The book will provide a comprehensive examination of how dietary and nutritional interventions can influence the management and progression of various neurological disorders, including Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, Obsessive-Compulsive disorder and Autism spectrum disorders.

The purpose of the book is to investigate the role of specific nutrients, dietary patterns, and phytochemicals in influencing the onset and symptoms of neurological disorders. The book will summarize the current research findings from preclinical and clinical studies on the efficacy of nutritional strategies and their potential therapeutic benefits. The book also highlights the existing challenges and limitations in the application of nutritional therapies for neurological conditions and suggests areas for further research. The book will offer actionable dietary recommendations and strategies for patients, caregivers, and healthcare professionals to integrate nutritional approaches into overall management plans for neurological disorders.

This book is intended for everyone who is involved with brain-related research or studies such as healthcare professionals, including neurologists, dietitians, and nutritionists, who are looking to integrate dietary strategies and nutritional therapies into the management of neurological disorders, individuals with neurological conditions, caregivers, and health-conscious readers interested in using diet and nutrition to support brain health and cognitive function.
