chaotic, no, I didn't speak about diet with my practitioners, that was just from the Amen website. I try to include things in my diet high in omega 3s for reasons of blood pressure and cholesterol (they help if you are low on the "good" cholesterol). Flax seed oil is very high in omega 3s and a good substitute for fish oil. I don't take flax seed or fish oil, but I try to eat salmon once a week and foods high in flax, such as certains muffins, etc. Also, the "Berries Go-Mega" fruit juice drink from Odwalla is very high in plant-based omegas; it contains 720 mg flax seed omegas. (It's also kind of pricy.) That is one of the highest sources I have found besides drinking the pure oil (mixed with some juice of course!).

I think I would do well on a high protein low carbs diet. I really like high protein foods, and carbs tend to make me blimp out. I have tried in the last couple of years to eat more red meat as I am chronically anemic and don't do well on iron supplements. My doctor once said, "eat more meat!" (for gosh sake).

I wish I had printed out the diet recommendations for the different types of brain problems from the Amen website. You can only get to it from the results of your test, so I would have to pay money again to get to that page. One thing that makes me suspicious of the somewhat quirky Amen is that he sells all these nutritional supplements and vitamins on his website. So I think there's a significant conflict of interest there on what his recommendations are. My mom was watching those Amen shows on PBS also, and was interested. She said he was making an appearance locally and she would have been interested to go hear him speak but it cost $75. Again, something that makes me suspicious. He has quite an empire going.
