<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>How to fix the Modern American Diet and reclaim our minds and waistlines</b> <p/><b>"An insightful, eye opening adventure into diet and nutrition. Concise and witty, this book kept me engaged from cover to cover. A must-have for anyone serious about getting happy and healthy naturally."--Andrew Morton, MD, Board-certified Family Physician; Former Medical Corps, US Navy and Army Infantry Medic, Desert Storm</b> <p/>For the first time in history, too much food is making us sick. The Modern American Diet (MAD) is expanding our waistlines while starving and shrinking our brains. Rates of obesity and depression have recently doubled, and though these epidemics are closely linked, few experts are connecting the dots for the average American. <p/>Using data from the rapidly changing fields of neuroscience and nutrition, <i>The Happiness Diet</i> shows that over the past several generations, small, seemingly insignificant changes to our diet have stripped it of nutrients--like magnesium, vitamin B12, iron, and vitamin D, as well as some very special fats--that are essential for happy, well-balanced brains. These shifts also explain the overabundance of mood-destroying foods in the average American's diet and why they predispose most of us to excessive weight gain. <p/>After a clear explanation of how we've all been led so far astray, <i>The Happiness Diet </i>empowers the reader to steer clear of this MAD way of life with simple, straightforward solutions, including: <br>- A list of foods to swear off<br>- Shopping tips and kitchen organization tricks<br>- A compact healthy cookbook full of brain-building recipes<br>- Practical advice, meal plans, and more! <p/>Graham and Ramsey guide you through these steps and then remake your diet by doubling down on feel-good foods--even the all-American burger. <p/><b>Praise for <i>The Happiness Diet</i></b> <p/>"Finally, a rock-solid, reliable, informative, and entertaining book on how to eat your way to health and happiness.

By changing what you eat, say the authors, you can stabilize your moods. You can improve your focus. You can even make your brain grow. And you thought doughnuts made you happy?!"<b>--<i>Time</i></b> <p/>"Thanks to the modern American diet (MAD), people are getting too many calories from sugar and refined carbohydrates (i.e., empty calories); eating the wrong kinds of fats, like too many omega 6 fats (found in cheap vegetable and seed oils like soy, corn, cottonseed, safflower and sunflower oil); and too many trans fats, which are not only linked to heart disease but to depression."<b>--<i>Self </i>magazine<br></b><br>"Undernourished brains, the authors say, go hand-in-hand with overweight bodies--and they back up these claims with voluminous amounts of data."<b>--The Today Show<br></b><br>"The hefty cheeseburger that adorns the cover represents that book's main theme: the all-American cheeseburger <i>can</i> be healthy, if all the ingredients are natural, full of nutrients, and haven't traveled far from the farm to the plate." <b>--<i>Everyday Health</i><br></b><br>"The authors demonstrate, persuasively, that if you're feeding your brain the Standard American Diet--whose eerily appropriate acronym is SAD--you're undermining your mental health."<b>--<i>Vital Choice</i><br></b><br>"We know that the typical American diet--filled with processed food and added sugar--is making us fat. But it's also making us depressed, according <i>The Happiness Diet</i>, a new book that links food to feelings."<b>--MSNBC<br></b><br>"Full of important facts and useful information (their "Top 100 Reasons to Avoid Processed Foods" will stun even the well-informed), <i>The Happiness Diet</i> offers a nutritional prescription for a sharp brain, balanced mood and lean, energized body."<b>--<i>The Olympian</i><br></b><br>"<i>The Happiness Diet</i> promotes nutritionally rich organically raised meats, dairy and eggs with all the natural fats in tact."<b>--<i>Metro</i><br></b><br>"If you're tired of sulking in a bag of potato chips, give it a try."<b>--<i>The Times Union</i><br></b><br>"Everyone talks about the pursuit of happiness--who knew that what you eat has a direct effect on how you feel, how you think, and how healthy you are?"<b>--<i>Eat Well, Get Well</i><br></b><br>"A lively, thorough, and iron-clad case for real food.
