    About this ebook

    Discover the Secret to PEAK PERFORMANCE and Transform Your Life!

    Have you ever had days…where you just…. couldn't ….think…. clearly?

    Have you ever experienced a "brain fog" - this kind of feeling that jams your thoughts and actions?

    Would you like to enjoy a LASER-SHARP mind, STRONGER will power, and HEALTHY BRAIN?

    If so - KEEP READING!

     

    Just imagine how it's like to FEEL sharp, smart, and clever, no matter what you do. You ALWAYS know what you should do next, work is just flowing and fun, and you experience kind of a "background happiness" - you just feel in control and you know where you're going.

    Your body is getting in better shape, your confidence is up, you are much more open to social interactions, and even your bad habits are starting to shake off. 

     

    This isn't a fantasy.

     

    You can achieve this state - and live it, day after day - with just a few tweaks to your diet.

    Your brain is the master organ in your body. Everything is controlled by this complicated computer, which operates your entire body, from head to toe, from eye-sight to digestion, from feelings of high self-esteem to stress and anxiety. 

     

    By feeding your brain with specific foods - such as fish, blueberries, and even coffee - you help it operate much, much more effectively.

     

    And with a healthy brain, you can expect to:

    • Build positive habits, effortlessly
    • Cut bad habits such as smoking, binge eating, emotional vulnerability
    • Improve your metabolism and fitness levels
    • Reach your goals without slacking off

    And that's just the tip of the iceberg.

     

    In this comprehensive book, you will discover how to feed your brain with the nutrients it needs, drastically improve your brain's health, and sharpen your mind to the sharpest level!

     

    Here's what you can expect:

    • Achieve high performance in your work, social life, and happiness levels
    • Know exactly what to eat when you experience a "brain fog" that sabotages your workflow
    • Reveal the #1 food that can drastically improve your brain's health (hint: you probably LOVE it!)
    • Learn how brain health and brain food play an IMPORTANT ROLE in burning fat, gaining muscle mass, and regulating the body's metabolism
    • Full list of super-foods that will turbocharge your results
    • Delicious brain-charging recipes, snacks and tips

    And much, much more!

     

    Don't say "it will not work for me".

     

    This book is made of extensive research, studies, and scientific proof. It is NOT a general recipes cookbook - it contains ONLY brain-food recipes and health advice. Try the recipes inside FOR ONLY ONE WEEK and watch your performance soar!

    Even if you have never tried a diet before…even if you've tried different things - but still failed…even if you HAVE NO CLUE where to start…"Brain Food" by John Torrance will take you by the hand and get you results!

    John R. Torrance

    John R. Torrance ist ein Sachbuchautor und populärer Redner mit über 10 Jahren Erfahrung in den Bereichen Selbsthilfe, Projektmanagement und Produktivität. Er hat mit zahlreichen Brands weltweit zusammengearbeitet. Er verfügt über umfangreiche Berufserfahrung und einen Abschluss in Betriebswirtschaft und führt häufig persönliche Experimente zur Selbstverbesserung durch, wie z. B. das tägliche Checken sozialer Plattformen zu reduzieren oder wöchentlich ein Mentorenprogramm durchzuführen. Dies hat ihm geholfen, die richtige Formel zu finden, um seine Karriere anzukurbeln, Projekte erfolgreich zu managen und die Produktivität zu steigern - und dabei immer noch genug Zeit für andere wichtige Aspekte des Lebens zu haben, wie Familie, Freunde und das allgemeine Wohlbefinden. Er über seine Geschichte: "Früher war ich wie ein Blatt, das vom Wind umhergeweht wird und dort landet, wo es hingeblasen wird. Ich wusste nicht, wie ich mein Leben in den Griff bekommen konnte, und so waren die Orte und Situationen, in denen ich landete, nicht wirklich das, was ich mir vorgestellt hatte, und ich war weder glücklich noch zufrieden. Ich hatte große Ziele und Träume. Ich musste etwas tun, um der Person näher zu kommen, die ich werden wollte, und um das zu tun, was ich im Leben wirklich tun wollte." John Torrance beschäftigte sich eingehend mit den besten Praktiken in den Bereichen Projektmanagement und Produktivität und wandte sie an. Er übte sich auch in Disziplin und Konzentration, überwand persönliche Ängste, schuf gute Gewohnheiten und legte schlechte ab, während er kluge Schritte in Richtung seiner Lebensziele unternahm. Nach einem Jahrzehnt Erfahrung als Produktivitätscoach gibt er nun umsetzbare Tipps und Tricks weiter, damit andere lernen, sich zu motivieren, um ihre persönlichen Ziele zu erreichen, starke Gewohnheiten zu entwickeln, ihren Geist zu kontrollieren und zu disziplinieren, in ihrem Traumjob zu brillieren und glücklicher und zufriedener im Leben zu sein. John liebt es zu reisen, zu schreiben und es sich mit seiner Katze und einem guten Buch gemütlich zu machen. Er liebt Geschichten, die inspirieren, und die Menschen dahinter. Mit seinen Vorträgen und Büchern hofft er, dass auch er Menschen dazu inspirieren kann, alles zu sein, was sie sein können und mehr.

