According to Altzeimer's association, a study of elderly women showed that those who ate the most green, leafy and cruciferous vegetables . . . were one to two years younger in mental function than women who ate few of these vegetables.

Domenico Pratico, an associate professor of pharmacology in Temple's School of Medicine, had previously found a diet rich in methionine -- an amino acid typically found in red meat, fish, beans, eggs, garlic, lentils, onions, yogurt and seeds -- could increase the risk of developing Alzheimer's Disease.

Another study by Domenico Pratico demonstrated that amino-heavy methionine diet is even worse - resulting in less amyloid plaques in the brain.

Other advices include de-fating your diet and staying green and fresh
