Titles in This Set The Menopause Brain Brain Food: How to Eat Smart and Sharpen Your Mind Details Condition: BRAND NEW Format: Paperback Publisher: Allen & Unwin (The Menopause Brain); Penguin Life (Brain Food) Age Range: Adult (18+) Overview This two-book paperback collection from neuroscientist Dr Lisa Mosconi pairs her Sunday Times bestseller The Menopause Brain with her acclaimed nutrition guide Brain Food. Together they offer a joined-up, evidence-based approach to protecting cognitive health through midlife hormonal change and everyday eating habits, making this set ideal for anyone approaching perimenopause, supporting a loved one, or simply wanting practical, science-led guidance on long-term brain health. About the Books The Menopause Brain explains why menopause and perimenopause remain poorly understood by many doctors, leaving women to navigate hot flushes, insomnia, mood changes and brain fog with little clear guidance. Dr Mosconi, a leading neuroscientist and women's brain health specialist, reveals that menopause is not simply about the ovaries but a hormonal transition in which the brain takes centre stage. The book unpacks how declining oestrogen affects memory, mood and long-term cognitive risk, reviewing hormone replacement options, including "designer oestrogens," alongside lifestyle strategies covering diet, exercise, sleep and stress management. Brain Food turns the focus to nutrition, using rigorous research to separate genuine brain science from popular myth. Drawing on her own research and the expanding understanding of the gut-brain connection, Dr Mosconi identifies foods and habits that can help protect memory, ease stress and reduce the risk of cognitive decline at any age, with immediately actionable guidance on foods to prioritise and foods to limit. Read together, the two titles form a rounded resource: one explaining the hormonal biology of the ageing female brain, the other providing the daily nutritional tools to support it, giving readers a genuinely comprehensive picture of brain health through midlife and beyond. Two complementary guides covering hormones, menopause and brain-healthy nutrition in one set Written by a leading neuroscientist with decades of research into women's brain health Practical, actionable advice readers can use immediately for diet and lifestyle Evidence-based content grounded in peer-reviewed neuroscience and nutrition research Ideal gift for anyone entering perimenopause or menopause, or interested in brain health About the Author Dr Lisa Mosconi is an Associate Professor of Neuroscience in Neurology and Radiology at Weill Cornell Medicine, where she directs the Women's Brain Initiative and the Alzheimer's Prevention Clinic.
