Here is another reason to change your eating habits. A recent study of 967 people in their early seventies demonstrated that those who followed a Mediterranean style diet lost less brain volume over a three year period than those who did not follow good eating habits.
The key elements of the brain sparing diet were a high intake of fruits, vegetables and legumes and a moderate intake of fish, nuts, whole grains and wine. The diet also had a low intake of red or processed meats.
