One of the latest books I read on the brain was Hjernen er stjernen by Norwegian neurologist Kaja Nordengen. The book came up in Norwegian back in 2016. The literal translation is “The Brain is a Star” but it got an English translation as “Your Brain is a Superstar”. I find both titles a bit corny but the book is a very pleasant reading. It has a lighter style than Swaab’s books I mentioned some months back and it is rather short. There will surely be a few things laymen interested in neurology would know – never mind neurologists- but most, including me, will learn a few things. I am still not sure about what Nordengen wrote on some specific food items and brain health but I will keep on reading on this very topic. At the very least she woke my interest on the relationship between neuron activity and food (beyond what we read about nuts, omega 3 and the like).
