The Performance Diet Intelligence, Memory, Sexuality
How can we stay concentrated all day long? How can we avoid energy drops and sleepiness? How can we keep and develop our memory? How can we stimulate our intellectual alertness? How can we sleep well? How can we improve our sexuality? How can we stay fit and enhance our physical capacities? J.M. Bourre shows that the answers to all these questions and many others can be also found in what we eat.

Jean-Marie Bourre
Food for Thought And Pleasure
"Why do we eat? For our intelligence capacity, aswell as the harmonious functioning of the body. Yes, for the brain you must eat eggs, charcuterie, red meat, as oily fish as possible, accompanied by fruit and vegetables, and complemented by wine and beer. Yes, you must derive pleasure from eating. And no, you don't need to become a herbivore, which would only serve to hinder the development and operation of your brain!" Jean-Marie Bourre
