Neuroscientist Dr. Tara Swart knows all about your hungry, hungry hippocampus. She's a medical doctor of psychiatry, the international best-selling author of The Source, a senior lecturer at MIT, a TED talker, a leadership coach, and now, we're proud to say, Chief Science Officer at Heights!
Today, we discuss the incredible effect of nutrition on our brains. If you haven't got a PhD in neuropharmacology, fear not! Tara does, and she condenses her insights into a deliciously moreish Working In.
We talk about:
- Your brain on food
- Sustainable, fish-free ways for getting enough Omega 3s
- Why you shouldn't let your gut bacteria rule your life
- Non-negotiable nutrients for vegans and vegetarians
- Antioxidants, and why you might need to skip the smoked salmon
