The mind diet is a little different from other diets, because it doesn’t make promises like, losing 15 pounds in two weeks, and, clean the toxins from your body. Instead what it does claim is that it will dramatically lower your chances for getting Alzheimer’s Disease.
In a study from Rush University Medical Center in Chicago Illinois, researchers found that the MIND diet, a hybrid of the Mediterranean and DASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) diets cut people’s risk by approximately 53%.
The Mediterranean-DASH Intervention for Neurodegenerative Delay Mediterranean diet emphasizes ten brain healthy foods included in both the Mediterranean and DASH diets.
The diet consists of leafy greens, vegetables, berries, nuts, beans, whole grains, fish, poultry, olive oil and wine. At the same time, limiting things like red meats, butter and margarine, cheese, pastry and sweets, and fried or fast foods.
According to Kate Patton R.D. a registered dietitian with The Cleveland Clinic, it’s all about moderation. Even if you break the rules now and again it’s not the end of the world. The diet’s guidelines are extremely loose, and even people who didn’t strictly follow the diet, still reduced their risk of Alzheimer’s by 35%. Not bad huh?
I’m not sure what kind of success you will achieve in the weight loss department, but if you’ve had Alzheimer’s disease in your family history, maybe, this diet is for you.
At any rate, I believe, it’s worth a try.
