Keep your brain sharp with a healthy diet

Readers of this blog will know that many degenerative diseases that mainstream medicine calls incurable can actually be prevented or even reversed with a diet high in nutrient dense vegetables and omega-3 fatty acids.  A new study on Alzheimer's supports this claim.

"According to new research just published in the online issue of Neurology, the medical journal of the American Academy of Neurology, those who eat foods rich in several vitamins and in omega 3 fatty acids are far less likely to have the brain shrinkage associated with Alzheimer's disease than people whose diets are not high in those nutrients.

What's more, people who eat foods loaded with omega 3 fatty acids (found in cold water fish like salmon and certain plant sources, including walnuts) and in vitamins C, D, E and the vitamin B (from fruits and vegetables) also have sharper cognitive abilities. The bottom line is that seniors who consume plenty of B,C and E vitamins as well as omega 3s score far better on mental thinking tests than people with diets low in those nutrients."

People who take responsibility for their health through smart eating and supplementation can significantly reduce their odds of getting sick late in life.  Eating nutrient dense meals (mostly fruits, vegetables, and nuts) can save you thousands of dollars by avoiding toxic medical drugs.  And best of all, you will feel great!
