5 Minute Brain-Friendly Snacks with Lian...

Jim Kwik, Your Brain Coach, Founder www.KwikLearning.com
About this episode

The food we eat matters to our gray matter—no matter how much work we put into our learning, it won’t be effective if our biology is suffering from poor food choices. But we don’t have to overhaul our diet overnight—small changes to your diet, one food at a time, will add up over time and can help you to achieve better health and a brighter brain without disrupting your daily life.

I’m excited to welcome today’s guest, Liana Werner-Gray. Liana is the author of three books—Cancer Free with Food, 10 Minute Recipes, and Earth Diet. She’s here to tell how we can make brain-friendly snacks that are both nutritious and delicious for us to eat!

In this conversation, we’ll hear about Liana’s health journey and explain why food is so important to your health. We’ll give you some tips for changing your food habits and take you through a quick brain-friendly chocolate brownie recipe!
