3.3.1. Energize it
The brain weight very low if we have it compared to the weight of the rest of our body. Although, the brain is almost 2 percent of the total body weight, it manages to absorb about 20 percent of our daily calorie intake. The brain can be seen as a busy consumer of calories that demands a continuous supply of glucose that is mainly obtained from carbohydrates such as fruits, vegetables, and grains. The brain predominantly uses other substances for fuel.
The frontal cortex which behaves as the Director of the brain is principally sensitive to decreasing glucose levels. As the glucose level drops it causes the symptom of confused thinking (Gibson, 2003). On the other hand, this fact does not suggest that we should frequently consume sugar to keep our brains functioning optimally. The reason for keeping away from sugar is that the high glucose levels slowly damage the cells of the body, including the brain cells (Montminy, 2000).
The brain reacts to excess food as if these were pathogenic factors (Dongshen, 1997), resulting into an immune response, which may cause cognitive deficits such as those associated with Alzheimer's disease. Furthermore, high blood sugar, coupled with a cognitive task, is associated with elevated cortisol. Cortisol in high doses, is a hormone that damage memory (Gibson, 2003).
1. Introduction: Highlights the brain as the ultimate asset for executives and sets the stage for exploring the impact of blood sugar on cognitive function.
2. Supportive Bibliography: Establishes the theoretical framework by discussing the impact of professional stress, brain operations, personality models, and cognitive activities.
3. Cognitive Activity: Examines memory retention, brain fitness, and essential nutritional feeding strategies like managing glycemic index and understanding fats.
4. Life style and Brain: Discusses the importance of Brain-derived nerve growth factor (BDNF) and how lifestyle factors, including companionship, can affect brain health.
5. Recommendations: Tips for Brain Fog Decrease: Offers practical guidance on diet, detoxification, stress management, exercise, and the strategic consumption of coffee to improve executive performance.

The book focuses on how blood sugar levels negatively impact the cognitive functions and decision-making capabilities of top executive managers.
The primary goal is to help managers maintain the health of their "ultimate asset"—their brain—through specific lifestyle practices and healthy blood sugar control.
Brain fog is described as a condition inhibiting clear thinking; the book explores it as a common, yet often overlooked, health issue that affects professional performance.
The author employs a review of existing literature and organizational theories, combined with personal observations and self-experimentation regarding nutrition and brain performance.
The main sections cover cognitive activity, the role of BDNF, nutritional recommendations (including fats and glycemic index), and practical advice on diet and stress management.
Key terms include decision-making, brain fitness, insulin, caffeine, cognitive function, and executive health.
The author explains that fats can lower the glycemic index of meals, and that choosing low glycemic load foods provides a steadier energy supply for the brain compared to high-sugar spikes.
The book suggests that coffee can be used to achieve "creative tension" if consumed in small, frequent amounts throughout the day, rather than in high doses.
