How can you tell about your brain without doing a scan? For many years Dr. Amen has been aware that most people will not be able to get their brains scanned, either because they are not near one of his clinics or because of the cost. Based on over 55,000 brain scans, Dr. Amen developed a wonderful set of questionnaires to help people see how their own brain functions. The questionnaires will only take about 25 minutes to complete and will help you understand the health of your brain and the type of weight issue you may have. There is also a “Bad Brain Habit Quiz” to help you know about how your day to day behavior affects the health of your brain. Plus, there is a series of questions that evaluate 5 different brain systems and depending on how you score, he gives you personalized suggestions on how to balance your specific brain. Of course, you should talk with your doctor, but this series of questionnaires will give you a great start to understanding your brain and specific ideas on what you need to do to make it healthy.
