outcomes
-
obese people have a higher risk of cognitive dysfunction, such as
-
building a ultimately misleading picture of what people with the best cognitive and overall health should eat.said:
"
we have
data
the DAS diet." Its first data came from the
1990s
1990s. Half of the data group got rid of their blood pressure medications, which also showed a lower risk of Alzheimer's disease. We have good Data on the Mediterranean Diet, which has a lot of carbohydrates. It also shows a reduced risk of Alzheimer's disease.
” Promoting The Whole Grains Council: Cereal Brain only confuses the public about what constitutes a healthy diet. Whole Grains Council agreed with Jones' concerns about the book. said in a statement: 'Grain Brain is a misleading and sensational title that distorts current scientific contributions and sadly confuses the public about what constitutes a healthy diet.
” It added that
Perlmutter
have legitimate concerns about carbohydrate-related conditions such as celiac disease, which has prompted him to tilt particularly toward diet recommendations.
Perlmutter
's recommendation to her patients is to use
Protandim
, a multi-part antioxidant supplement manufactured and sold by
LifeVantage
, a Utah-based online marketing company.
Perlmutter is
the company's scientific advisory board. the group wrote that

's leading medical researchers in the field of gluten insatiability and celiac disease have demonstrated that there is no need for our
90
% or more of the population to avoid any grains.
” “
Simply put, there is no evidence that we should avoid all grains in the region.
Perlmutter
himself must be aware of this, since Grain Brain counters that all grains are harmful to brain health and recommends eating leeks, buckwheat, rice (brown, white

sic wild), millet, quinoa, sorghum, eyebrow grass and

gluten-free . not sustainable Says Dr. David Perlmutter:
carbohydrates and too little healthy fat are bad for your brain. that ultimately following standard dietary guidelines and getting enough exercise is the best way to protect your brain. Perlmutter
approach is uneven, and that the foods he recommends may feel isolated, and Jones wonders if most consumers can actually follow the entire process for a long time. ,"
told people to eat salmon (salmon) and avocados. Is that realistic? Will you let your child have that breakfast? Is that sustainable?