      Introduction

      You know that annoying friend who just seems to get everything done? You know who I mean, because the minute you read that first sentence, a face popped into your head. Yes, I’m talking about the person who seems laser sharp all the time and who never skips a beat. As much as that person drives you nuts, deep down inside you’d like to be just a teensy bit more like that, wouldn’t you? Okay, admit it. Maybe a whole lot more like that. A little more success wouldn’t do you any harm, or your wallet, either! Am I right? (I’m paid to know these things.)

      Well, your old grandma was right all along: You are what you eat. Mounting research is proving her true. After years of too many drive-through orders on jam-packed days, too many snacks consumed while binge watching your favorite TV episodes, and too many salads skipped in favor of mac n cheese, you’re definitely feeling the effects. What is more, you’re a walking showcase of what you’re eating. The muffin top and love handles bear ample testimony of your lifestyle. Personally, I’m not interested in the shape of your body. I’m more interested in the shape of your brain—your body just tips you off about having become an accident looking for a place to happen.

      You feel bloated much of the time. Your work is suffering. Your relationships are suffering as well. You just don’t feel like going dancing or engaging in that game of touch football. You skip breakfast most days and opt for a pastry you scarf down during your commute. What lunch? Mid-mornings and mid-afternoons you crash and need a Snickers to keep your productivity humming. You are tired in the morning and tired in the evening, but when you go to bed, your brain isn’t switching over to the off position. This is no way to live. Literally. Your brain is a ticking time bomb, and one day it will result in a cerebral incident (stroke) or, just as bad, permanent fog (dementia). Those kinds of life-changing incidents are actually years in the making and offer no quick fix. The fix is now. Today. Tomorrow.

      Let’s face it. You need to engage. Your relationships need you to be all in. Your kids beg for attention and if they don’t get it, they act out in unacceptable ways. Your work requires more and more time, more and more effort. You need to be increasingly productive to stay competitive. Whatever the demands you’re juggling, you need to be at your absolute best, and I can relate.

      Not so long ago I was in your shoes. Every one of those symptoms described my daily life, and I knew I had to do something to pull myself up by the bootstraps and make a change. I simply couldn’t juggle all the balls in my life, and, all too often, the one I dropped caused serious consequences. It took some research. I did a lot of experimenting. What I learned knocked my socks off. Every symptom I described related directly to what I was eating...or not eating! In this world of way too much information, I had not been getting the information I needed. There is a connection between food and the brain, and when I discovered that connection, my world shifted.

      All of a sudden, something I’d known all my life got spun around in just a little different perspective, and it changed the way I thought, the way I acted. For me it was seeing a colleague my age succumb to a stroke, his life permanently changed in the blink of an eye. The once vital friend I enjoyed on adventures was confined to a wheelchair and communication became a whole lot more difficult. His mind didn’t seize the words he wanted to say. His filter was gone, and what came out of his mouth alienated many of his friends. He became lonely and bitter.

      And I vowed to change. Just like that. I began to change. Not in a day. Not drastically. I started reading my way to better health. I started experimenting with what I read. I started changing the way I ordered food on a menu at my favorite restaurant. I started making grocery lists based on what was good for me, rather than impulsively picking things off the shelf that looked good on the spur of the moment. Slowly but surely, I changed. You can as well.

      What you eat must supply the raw energy your brain needs for optimal function. That does not include a diet of cheeseburgers and soft drinks. Eating the right foods increases the cognitive power of your brain, the thinking power. It reduces the risk of Alzheimer’s disease, one of the newest plagues of our generation. It removes brain fog leaving you in a slump at your desk. It improves your memory. The right food = less brain fog, more brain function. The right food = less dementia, more focus. Food = brain function (or lack thereof)..

      When I made just a few changes in the way I looked at food and its intake, an elemental shift took place. I ate better. I performed better. I slept better. I decided I needed to make this information available to others. I began with friends and family. When they raved over what I discovered, I tried to branch out, but my circle of influence was not wide enough. How should I change that? I first  looked at the wonderful world wide web.

      Here’s what I discovered: Too many gurus want to charge you megabucks for an online course. There’s a whole lot of talk, and who has time for that? It’s certainly not what I had in mind. I wanted to put together an easy to follow, life-changing program, for just the cost of a book, making it enjoyable to read, and easy to follow. Here’s my plan for you: Read the information so you understand why you’ve been feeling low. Study my findings on superfoods, and how easy it is to incorporate them into your life. Try my recipes. Then turn around and teach this information to your family. Chart your progress. You will be amazed.

      The benefits of this program are hard to beat. You will find easy to digest information and enjoy reading it! You will feel better. You will probably look better...you’re not opposed to dropping a few pounds, are you? You will earn kudos from clients and your boss, who will be impressed with your soaring productivity.

      Here’s my promise to you: I will not make claims I cannot prove. I will not bore you with too much background information...though I will provide a lot of detailed research in a glossary at the back of the book. I will coach you to better health. That’s a keyword. Did you
