Easy Diet Changes Your Brain (and Body) Will Love with Dr. Ayesha Sherzai The Wonder Women Official

Have you ever thought to yourself, “This time, I’m finally going to do it” after promising you’d make healthier lifestyle choices? Then, sooner or later, you fall off the wagon again because “life got in the way” or “it’s too hard”?
Trying to get healthier doesn’t have to be difficult or a chore. You can make easy, incremental changes to your diet and nutrition that positively affect your brain and body.
Dr. Ayesha Sherzai is a brain specialist and neurologist who advocates for optimizing brain health through nutrition and lifestyle choices while emphasizing prevention rather than just treatment. She also has a knack for distilling high-level research for the public and providing easy strategies for implementing small daily changes that can turn into lifetime habits.
In part one of our discussion on The Wonder Women Podcast, you’ll get her tips for improving your brain health through nutrition and learn about the importance of critical thinking, understanding scientific evidence, and valuing expert advice when making decisions about your health. Ayesha will also share the five factors and nine foods that have been extensively studied and proven to impact your brain (and general) health.
