Howdy all, apologies to my tens of fans out there, I was very busy at work, and now I've gone and jammed my finger, so typing is difficult.
Today, just a news brief on a topic that I will be spending much more time on.
Eating a Mediterranean-style diet, one that is rich in fruits and vegetables, whole grains, olive oil, and lean on meat, may help prevent the development of dementia in later life. The Mediterranean-style diet also emphasises daily physical activity, and moderate consumption of wine at meals. It is possible that this style of living promotes good vascular health, and many dementias are attributed to a decrease in vascular health. Therefore, keeping your cerebrovascular system (that's the blood flow to the brain) in good shape, you can help keep your mind sharp.
