The Gut-Brain Paradox - Steven R. Gundry

Dr. Steven R. Gundry, the New York Times bestselling author of the groundbreaking Plant Paradox series, shares compelling evidence that our gut microbiome is driving our thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and our mental, emotional, and neuronal health—and shows us how to heal our microbiomes to take back control of our minds. In his previous bestselling books, Steven R. Gundry taught readers how to reverse disease and improve health and well-being by preventing and repairing leaky gut. In The Gut-Brain Paradox, a fascinating look at the gut-brain connection, he delves even more deeply into the mysterious and long misunderstood world of the human microbiome. Here Dr. Gundry uncovers the complex and multifaceted ways in which our microbes are controlling the health and functioning of our brains, and how this connection is made long before we are even born. The Gut-Brain Paradox shines a fascinating light on how the one-two punch of leaky gut and gut dysbiosis, together driven by western diets, overuse of antibiotics and other medications, and environmental toxins allow pathogenic bacteria to take over. These “bad bugs” cause inflammation and hijack the intricate messaging systems that run from the gut to the brain, setting the stage for neurological changes, brain ...

Skryté tajemství dlouhověkosti - Zůstaňte mladí až do vysokého věku - Steven R. Gundry

Doktor Steven Gundry si velmi dobře uvědomuje jeden prostý fakt: Každý člověk by nejraději žil navždy – ovšem jen do té doby, než se dožije středního věku a začne si uvědomovat, jak trpí jeho rodiče, a dokonce i někteří vrstevníci. Jak vyřešit paradox, kdy se chceme dožít pokročilého věku a zároveň se těšit z výhod mládí? V průlomové knize Skryté tajemství dlouhověkosti najdete odpověď. Doktor Gundry pracoval s tisíci pacienty a zjistil, že „nemoci spojované se stárnutím“, kterých se nejvíce obáváme, nejsou ani tak zapříčiněny věkem, ale jsou spíše důsledkem životního stylu. Ve své knize představuje nový přístup k příjemnému stárnutí založený na podpoře zdraví „nejstarší“ součásti lidského těla: mikroorganismů, které v něm žijí. Střevní mikrobi – bakterie tvořící mikrobiom – do značné míry předurčují naše zdraví. Mikrobi řídí náš život, podílejí se na všech funkcích lidského těla a ovlivňují řadu faktorů od tělesné váhy přes vzhled kůže až po to, zda se u nás rozvinou běžné nemoci, jako je artritida, či závažnější onemocnění jako například rakovina nebo Alzheimerova choroba. Pozitivní zpráva je, že nikdy není pozdě střevní mikroby podpořit a dopřát jim vše, co potřebují k tomu, aby prosperovali – když se bude dobře dařit jim, bude se dařit ...

Consider the changes that have already taken place in how we communicate. During the last half of the twentieth century, images displaced words as the common parlance of communication. On the nightly news we’ve become accustomed to watching images drawn from video cameras used by law enforcement and, thanks to a proliferating number of cellphones, everyday use. Yet AI is turning the traditional dynamic that images carry more weight than words (“seeing is believing”) upside down because we now have to question the authenticity of images. We are finding ourselves forced to adjust to a world where what we see is not always what’s really happening.  Next, consider the effects of our changing environment on our brains and our behavior.

Skrytá tajemství keto diety - Revoluční poznatky, více benefitů bez strádání - Steven R. Gundry

NENÍ TO TAK, JAK SI MYSLÍTE! Další kniha doktora Gundryho odhaluje nový a neuvěřitelný paradox související s ketony a jejich vlivem na snižování tělesné váhy, zdraví a dlouhověkost. Jeho výzkum ukázal, že ketony nejsou nějakým zvláštním zdrojem zázračného buněčného paliva.Spíše fungují jako životně důležité signalizační molekuly, které dávají mitochondriím povel, aby se pustily do práce a začaly spalovat kalorie. Nejnovější výzkumy však ukazují, že úloha mitochondrií zahrnuje mnohem víc než jen tvorbu energie. Mají nepostradatelný vliv nejen na přežití, ale také na dlouhověkost.Abyste skutečně pochopili, jak mitochondrie fungují, musíte zapomenout na vše, co jste si mysleli, že víte o ketonech. Až pochopíte, jak mitochondrie ovlivňují váš metabolismus, už si nebudete muset dělat starosti kvůli procentům tuku, proporcím makroživin, kaloriím ani dalším měrným jednotkám. Nový pohled na mitochondrie otevírá zdravou cestu pro lidi, kteří by chtěli ketogenní dietu vyzkoušet, ale nedokázali se vyrovnat s podmínkou konzumace spousty tuků – chcete-li využít příznivého vlivu ketonů, nemusíte jíst obrovské množství nasycených tuků.

