Feed your mind with these 85 delicious recipes combining brain-healthy foods shown to reduce your risk of mental decline and Alzheimer's disease. Scientific studies, including the MIND research trials sponsored by the National Institute on Aging, have demonstrated that eating whole grains, leafy and other vegetables, berries, poultry, fish, nuts, beans, and olive oil in specific quantities can slow your cognitive decline and reduce your risk of developing dementia and Alzheimer's disease by up to 50% or more. Let The Feed Your Mind Diet Cookbook show you how easy and tasty a brain-healthy diet can be. The introduction summarizes current research recommendations about what foods to eat for brain health (and which ones to minimize), while the individual recipes clearly indicate how many servings of each of these foods it contains, making tracking and substitutions (if desired) simple.
