Well as a college student who went on a 2 month coco pebble binge (and only ate that because of sheer laziness), I didn't feel significant effects on brain power. But it does trash your body and leaves you feeling lethargic and lose motivation to actually do anything productive. I think the latter effects are just as dangerous as reduced "brain effectiveness". (this is just my experience, certainly not any scientifically proven study)

That's "reduced brain effectiveness" too.

Wait... loss of motivation is outside of your brain? This and other intriguing ideas make me want to sign up for your mailing list.
