My work has focused on three evidence based brain healthy diets. These are Dale Bredesen’s Protocol, the MIND diet, and the Mediterranean diet. All of these diets have been studied in clinical trials. All have been shown to decrease the risk of Alzheimer’s and even improve brain health.

Research has been fast and furious once it was understood that the Western diet shrinks the brain beginning around age 40 years.

The connection between diet – brain health is becoming increasing clear. The need to move in the diet direction is becoming urgent as ultra-processed food is topping food consumption and, it negatively impacts gut microbiome and brain health leading to disease.
