In this video Dr. David Perlmutter introduces his Grain Brain Whole Life Plan, building on his earlier best‑selling books Grain Brain (2013) and Brain Maker (2015). He explains how Grain Brain highlighted the harmful effects of gluten, refined carbohydrates, and sugar on overall and brain health, while Brain Maker presented emerging research on the gut microbiome’s influence on every aspect of health. The Whole Life Plan combines these insights with 35 years of clinical experience and the latest scientific findings to offer a comprehensive strategy for preventing chronic diseases such as coronary artery disease, diabetes, cancer, Alzheimer’s, and for achieving healthy weight control. The presentation is framed as an empowering guide that connects the dots between diet, microbiome, and long‑term health outcomes.

Hello, I'm Dr. David Perlmutter. In 2013, I published Grain Brain, emphasizing the powerfully detrimental role of gluten, carbohydrates, and sugar, both in terms of overall health and specifically brain health. Grain Brain was then published in 27 languages around the world and really moved the needle in terms of health on a global scale. In 2015, we published Brain Maker, and it became an immediate New York Times bestseller Focusing on the newly emerging science that reveals the powerful role of the 100 trillion organisms that live within each and every one of us in terms of every aspect of our health. Grain Brain and Brain Maker explained why. The Grain Brain Whole Life Plan now explains how, how to take full advantage of this newly emerging science so you can finally regain your health and become powerfully resistant to the ever-expanding list of health issues that plague plague modern society, including things like coronary artery disease, diabetes, cancer, and even Alzheimer's disease, and really so many others. It's an empowering guide that will connect the dots, finally allowing you to gain control over excessive weight. The Grain Brain Whole Life Plan, the latest scientific research, and my 35 years of practicing medicine opens the door for you to finally maximize Your health destiny.
