Heal depression, anxiety, brain fog, and other mental disorders without drugs.

Every part of your body affects every other part of your body, and if any one area is not functioning properly, other systems will feel it, too. There is a fundamental connection between the brain, the gut, the microbiome, and the thyroid - which Dr Raphael Kellman calls 'the whole brain'. In this lively, accessible book, he reveals how this system works in tandem to keep us healthy, and how, by making small changes, we can use it to heal mood and mental disorders without drugs.

With a practical guide featuring meal plans, an exercise programme, and a programme of daily meditations and affirmations, The Whole Brain Diet will benefit people diagnosed with depression or anxiety, and those who just want to feel better in themselves.

'After decades of treating patients for depression, gastrointestinal problems, low thyroid, and a multitude of other "mysterious" ailments, pioneer in holistic and functional medicine Dr Raphael Kellman has connected the dots between the brain, the gut, the microbiome, and the thyroid. The Whole Brain Diet offers his groundbreaking plan to diminish anxiety and depression - and to give you more energy and vitality.'

- Izabella Wentz, PharmD, FASCP, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Hashimoto's Protocol

'With depression affecting more than 300 million people worldwide, a path to healing that takes into account multiple factors is long overdue. In The Whole Brain Diet, Dr Raphael Kellman shares his groundbreaking research, showing the intimate connections between the gut, microbiome, thyroid, and brain, and then offers a proven, holistic plan that doesn't rely on prescription medication.'

- Dr Mark Hyman, Director of Cleveland Clinic's Center for Functional Medicine, founder of The UltraWellness Center, ten-time #1 New York Times bestselling author

'Dr Kellman has long been on the cutting-edge of health and science. Now, he introduces his groundbreaking concept of The Whole Brain Diet - If you want to improve brain function - if you want your mind to be focused, your memory to be sharp, and your mood to be hopeful - start with a healthier microbiome, heal your gut, and balance your thyroid. This book will show you how.'

- Dr. Terry Wahls, author of The Wahls Protocol - a radical new way to treat all chronic autoimmune conditions
