Not So Much A Naked Ape,
as a Knackered Ape

How sharp is your mind? How balanced is your mood? How consistent are your energy levels? How happy are you? And what, if anything, does all this have to do with what you eat? Patrick Holford thinks he has the answers.

Last year at the Institute of Optimum Nutrition we surveyed 22,000 UK citizens. Most were urban dwellers aged between 20 and 30. We found that:

76 per cent of people are often tired
58 per cent suffer from mood swings
52 per cent feel apathetic and unmotivated
50 per cent suffer from anxiety
47 per cent have difficulty sleeping
43 per cent have poor memories or struggle to concentrate
42 per cent suffer from depression.

Welcome to the 21st century. Despite immense improvements in standards of living modern man is not so much a naked ape, but a knackered ape. According to Patrick Holford though, all is not lost. Nutrition is the key!
