Overfed But Undernourished
Greetings, my name is Scott Engle and I'm a lifelong health & fitness enthusiast. I learned that food has great power... to do both harm or good.
Overfed But Undernourished was created to raise awareness about the health hazards in our food, and to share information about selecting the safest, most nutritious foods and beverages available. I began exploring natural remedies after developing a series of health challenges. I discovered that the food industry has become quite industrialized and doesn't operate anything like what most of us wou
Even small amounts of toxic ingredients in skin products can add up and contribute to endocrine disorders, heart disease, cancer, and a range of other illnesses.
In a recent episode of The Doctor’s Farmacy, I spoke to Dr. Cindy Geyer about why it’s important to take a good look at what we put on our skin. We also discussed the dangers of ingredients such as parabens and phthalates, which can disrupt hormones, as well as how I detox my body, where to find out how safe your favorite products are, and much more.

Sound advice.
What else can we do to improve our brain?
First off, you want to eat real food. When I say real food, I mean whole, organic, fresh, local, and unprocessed food. If it has a label or a barcode or has ingredients you can’t pronounce, wouldn’t find in your pantry, or that your great-grandmother wouldn’t recognize, you should probably avoid it. Foods like that tend to live in the middle aisles of the grocery store, so shop the periphery where the single-ingredient foods live (like meat, fruit, and veggies).
You also need to eat colorful plants. Focus on eating lots of colorful fruits and vegetables that are naturally loaded with brain-boosting phytonutrients. The deep reds, yellows, oranges, greens, and blues mean these foods contain powerful anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, detoxifying, energy-boosting, and brain-powering molecules. Enjoy an array of colorful plant foods like blueberries and dark leafy greens like kale, Swiss chard, spinach, watercress, and arugula.
And don’t fear fat! Eating plenty of healthy fats helps support brain cell communication, neuron function, and cellular integrity. In fact, around sixty percent of your brain is made up of DHA–an omega-3 fat that you get from algae and fish. Make sure you include a couple servings of healthy fat per meal—foods like avocados, MCT oil, wild-caught salmon, nuts, and seeds are brain food. My brain worked pretty well before, but embracing fat pushed my mental clarity through the roof.
Make sure to always include protein. Quality is key. We need about 30 grams of protein per meal to build muscle. When you lose muscle, you age faster and your brain takes a huge hit! (And, as you age, your need for protein increases.) If you consume animal protein, aim for quality protein, like grass-fed meat, pasture-raised eggs, and wild-caught fish or if you prefer plant-based protein, always opt for organic and non-GMO nuts, seeds, legumes, and rice, and try to mix it up at each meal (oh and always balance your plant-based protein with healthy fats).
If you feel like you’ve tried everything, consider working with a Functional Medicine practitioner to further explore what could be at the root of your brain fog.
