“You are what you eat!” So they say! 

I have been meaning to read Brain Energy too. Maybe that can be FC book club next after Dune Messiah!

Oh interesting... I've tended to look at this the other way: my mental state causing my eating/appetite to change (usually to just not being able to eat anything at all). Now I wanna read this and see it from the other direction: my diet/appetite causing my mental state to change. Hadn't thought in this direction b4

I have heard a lot of good things about it but never read myself!

would you rec Big Brain Energy? never heard of it!

No but I am thinking I might organize an FC group read! I have heard great things about it and it’s been on my list forever

Have you read the book? If so would you recommend it?

Interesting take. I wonder if it’s worth the read. 🤔 I have heard hypotheses about microbiomes but not metabolism generally. The book has great reviews all around but it’s nastily expensive in 🇨🇦.
