Summary

Brain Function explores the crucial link between nutrition and cognitive health, addressing concerns about cognitive decline and the desire to optimize brain performance. It highlights how understanding the neurobiological basis of cognition, including memory and executive functions, can empower individuals to proactively support their brain health. The book reveals that cognitive health isn't solely determined by genetics or age, but is significantly influenced by lifestyle factors, particularly nutrition. For example, specific nutrients like certain vitamins and fatty acids have been scientifically proven to impact brain health. The book's approach balances scientific rigor with accessibility, avoiding jargon and explaining complex concepts clearly. It delves into how diet can prevent age-related cognitive decline and potentially mitigate neurodegenerative diseases. Inflammation's impact on cognitive function and the importance of gut health are also explored. Readers will gain insights into actionable dietary strategies, supplement recommendations, and lifestyle modifications.

 
The book progresses logically, starting with the foundations of cognitive psychology and neuroscience. It then explores specific nutrients and their impact, followed by the role of diet in preventing cognitive decline. The evidence presented is drawn from peer-reviewed studies, clinical trials, and longitudinal research. It emphasizes the synergistic effects of combining different nutrients for optimal cognitive support, offering a holistic understanding of how to enhance and preserve cognitive abilities.

    As It Turns Out is a family story. Alice Sedgwick Wohl is writing to her brother Bobby, who died in a motorcycle accident in 1965, just before their sister Edie Sedgwick met Andy Warhol. After unexpectedly coming across Edie's image in a clip from Warhol's film Outer and Inner Space, Wohl was moved to put her inner dialogue with Bobby on the page in an attempt to reconstruct Edie's life and figure out what made Edie and Andy such iconic figures in American culture. What was it about Andy that enabled him to anticipate so much of contemporary culture? Why did Edie draw attention wherever she went? Who exactly was she, who fascinated Warhol and captured the imagination of a generation? 
 
 
 
Wohl tells the story as only a sister could, from their childhood on a California ranch and the beginnings of Edie's lifelong troubles in the world of their parents to her life and relationship with Warhol within the silver walls of the Factory, in the fashionable arenas of New York, and as projected in the various critically acclaimed films he made with her. As Wohl seeks to understand the conjunction of Edie and Andy, she writes with a keen critical eye and careful reflection about their enduring impact. As It Turns Out is a meditation addressed to her brother about their sister, about the girl behind the magnetic image, and about the culture she and Warhol introduced.
