Have you ever wondered if there were certain foods you could eat to boost brain power and prevent disease? In this episode, I go over 4 of the most beneficial foods that may boost memory and cognition and prevent disease like Alzheimer's, dementia, Parkinson's and age related cognitive decline.  These include coconut, walnuts, turmeric and green tea. Coconut acts as a secondary fuel source for the brain since it's high in MCTs which are converted into ketones. This is crucial for patients with AD as researchers believe the disease is a form of insulin resistance. Walnuts offer potent antioxidant effects, fighting against oxidative stress in the brain. Turmeric acts as a powerful anti-inflammatory which may reduce the risk of neuroinflammation, another risk factor for AD, PD and age related cognitive decline. Finally, green tea may act as a chelator for built up iron and copper in the brain - yet another risk factor that researchers are now discovering.
