The Brain: Food and Novelty. Why We Crave New and Tasty Things

Humanity is more immersed than ever in various obsessive ideas and beliefs, such as the cult of productivity and the drive for healthy eating. In this series of audiobooks, Doctor of Biological Sciences and professor Vyacheslav Dubynin examines the main manias of modern times and explains them in terms of how the brain functions.

The first audiobook, “Food and Novelty,” is devoted to analyzing issues related to uncontrolled food consumption, the pursuit of an ideal figure, food allergies, fear of the unknown, and the constant desire for new knowledge. Relying on modern scientific data, Professor Dubynin shows how these obsessions influence the work of our brain.

From this audiobook you can learn:
— why we are so attracted to social networks;
— how food becomes more appealing;
— why we can’t stand boredom and silence;
— the reasons why people with normal weight try to lose weight;
— how lies affect the brain.
