Discover the critical link between your brain and the food you eat and change the way your brain ages, in this cutting-edge, practical guide to eliminating brain fog, optimizing brain health, and achieving peak mental performance from media personality and leading voice in health Max Lugavere.
After his mother was diagnosed with a mysterious form of dementia, Max Lugavere put his successful media career on hold to learn everything he could about brain health and performance. For the better half of a decade, he consumed the most up-to-date scientific research, talked to dozens of leading scientists and clinicians around the world, and visited the country’s best neurology departments—all in the hopes of understanding his mother’s condition.
Now, in Genius Foods, Lugavere presents a comprehensive guide to brain optimization. He uncovers the stunning link between our dietary and lifestyle choices and our brain functions, revealing how the foods you eat directly affect your ability to focus, learn, remember, create, analyze new ideas, and maintain a balanced mood.
Weaving together pioneering research on dementia prevention, cognitive optimization, and nutritional psychiatry, Lugavere distills groundbreaking science into actionable lifestyle changes. He shares invaluable insights into how to improve your brain power, including
- the nutrients that can boost your memory and improve mental clarity (and where to find them);
- the foods and tactics that can energize and rejuvenate your brain, no matter your age;
- a brain-boosting fat-loss method so powerful it has been called “biochemical liposuction”; and
- the foods that can improve your happiness, both now and for the long term.
With Genius Foods, Lugavere offers a cutting-edge yet practical road map to eliminating brain fog and optimizing the brain’s health and performance today—and decades into the future.

"I’m not in the fitness world. I’m not a scientist. I’m not a doctor. What I am is a daughter who lost her dad to Alzheimer’s when he was only 60 years old. He’ll never walk me down the aisle, sing me Happy Birthday in the voice of the cowardly lion or pat my head and call me his “genius†again. Why I love this book so much is because Max doesn’t want another single human on the planet to forget who they are, what they like and who they love. He writes from the perspective of a son who’s mom is sick.
I don’t want to spend hours pouring over research I don’t understand trying to decide what is real and what are lies. I don’t want to dig in and find out who is funding what. I have other things I promised my dad I would do. Thankfully Max is doing it all for me. All for us.
This book provides a path for me to feel clear headed, energized and live a long life remembering things like where my dad took me for a surprise in second grade.
This book makes me feel like my father’s genius. I’m excited to gift it to everyone I know."

- First of all, I highly recommend this book! It is definitely now on the top of my required reading list for my nutrition clients as an easy to understand, comprehensive, educational source of information.
Max's writing style is personable and relevant, with a nice sprinkling of modern cultural references just for fun. This work contains clear, concise, applicable and well sourced nutritional concepts that challenge not just the status quo and the (not so well researched) government dietary standards, but also highlights new information that could shift some recommendations made by nutritionists and other health professionals.
One of my favorite things about Max's work, which is strongly represented in this book, is his unique ability to take current scientific research, process it, assimilate it, and then give it to us in a truly comprehensive way, without "dumbing it down". You will walk away from this book with practical, usable information to immediately apply to your diet, and a strong desire to share it with everyone important in your life.
It is a great read for both the person who has very little knowledge of food and the body, AND for the well educated nutritional professional.
Some of my favorite highlights include
Field Notes at the end of each chapter break down weighty concepts into bite-sized tweetable/quotable/memorable nuggets.
The genius foods highlighted throughout the book list specific superfoods that quite literally feed your brain.
FAQ's at the end of some sections immediately address real life questions that come up after concepts are presented. It brings it back home after a challenging idea is shared.
Doctor's Notes- the book was coauthored by a functional MD who adds the medical perspective in applicable snippets.
Bioindividuality- the authors are careful to recognize that for every trend there are outliers that don't fit, whether for genetic or environmental reasons. There is still no such thing as a one size fits all food model and I appreciate that this was addressed. With that awareness though, I truly believe that by applying the concepts covered in this book, almost anyone will see improvements in their overall health. - I’m not in the fitness world. I’m not a scientist. I’m not a doctor. What I am is a daughter who lost her dad to Alzheimer’s when he was only 60 years old. He’ll never walk me down the aisle, sing me Happy Birthday in the voice of the cowardly lion or pat my head and call me his “genius†again.

This book makes me feel like my father’s genius. I’m excited to gift it to everyone I know. - This book is my new go-to resource to which I may refer to people when they ask, “What do you do?†So many people struggle with their weight, and because I am relatively fit and lean, they ask me what I do. I have a Word document I put together with a list of people and reference materials with internet links (including “breadheadthemovie.comâ€), but now, I plan to recommend reading Genius Foods. This book has it all! What I have been learning about and incorporating in my life is everything I have found that is protective of my brain. I am interested in maintaining or even improving my cognitive abilities as well as my good health and fitness. I am also seeking to optimize longevity – or more importantly – health span. Of course, what is good for the brain is good for the body, and this book has everything one needs – like the instruction manual for maintenance of the modern human. Everything I have learned by reading over a dozen books and countless blogs and research articles and by listening to hundreds of hours of podcasts has been distilled into this easy-to-read, incredibly informative, and surprisingly entertaining book. (The pop culture references abound! Use your brain, and see if you can catch them all. After all, “Winter is coming…â€) Yes, I think you will enjoy reading it even if you are not a health nerd who regularly indulges on this type of information (like me). I am very impressed with the breadth of the book’s content. Max and Dr. Grewal are busting many long-held but health-harming myths and giving you the powerful information and practical tips and tools you need to save your brain – and the rest of your body - from the ravages of this modern toxic environment. #GeniusFoods
- Coming from a family that has struggled with neurological disease, I went into reading Genius Foods with an open mind. I desperately want to find a book that I can pass on to Dad who has Parkinson's disease that can give him some hope. At this point hope is what he needs and I believe that Max's book is going to be a fantastic gift for him. Easy to read and full of solid information. I learned a lot that I will be implementing in my own family and will be passing on the information not only to Dad and Mom but to my friends as well. I would say that you have nothing to loose and everything to gain by picking up a copy of Genius Foods. I can almost guarantee that everyone will find at least a few new ideas that they can apply to their life right now that will make a positive difference VERY quickly!
