This week The Wellness Guys interview Professor Andrew Scholey about psychopharmacology (the way drugs and foods affect our moods, sensation, thinking and behavior). The professor talks about why the pharmaceutical approach to the brain “has not worked” and how the answer may be in our foods. He talks in particular about what research is showing about curcumin (an extract of tumeric) and how it can have an impact on inflammation. So tune in to get the low down on the brain from the professor!
