Hi friends, and welcome to the Betty Eatz Podcast! In every episode, you’ll hear the story behind your favorite food writers, recipe developers, food bloggers, and cookbook authors. Plus, you learn about identifying good recipes and avoiding untested AI-created disasters.
My guest on this episode is Annie Fenn, MD, a physician, culinary instructor, cookbook author, and educator. She writes Brain Health Kitchen, a newsletter devoted to sharing the latest science on Alzheimer’s prevention and brain-healthy recipes that include neuroprotective ingredients and techniques.
Annie and I met online after I read her in-depth article about coffee. Because of the info she shared, I decided to break up with my Nespresso (it was hard, not going to lie) and switch to pour-over coffee. It’s been a great choice for me, not only for brain health but also for taste. I immensely enjoy my morning brew!
In the episode, Annie and I chat about so many interesting topics, including
* The importance of coffee and the best ways to drink it for optimal brain health.
* Why Annie pivoted from her Ob/Gyn practice to educating others on brain health and sharing recipes designed to prevent premature brain aging.
* Some tips on determining whether or not a social media influencer is giving good medical advice.
* Booze! What it does to the brain and how often to drink/not drink it.
* Her wellness retreats (spots are still open for Sardinia!) in Blue Zone countries, and what people can learn/take home with them.
* Plus, Annie shares her tried-and-true recipe for Crispy Tofu over Greens with Chili Sauce!
I highly recommend subscribing to Annie’s newsletter for up-to-date science and recipes that help you take care of your brain while enjoying delicious food!
