Summary

The number one New York Times best-selling author of Grain Brain, and his physician son, explore how modern culture threatens to rewire our brains and damage our health, offering a practical plan for healing.   

Contemporary life provides us with infinite opportunities, along with endless temptations. We can eat whatever we want, whenever we want. We can immerse ourselves in the vast, enticing world of digital media. We can buy goods and services with the touch of a button or the swipe of a finger. But living in this 24/7 hyper-reality poses serious risks to our physical and mental states, our connections to others and even to the world at large.

Brain Wash builds from a simple premise: Our brains are being gravely manipulated, resulting in behaviours that leave us more lonely, anxious, depressed, distrustful, illness-prone and overweight than ever before. Based on the latest science, the audiobook identifies the mental hijacking that undermines each and every one of us, and it presents the tools necessary to think more clearly, make better decisions, strengthen bonds with others and develop healthier habits. Featuring a 10-day boot camp program, including a meal plan and 40 delicious recipes, Brain Wash is the key to cultivating a more purposeful and fulfilling life.

Vilifying meat without good science backning it up, dont eat junk, sure, but meat is a very important part of the human direkt, vegetables, not so much. Otherwise a good book that makes you want to sleep more, meditate and spend time with nature.

I read the sample chapters on Amazon and felt I would get something from this book. It seemed as though it was aimed precisely at me. The book is good, full of interesting and useful studies, as well as some good albeit sometimes obvious and simple tips and suggestions. I would give the book 4/5 over all, but on audible the narration is tough. It feels as if being spoken to by a robot, and unlike other books, because of this it is not engaging and my attention was lost often...

It's a shame really - good book, ruined by bad narration.

The narrator's voice is robotic and unpleasant

It gives you a framework to improve your life. I was already familiar with some things in the book but reading it made me l realise where I'd have to make some changes to take control of my brain. We live in a world where our brains are not ours and this destroys our lives and our health and the way we communicate with each other.

Loved it! Straight to the point!
