#BrainHealth #AlzheimersPrevention #healthyeatingtips

Diet plays a meaningful role in brain health, and certain foods are linked to a lower risk of Alzheimer’s disease and cognitive decline. While no single food can prevent Alzheimer’s, research supports dietary patterns (like the MIND diet, a blend of the Mediterranean and DASH diets) that are protective. Here are the most beneficial food groups:

🥬 Best Foods for Brain Health

Leafy green vegetables (spinach, kale, collard greens, Swiss chard)

Rich in folate, vitamin K, lutein, and antioxidants that protect neurons.

Other vegetables (especially cruciferous & colorful ones)

Broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, peppers — provide antioxidants and fiber.

Berries (blueberries, strawberries, blackberries)

High in flavonoids and polyphenols that improve memory and protect against oxidative stress.

Nuts (especially walnuts, almonds, hazelnuts)

Good sources of omega-3s, vitamin E, and healthy fats.

Fatty fish (salmon, sardines, trout, mackerel)

Rich in DHA (an omega-3 fatty acid crucial for brain cell membranes).

Olive oil (extra virgin)

Monounsaturated fats and polyphenols linked to lower inflammation and better vascular health.

Whole grains (oats, quinoa, brown rice, whole wheat)

Help maintain steady glucose for the brain.

Legumes (beans, lentils, chickpeas)

Plant protein, B vitamins, and fiber that support metabolic and brain health.

Poultry (chicken, turkey)

Lean protein option with less saturated fat than red meat.

Wine (optional, in moderation)

Small amounts of red wine (a few times a week) may be protective, likely due to resveratrol.
But avoiding alcohol entirely is also perfectly fine, especially if there are risks.

🚫 Foods to Limit (linked to higher Alzheimer’s risk)

Red meat & processed meats (sausage, bacon, hot dogs)

Butter & margarine (stick form)

Cheese (frequent, large portions)

Pastries, sweets, and refined carbs

Fried or fast foods
