Foods That Fight Alzheimer’s

Researchers are finding many links between diet and dementia, and there is evidence that some foods are powerful allies in the battle against Alzheimer’s. Let us have a look at those food products.

1. Fish, especially oily fish like salmon, mackerel, herring, and sardines, are rich in omega-3 fatty acids and should be eaten at least three times per week.

2. Eggs; they are considered a good dietary source of choline-a component of lecithin. They are also a good source of iron, vitamin B12 and other B vitamins, an excellent source of protein, and very easy to eat and digest.

3. Wheat germ and whole grains; they are high in lecithin and choline, carbohydrate, vitamin E, B vitamins, and numerous minerals help forestall Alzheimer’s. Whole-grain breads are a popular and readily available item to add to anyone’s diet.

4. Soy: Soy products are rich in choline and provide protein, carbohydrate, calcium, and fiber. They are a good source of folic acid-also known as folate-and are known to lower blood levels of homocysteine.
