The Memory Diet: More than 150 Healthy Recipes for the Proper Care and Feeding of Your Brain
by Judi Zucker Shari ZuckerA cookbook based on the scientifically tested MIND diet, designed to protect against cognitive decline.Is there anything we can do to prevent Alzheimer’s disease or dementia? Do we have to accept that memory loss is just part of the natural progression of aging? The Memory Diet introduces a powerful, plant-based diet of leafy greens, vegetables, berries, nuts, beans, and whole grains that can slow down or even eliminate cognitive decline. The more than 150 healthy recipes—from awesome appetizers and exceptional entrees to spectacular salads and super soups—are all free of white sugar, processed ingredients, and gluten. The Memory Diet’s brain-boosting recipes are based on the Mediterranean Intervention Neurodegenerative Delay (MIND) Diet, a diet plan that may reduce the risk of developing Alzheimer’s by as much as fifty-three percent. In addition, you’ll learn how to cook these foods the correct way, as many cooking methods actually cause biochemical changes in the food we eat that can negatively affect our brain health, accelerate the aging process, and cause memory decline. The Memory Diet also includes an easy-to-follow seven-day meal plan; guidelines for setting up a mindful kitchen; and an extensive resource section listing websites and organizations that support brain health.

The Menial Art of Cooking: Archaeological Studies of Cooking and Food Preparation
by Sarah R. Graff Enrique Rodríguez-AlegríaAlthough the archaeology of food has long played an integral role in our understanding of past cultures, the archaeology of cooking is rarely integrated into models of the past. The cooks who spent countless hours cooking and processing food are overlooked and the forgotten players in the daily lives of our ancestors. The Menial Art of Cooking shows how cooking activities provide a window into other aspects of society and, as such, should be taken seriously as an aspect of social, cultural, political, and economic life. This book examines techniques and technologies of food preparation, the spaces where food was cooked, the relationship between cooking and changes in suprahousehold economies, the religious and symbolic aspects of cooking, the relationship between cooking and social identity, and how examining foodways provides insight into social relations of production, distribution, and consumption. Contributors use a wide variety of evidence--including archaeological data; archival research; analysis of ceramics, fauna, botany, glass artifacts, stone tools, murals, and painted ceramics; ethnographic analogy; and the distribution of artifacts across space--to identify evidence of cooking and food processing left by ancient cooks. The Menial Art of Cooking is the first archaeological volume focused on cooking and food preparation in prehistoric and historic settings around the world and will interest archaeologists, social anthropologists, sociologists, and other scholars studying cooking and food preparation or subsistence.

by Lisa MosconiAn instant New York Times bestseller!The New York Times bestselling author of The XX Brain shows women how to navigate menopause successfully and come out the other side with an even better brain.Menopause and perimenopause are still a black box to most doctors, leaving patients exasperated as they grapple with symptoms ranging from hot flashes to insomnia to brain fog. As a leading neuroscientist and women&’s brain health specialist, Dr. Mosconi unravels these mysteries by revealing how menopause doesn&’t just impact the ovaries—it&’s a hormonal show in which the brain takes center stage.

To conquer these challenges successfully, Dr. Mosconi brings us the latest approaches—explaining the role of cutting-edge hormone replacement therapies like &“designer estrogens,&” hormonal contraception, and key lifestyle changes encompassing diet, exercise, self-care, and self-talk. Best of all, Dr. Mosconi dispels the myth that menopause signifies an end, demonstrating that it&’s actually a transition. Contrary to popular belief, if we know how to take care of ourselves during menopause, we can emerge with a renewed, enhanced brain—ushering in a meaningful and vibrant new chapter of life.

The Menu AND The Cycle of Cost Control
by Paul J Mcvety Susan D Marshall Bradley J WareThe 6th edition of The Menu and the Cycle of Cost Control features current information on menu development, trends and concepts, cost control and sales analysis documents, industry-related law and requirements, as well as the necessary control procedures and mathematical processes to help to control costs and analyze sales. Almost every procedure discussed, from recipe costing to labor cost controls, can be accomplished using a Point of Sales (POS) system with the right configurations. The POS can provide the business's cost and sales information often by simply running a report. However, what good is the information (a bunch of numbers and percentages) if a manager does not know what the information is indicating? Therefore, it is even more important to know how the information was calculated and what the information means so the results can be utilized to the business's advantage. To put it simply, all formulas within the text and website are just mathematical support to the common sense of chefs and managers.

The Met Flex Diet: Burn Better Fuel, Burn More Fat
by Ian K. SmithFrom #1 New York Times bestselling author Dr. Ian K. Smith, a powerful six-week plan to burn fat more efficiently by improving metabolic flexibility.The human body has the amazing ability to switch which fuels it uses for energy based on what fuel is available at the time—researchers call this metabolic flexibility. Bodies that are able to make this switch can burn sugars, proteins, and other food nutrients when available, and then switch to burning the body’s fat storage or fatty acids when food calories are not available. It turns out that losing weight is not just about burning calories, it’s also about switching between these pathways as efficiently as possible. Yet little has been written about how to achieve metabolic flexibility—until now.Dr. Ian K. Smith is a renowned medical expert and the author of numerous bestselling health books. In The Met Flex Diet, he offers a one-of-a-kind plan to improve metabolic flexibility through changing the types and quantities of food/beverages consumed, as well as the type of exercise. Timing is also a factor—timing of meals and timing of exercise relative to when the meals are consumed. All of these variables will play an important role in helping the body make the important switch from one fuel source to another.In just six weeks, readers can experience amazing fat-burning results by following simple guidelines, like:Eat the first meal of the day three hours after waking.Complete a fasted cardio workout within the first two hours of waking.Get at least seven hours of sleep a night.Finish dinner two hours before going to sleep.Complete with meal and exercise plans, as well as recipes, The Met Flex Diet gives readers every tool they need to meet their weight loss goals.
