Your Brain Controls Your Body More Than Your Heart | Dr. Daniel Amen

“Helmets don’t protect you from brain damage. They protect you from skull fractures.”

Today's guest is Dr. Daniel Amen, who has helped millions of people transform their lives AND brains through Amen Clinics, his best-selling books, and public television programs. The Washington Post has called Dr. Amen “the most popular psychiatrist in America” because of his books, media appearances and clinics which have over 7,000 patient visits a month. Amen Clinics also have the world’s largest database of functional brain scans relating to behavior, totaling over 170,000 scans on patients from 155 countries.

This conversation was so powerful that we had to split it up into 2 parts!

In this episode Lewis and Dr. Amen discuss why the brain has more control over your body than your heart and your mind, the four big circles of the human experience the negative effects that alcohol has on the brain, the five foods that we should eat for better brain health, the biggest benefits of intermittent fasting and the science behind why it works, and so much more!
