 The Carnivode Code by Paul Saladino
We see many customers in the Co-op who are embracing this dietary approach to positive effect. Particularly with autoimmunity as a factor. This code may not appeal to all but its gaining popularity anecdotally. Worth the read! Dr Paul Saladino produced this book in 2020. That seems a lifetime ago now to be honest as we were getting to grips with making banana bread and sourdough. Our carb addiction is real and satisfying but increasingly we are learning about the downsides and high price. To swing the pendulum extremely the other side it is timely that there is increased evidence to affirm this diet for its healing properties. Get the facts and make up your own mind! Dr. Saladino is the leading authority on the science and application of the carnivore diet. He has used this diet to reverse autoimmunity, chronic inflammation and mental health issues in hundreds of patients, many of whom had been told their conditions were untreatable. Anne Maher

 Change Your Diet Change Your Mind by Dr Georgia Ede
I listened to a recent podcast with Dr Ede on Diary Of A CEO and have recommended a listen! I have heard her speak at a conference too and she is certainly someone that I admire for her work in brain health regarding the role of food… it’s a relatively new concept that our mental health is affected by food.. scratch that, it’s not new but there is increasing recognition that good food is vital for good health. What a coincidence….! Regardless! I like her approach and her messaging. Perhaps we need constant reassurance that this is possible so am looking forward to adding this book to the must reads… Anne Maher  This month, we don’t have any new books to review, but we’d love for you to explore our fantastic book swap section! It’s a great way to enjoy some well-loved and intriguing reads without spending a penny.

Anne Maher  Eating to beat type 2 Diabetes
by Sarah Flower Of course this book is timely with Dr. Unwin visiting in October however it is just one of many offerings out there to help with developing a food strategy for healing. Sarah offers many easy recipes that make low carb a straightforward lifestyle choice. No pictures though but a good start! Anne Maher  Rising interest in traditional and herbal remedies is something we have noted with our membership.
We often have those conversations swapping stories of remedies that we know or have heard of and are accessible to us. It is truly amazing to learn more about the healing properties of food and plants that are locally available. This is why this book appealed as a parent. A simple go to that is worth having in book form. Knowledge will never be a burden and you may never know when it will be useful! Anne Maher  Genius Foods
by Max Lugavere I’m late to the party on this author but this month I am bringing you one of the Genius Living trilogy written by Max Lugavere. The theme though is familiar. Food affects our health both positively and negatively. In terms of our brain health we are sadly more than aware of the negative consequences of our brains not working optimally. In truth it is not easy to nourish a brain in a toxic environment within which we have little control. However, I certainly believe that the more you become familiar with the knowledge and have access to the resources to help, you will have more than a fighting chance of a positive outcome. I like books where dedicated passionate people do the research without being funded to bring a predetermined answer. This book has plenty of information to keep our brains exercised! Now, in Genius Foods, Lugavere uncovers the stunning link between our dietary and lifestyle choices and our brain health, revealing how the foods you eat directly affect your ability to focus, learn, remember, create, analyze new ideas, and maintain a healthy, balanced mood. He presents ground-breaking science and distills the latest research, including:
