Strategies to Reduce the Risk of Dementia for Everyone

What We Eat

Medical experts often discuss the “typical American diet,” characterized by frequent consumption of burgers, fries, and soda. This diet involves snacking on highly processed foods filled with hard-to-pronounce chemicals while lacking in fresh fruits and vegetables and heavy on red meats. Despite the consensus that this diet is detrimental to health, billions of dollars are spent annually on fast foods rich in animal fats, sugar, refined flour, chemical additives, and salt. The primary question for most people is what you're willing to give up to improve your health.
