- The vegan bridge : expanding plant-based cuisine / by Avril, Romain,author.; Tablang, Richelle,author.;
"The Vegan Bridge is a cookbook which makes vegan meals excitingly approachable to vegans and carnivores alike. With recipes that range from comfortable to complex, Avril and Tablang bridge the gap and show everyone that incorporating a few vegan meals into everyday life can be simple, without sacrificing flavour or presentation. The Chefs use their French training, the secrets and techniques they learned working in Michelin Starred restaurants, and share them with home cooks in their simple and approachable recipes. Avril and Tablang are not here to convert the world to an all-vegan diet or divide readers into outdated categories, but to illustrate the benefits of sprinkling vegan flare into one's diet by providing recipes that are equally as enticing as any meat dish would be, finding balance -- building that bridge."--- Subjects: Cookbooks.; Recipes.; Vegan cooking.;

- Change your diet, change your mind : a powerful plan to improve mood, overcome anxiety, and protect memory for a lifetime of optimal mental health / by Ede, Georgia,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index."We are in the midst of a global mental health crisis: -More than one in six American adults now take psychiatric medication. -The prevalence of Alzheimer's disease is expected to triple by 2050. -Depression is now the number one cause of disability in the world. -The COVID-19 pandemic has quadrupled reports of anxiety and depression. Although medications may ease suffering for some, in Change Your Diet, Change Your Mind, Dr. Georgia Ede argues that the most powerful way to change brain chemistry is with food, because what we eat is where our brain's chemicals come from. For years, we've been told the way to protect our brains is through superfoods and supplements-we top our oatmeal with blueberries, choose plant-based patties over hamburgers, and wash down handfuls of supplements with green smoothies. But the science says: not only do these strategies fail people, but they can also work against them. The truth about brain food is that meat is not dangerous, vegan diets are not healthier, and antioxidants will not help you. In this provocative, illuminating book, Dr. Ede explains why everything we think we know about eating for neurological psychological well-being is wrong. Most of what we accept as true is based on studies that take an "outside-in" approach, making associations between healthy people and what they eat. In her book, Dr. Ede takes an inside-out stance, drawing on a range of disciplines like biochemistry, neuroscience, and botany to explain why a ketogenic diet combined with "kinder, gentler plant foods" is the best way to nourish, protect, and energize the brain"--- Subjects: Recipes.; Mental health; Mood (Psychology); Nutrition;
