How can diet help reduce your risks of Dementia in later life

6/8/2020

0 Comments

​More and more studies are linking our diets to chronic disease that develops as we age, coronary heart disease, arthritis, type 2 diabetes, certain cancers, high blood pressure, poor bone health and Dementia.
 
Links have been found with 50% of dementia and poor diet, i.e. a diet low in nutrients and high in carbohydrates, sugars and processed foods.
 
This is good news, this gives us a way of lowering the risk of developing conditions like dementia by simply eating a healthy diet.
 
Main factors to think of:
  • Maintain a healthy weight
  • Diet rich in nutrients
  • Eat a rainbow – lots of fresh foods with a variety of colour
  • Oily fish/krill oil to feed the brain and the 2nd brain (your digestion)
  • Watch your blood pressure – Ireland has one of the highest rates of high blood pressure in the world
  • Watch for type 2 diabetes – very much diet related and linked to risk of dementia
  • Watch the alcohol – a little is ok but too much increases your risk – 2 bottles of wine in a week can increase your risk
  • Good night sleep – poor sleep increases inflammation in the brain, long-term this can increase risk
  • Exercise – no extremes, nothing that puts the body to extreme limits
 
This advice doesn’t just apply to dementia, I have see over and over again in my clinic people reverse their risks of chronic health problems by taking control of what they eat.  The first step is to realize it can make all the difference, the second is to decide it’s worth you doing it.  From there it’s easy, just a case of rethinking the way you look at food.
