Synopsis

Your Awesome Brain is the newest award-winning book in Dr. Edwin Lee’s best-selling series of children’s books on health. The “time machine” is always a favorite section in the book, where it shows what happens to your body and brain after 10, 20 and 30 years of not following the three secrets to a healthier, brighter brain. With Your Awesome Brain, children quickly understand why sugar is bad for the brain. They’ll also learn the warning signs of a stroke, what causes it, and what to do when someone is experiencing one. Plus, because traumatic brain injuries are on the rise (especially in youth football) Your Awesome Brain explains the dangers and what to do. “I treat adult patients every day with problems they most probably could have prevented,” explains Dr. Edwin Lee, “had they received better, age-appropriate medical advice as children. To bridge that gap, I created this series of books to teach kids about the health secrets that adults wish someone had told them when they were young. After all, instead of merely fixing unhealthy adults, isn’t it better to raise healthier children?” There is no other children’s book that comes close to teaching as much about optimal brain health (while being entertaining). And, although this book is written for elementary-age readers, adults also learn from it. The best-selling Your Amazing Heart: Dr. Lee’s Health Secrets (Book One) is also available on Amazon.

About this title

About the Author

Dr. Edwin Lee is an author and international speaker who - thanks in part to his groundbreaking insight in his field, and his many significant presentations at major medical conferences around the world - is a respected proponent and authority on hormonal balance and wellness, and a leader in defining the future of regenerative and functional medicine. He is board certified in Internal Medicine, Endocrinology, Diabetes and Metabolism, and has completed special courses in Regenerative and Functional Medicine. And, he is the assistant professor of Internal Medicine at the University of Central Florida College of Medicine. Dr. Lee founded the Institute for Hormonal Balance in 2008. His driving purpose for opening the Institute was being able to focus on prevention of diseases, rather than just treating the impact of diseases - that in many cases could have been prevented. Hormonal balance, with bioidentical or natural hormones, is the cornerstone for keeping the body and mind healthy. The Institute for Hormonal Balance has a holistic approach to integrating the best of western and eastern medicine, thereby improving the mind, body and soul so that one can heal naturally. Dr. Lee graduated from Medical College of Pennsylvania, completed three years of Internal Medicine residency and then completed two fellowships - in Critical Care Medicine and in Endocrinology and Metabolism - at the University of Pittsburgh. He also served as the Team Endocrinologist for the Cleveland Indians during their spring training in Florida. In addition to writing his books - Your Awesome Brain; Your Amazing Heart; Feel Good Look Younger: Reversing Tiredness Through Hormonal Balance; and Your Best Investment: Secrets to a Healthy Body and Mind - Dr. Lee has published many articles on internal medicine and on endocrinology. He was also an author in the fourth edition of Textbook of Critical Care.
