Max Lugavere: How Fasting Affects Brain Health & The Dangers of Air Pollution

When was the last time you checked how safe your air is?

With all of the wild fires, increases in industrial pollution, increases in population—not just in the U.S. but around the world—more than half of us are breathing dirty, polluted air, especially if you're living anywhere close to an urban area, or an industrial area.

One of the most concerning things about breathing polluted air, is that it not only shaves years off of our lives, but it also decreases cognitive performance and actually makes us less intelligent.

When we're breathing polluted air, when we're eating polluted food or drinking polluted water, our livers are basically on overdrive and our bodies have to work harder to filter through a lot more junk.

Returning to the show today to help us put it all together is Mr. Max Lugavere. Max is a filmmaker, Health and Science journalist, and now the New York Times best selling author of Genius Foods.

Max has personally been touched by dementia in his own life, and has made it his mission to spread the word about how you can prevent a lot of these horrible things from happening.

On this show with Max you're about to learn:

• How intermittent fasting affects your brain
• How to get smarter over time (instead of dumber)
• The dangers of air pollution and what you can do about it
• The difference between a wild banana and a cultivated banana
• And tons more...

Let's go hang out with Max.
