What a great talk! He makes it very simple, to summarize do these for reducing risk of Alzheimer's and increase well being:<br><br>1. Eat colorful fruits and veggies daily: blueberries, grapes, broccoli etc for better memory. <br><br>2. Take Vitamin E to eliminate free radicals from brain but not just from pills but from foods like nuts / seeds (just a few), spinach, mangoes etc. <br><br>3. Reduce trans-fat from foods like donuts, pastries; and saturated fats like from Bacon, meat, cheese/dairy. <br><br>4. Reduce metals like iron, copper. Do not use iron skillets etc. <br><br>4. Exercise: nothing crazy, just do brisk walk three times a week, up to 40 minutes each time. <br><br>Do all of the above and one can reduce the risk of Alzheimer's by 80% even if you have the gene.

Very good information, but do NOT underestimate the importance of sleep and stress. Not enough sleep and too much stress literally kills brain cells. And so do diet soda.

I am from india. Our food was like you describe it. Our snacks were made from jaggery and nuts. And then Pepsi and coke came in, lays chips became common. We forgot yoga. There’s a lot of good practices that should be brought back- which includes what to eat and when to eat.

Not only was this some of the best content I’ve ever read on dementia, but he is an outstanding speaker. I cried at the end. I’m so grateful for what he helped accomplish with terminating the food pyramid.
