Use MY Brain?

I recently paid attention to how much research is being done on the human brain. Probably has been for decades. No wonder because people have a lot of complaints about their heads and since the first “con-man” offered a magic pill, society has embraced the dream of instant relief. And scurry to some one else to solve their problems.
Now some conditions really need modern technology like tumors and injuries. But there may be a simpler solution for everyday people like me. That is simply to stop overloading our stomachs. Too much food washed down with liquids spiked with sugar and caffeine. Never mind which fats, carbohydrates, or proteins,just not sooooo much, not soooooo often. A few minutes of old fashioned relaxation or maybe old fashioned active sex would go a long way to soothing the troubled mind as well.
However brain studies are not helpful in that regard. Someone else, some other technology must step forward to make the big leap from aches in the head to fat in the belly. Studying the human brain requires new technology which I hasten to add is fabulous technology being designed by some very human brains. But there is a more immediate solution to my problems and that is for me to use my own great and wonderful brain to take a look at my own body. Wrinkled and sagging skin is not a pretty picture. Just the vision makes me cringe.
I am not up to that much thinking. I will go online and buy a bottle of that purplish, greenish, reddish stuff that has been proven in clinical studies to help others like me. Surely those actors can't all be wrong.
