About this listen

Growing older is inevitable, but aging can be prevented, even reversed—but only when you upgrade your brain, using both ancient and modern science, to create psychosomatic health.

A healthy brain is the foundation for a healthier and more fulfilling life, and in Grow A New Brain, modern shamanic practitioner Alberto Villoldo reveals research and introduces protocols for listeners to improve their brain function, right now. It combines ancient and modern science to eliminate old senescent cells, detoxify your brain and body, reduce inflammation, increase the growth of brain cells that support neuroplasticity, and more. Readers will learn:

  • How to turn your kitchen into a shaman’s laboratory to make your own probiotics that repair that gut and produce neurotransmitters that balance the brain.
  • How to use shamanic meditative techniques to switch on genes for health and turn off genes for illness and disease, and drawing on the science of epigenetics how to avoid being trapped in the destiny inherent in your genetic coding
  • How to reverse damage to the brain caused by free radicals and restore the functioning of our mitochondria (or power centers) in our cells.
  • How to increase the amount of BDNF (brain-derived neurotrophic factor) you produce, allowing you to grow new brain cells (neurogenesis) that will support neuroplasticity.

Critic Reviews

“A revolutionary guide to upgrading your brain so you can change your mind to create joy and extraordinary health. Alberto reveals the secret power plants employed by the sages of Machu Picchu and the Amazon rainforest that help their brain-span equal their lifespan! As a medical anthropologist he discovered that ancient Americans enjoyed a lifespan free from cancer, heart disease, and dementia. In this book he shares the neuro-nutrients available today that can protect your brain and help you experience Oneness and the sacred! A masterful blend of Western science and the wisdom of the ancient American sages.”—Mark Hyman MD, author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Young Forever, and founder of the Cleveland Clinic Center for Functional Medicine

“Dr. Alberto Villoldo is a psychologist and medical anthropologist who weaves together Indigenous healing methods with scientifically grounded strategies. In his new book, Dr. Villoldo teaches how to turn your kitchen into a shaman's laboratory in a way that can repair the gut and help rebalance the brain. Ultimately, he guides us to unearth the extraordinary and unmet potential that dwells in the brain by utilizing ancient wisdom modernized for our busy lives. I highly recommend that you allow yourself, as I have, to be taken into Dr. Villoldo's remarkable healing system.”—Sara Szal Gottfried MD, New York Times bestselling author of The Hormone Cure and Director of Precision Medicine, Marcus Institute of Integrative Health

“More relevant than ever, through storytelling and innate wisdom, Alberto guides us how to heal our brains and thrive through overcoming limiting beliefs, feeding our “brains” with the right nutrients and energy while using cutting edge science to become our full potential.”—Anna Bjurstam, health and wellness pioneer
