Great teamwork!

Great brain science & they go together good like Ben and Jerry's ice cream. But low carb.

Practical and informative!

I've learned about health matters every time Dr. Wood appears on a podcast and have enjoyed Dr. Turknett's brainjo bites series and his book. We are lucky that they have teamed up to address topics related to the brain. Each podcast gives concise, helpful information that we can act on to improve brain health. Highly recommended and a big thanks to Drs. Wood and Turknett!

A Great Service

I've never written reviews b4 but I'm compelled to take a moment to do so here. This podcast is super informative and equally inspirational. The dissemenation of the concepts and ideas shared here, I believe, is a great service to the world community, giving us tools and understanding to better understand our minds and ourselves. Thank you for doing this Josh!
