In this episode of the Kwik Brain podcast, host Jim Kwik interviews Dr. Daniel Amen about his new book, "Change Your Brain Every Day." Dr. Amen emphasizes the importance of daily practices for brain and mental health, just like spiritual or physical health. He introduces the concept of "brain envy," advocating for loving and caring for one's brain to make better decisions. They discuss tiny habits, such as asking if a current action is good or bad for the brain, and avoiding substances like alcohol and marijuana that can harm brain cells. Dr. Amen shares practical tips like staying hydrated, taking supplements like Vitamin D and saffron, flossing, and prioritizing sleep. He also shares a story about an 83-year-old woman who transformed her life by adopting these brain-healthy habits. The conversation highlights the significance of making small, consistent changes to improve brain health and overall well-being.
