Do you also love the Mediterranean cuisine? Then I have good news for you. A Mediterranean diet slows down the aging process of your brains.* This process in which you lose brain cells, your brains shrinks and the risk of Alzheimer's disease increases, can be delayed by five years. Just by following these nutritional guidelines:
Eat lots of:
- fruit
- vegetables.
- nuts and seeds
- monounsaturated fatty acids such as in olive oil
Be moderate with:
- saturated fatty acids such as in dairy products
- fish and poultry
- wine
Use very little:
- red meat
- eggs
Healthy and tasty food from the Spanish, Italian, Moroccan and Greek cuisine. Nice!
