Ah, to be lounging by the wine dark sea, eating olives and goat cheese, and drinking retsina. I remember those days well - yes, I really do: I spent many years living in that part of the world. So perhaps it is not so strange I remember - this new study supports the theory that a Mediterranean diet protects against Alzheimer's disease. I can't think of a better way not to get it!

I juice my apples pips and all. Now comes a study which shows apple juice is protective against memory loss. "We anticipate that the day may come when foods like apples, apple juice and other apple products are recommended along with the most popular Alzheimer's medications," says Thomas Shea, Ph.D., director of the UML Center for Cellular Neurobiology and Neurodegeneration Research. |