The Political Brain - Drew Westen

The Political Brain is a ground-breaking investigation into the role of emotion in determining the political life of the nation. For two decades Drew Westen, professor of psychology and psychiatry at Emory University, has explored a theory of the mind that differs substantially from the more "dispassionate" notions held by most cognitive psychologists, political scientists, and economists,and Democratic campaign strategists. The idea of the mind as a cool calculator that makes decisions by weighing the evidence bears no relation to how the brain actually works. When political candidates assume voters dispassionately make decisions based on "the issues," they lose. That''s why only one Democrat has been re-elected to the presidency since Franklin Roosevelt,and only one Republican has failed in that quest. In politics, when reason and emotion collide, emotion invariably wins. Elections are decided in the marketplace of emotions, a marketplace filled with values, images, analogies, moral sentiments, and moving oratory, in which logic plays only a supporting role. Westen shows, through a whistle-stop journey through the evolution of the passionate brain and a bravura tour through fifty years of American presidential and national elections, why campaigns succeed and fail. The evidence is overwhelming that three things determine how people ... Unknown localization key: "more"

The Beautiful Brain - Alfonso Araque, Larry Swanson, Eric Newman

At the crossroads of art and science, The Beautiful Brain presents Nobel Laureate Santiago Ramón y Cajal’s contributions to neuroscience through his groundbreaking artistic brain imagery. “Among the world’s greatest scientific illustrations. . . . They posit the thing between your ears as an immense cosmic universe, or at least one of the most intricate of all of nature’s creations. That the images are also undeniable as art only adds to the complexity.” —New York Times Santiago Ramón y Cajal (1852–1934) was the father of modern neuroscience and an exceptional artist. He devoted his life to the anatomy of the brain, the body’s most complex and mysterious organ. His superhuman feats of visualization, based on fanatically precise techniques and countless hours at the microscope, resulted in some of the most remarkable illustrations in the history of science.

Phantoms in the Brain - Sandra Blakeslee, V. S. Ramachandran

‘Phantoms in The Brain’ takes a revolutionary new approach to theories of the brain, from one of the world’s leading experimental neurologists.‘Phantoms in The Brain’, using a series of case histories, introduces strange and unexplored mental worlds. Ramachandran, through his research into brain damage, has discovered that the brain is continually organising itself in response to change. A woman maintains that her left arm is not paralysed, a young man loses his right arm in a motorcycle accident, yet he continues to feel a phantom arm with vivid sensation of movement. In a series of experiments using nothing more than Q-tips and dribbles of warm water the young man helped Ramachandran discover how the brain is remapped after injury. Ramachandran believes that cases such as these illustrate fundamental principles of how the human brain operates. The brain ‘needs to create a “script” or a story to make sense of the world, a unified and internally consistent belief system’.Ramachandran’s radical new approach will have far-reaching effects.

The Human Brain - Susan Greenfield

Locked away remote from the rest of the body in its own custom-built casing of skull bone, with no intrinsic moving parts, the human brain remains a tantalising mystery. But now, more than ever before, we have the expertise to tackle this mystery - the last 20 years have seen astounding progress in brain research. Susan Greenfield begins by exploring the roles of different regions of the brain. She then switches to the opposite direction and examines how certain functions, such as movement and vision, are accommodated in the brain. She describes how a brain is made from a single fertilized egg, and the fate of the brain is traced through life as we see how it constantly changes as a result of experience to provide the essence of a unique individual.

A fascinating and incisive examination of our language instinct from award-winning science writer Steven Mithen.Along with the concepts of consciousness and intelligence, our capacity for language sits right at the core of what makes us human. But while the evolutionary origins of language have provoked speculation and impassioned debate, music has been neglected if not ignored. Like language it is a universal feature of human culture, one that is a permanent fixture in our daily lives.In THE SINGING NEANDERTHALS, Steven Mithen redresses the balance, drawing on a huge range of sources, from neurological case studies through child psychology and the communication systems of non-human primates to the latest paleoarchaeological evidence.The result is a fascinating and provocative work and a succinct riposte to those, like Steven Pinker, who have dismissed music as a functionless and unimportant evolutionary byproduct.

The Gaslit Brain - Jennifer Fraser

Shattered Brains not only reveals the psychological functions of the manipulator’s brain, it also reveals the impact gaslighting has on our minds. It shines a spotlight on the way manipulative brains seduce us into believing them which disrupts our mind’s ability to work effectively.This psychological study analyzes the onslaught of gaslighting that has recently dominated the world stage, making many turn to the dictionary just to figure out how it works, who’s at risk, and why it’s becoming normalized. When power, credibility, and social status are harnessed to manipulate – not just individuals – but whole populaces may suffer violence against facts and truth. Our recent concern with gaslighting’s destructive force has made psychological safety a priority in relationships at home and at work. In PART ONE, we look at the impact gaslighting has on targets’ brains and minds. Many do not realize that gaslighting has an extremely harmful neurological impact. If manipulation leads to insanity, it’s because the brain and mind have been distorted and compromised. With the advent of non-invasive technology, scientists use brain imagery to examine what happens to brains that are lied to, manipulated, and betrayed.

Autism and The Predictive Brain - Peter Vermeulen

What if our previous teachings and beliefs regarding processing stimuli, reading emotions and understanding human behaviour is all untrue? In this book, Peter Vermeulen investigates new findings on the predictive brain and what these insights mean for autism and current interventions. Recent research has shown that the classic ideas about how the human brain first needs to process incoming information about the world before it can react are no longer tenable. Rather, to survive in the volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous environment of modern society, what we need is a brain that predicts the world quickly and unconsciously, while taking proper account of the context. This book explains the new theories relating to the predictive brain, summarising some of the more recent highly technical research studies about the predictive mind and autism into as accessible and understandable language as possible. Shedding new light on the predictive brain and its relation to autism, the chapters lead readers to the inevitable conclusion that many of the current interventions used in connection with autism urgently need updating and outline possibilities for revising.
