Research conducted by foreign scientists has shown that a properly selected diet helps maintain attention and memory in old age.
In particular, the MIND diet can slow down the aging process of the brain. It also protects against cognitive impairment in old age.
The results of the study by the University of Cincinnati staff were published in the scientific journal Neurology.
MIND diet
This is an abbreviation that translates from English as the Mediterranean and DASH diet for the prevention of neurodegenerative disorders.
What to include in your diet
Of the vegetables, it is recommended to include spinach, cabbage and legumes in the diet.
There is also a need for whole grains and olive oil.
Be sure to include poultry and fish, as well as fruits, nuts and berries.
Restrictions
It is important to limit the consumption of red meat and sweets.
Cheese, butter and fried foods should be consumed in minimal quantities.
According to the study, MIND diet adherents demonstrated better cognitive performance as they aged.
Scientists have yet to determine exactly how this diet affects the well-being of men and women.
