Feed the brain first to make the nutrition/cognition connection!

Focusing on nutrition's role in promoting learning, the author calls on educators to model good food choices for their students. Building on a simple three-part framework of plant foods, animal foods, and junk foods, and incorporating exercise, the text shows educators how:

  • Healthy eating provides a powerful link to learning
  • Childhood obesity, food allergies, and other disorders may be related to eating habits
  • Breakfast is still the most important meal of the day
  • Brain-jogging exercises enhance brain activity, improve physical health, increase clarity, and reduce stress
