Phoenix, AZ -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/24/2014 -- Voice America Talk Radio Network, Internet broadcasting pioneer, producing and syndicating online audio and video, today announced that nationally acclaimed author, renowned neurologist Dr. David Perlmutter will join Jennifer Wren Tolo, host of Spread Your Wings and Fly into Health on the VoiceAmerica Health and Wellness Channel (http://www.voiceamerica.com) Tuesday, November 25, at 8 a.m. Pacific Time.

Dr. David Perlmutter will discuss his book, Grain Brain – The Surprising Truth About Wheat, Carbs, and Sugar – Your Brain’s Silent Killers. A renowned neurologist, David Perlmutter, MD, FACN, ABIHM, blows the lid off a topic that’s been buried in medical literature for far too long: carbs are destroying your brain! And not just unhealthy carbs -- but even “healthy” ones like whole grains can cause dementia, ADHD, anxiety, chronic headaches, depression, and much more.

Dr. Perlmutter explains what happens when the brain encounters common ingredients in your daily bread and fruit bowls, why your brain thrives on fat and cholesterol, and how you can spur the growth of new brain cells at any age. He offers an in-depth look at how we can take control of our “smart genes” through specific dietary choices and lifestyle habits, demonstrating how to remedy our most feared maladies without drugs.

Dr. David Perlmutter is a board-certified neurologist and Fellow of the American College of Nutrition. He received his MD degree from the University Of Miami School Of Medicine, where he was awarded the Leonard G. Rowntree Research Award for best research by a medical student. After completing residency training in neurology, also at the University of Miami, Dr. Perlmutter entered private practice in Naples, Florida.

Dr. Perlmutter serves as an associate professor at the University Of Miami School Of Medicine. Dr. Perlmutter is a frequent lecturer at symposia sponsored by such medical institutions as Harvard University, the University of Arizona, Scipps Institute, New York University, and Columbia University. He has contributed extensively to the world medical literature with publications appearing in the Journal of Neurosurgery, the Southern Medical Journal, Journal of Applied Nutrition, and Archives of Neurology. He is the author of many books, including The Better Brian Book, Raise a Smarter Child by Kindergarten, Power Up Your Brain: The Neuroscience of Enlightenment, and the # 1 New York Times bestseller, Grain Brain – The Surprising Truth About Wheat, Carbs, and Sugar – Your Brain’s Silent Killers. Dr. Perlmutter is recognized internationally as a leader in the field of nutritional influences in neurological disorders. He was the recipient of the National Nutritional Foods Association Clinician of the Year Award, and in 2010 he was awarded the Humanitarian of the Year award from the American College of Nutrition.
