A recent university study showed a link to the presence of vitamin B, C, D, and E and Omega 3 fatty acids and better overall brain health. This was a study conducted on older Americans, so they also found a stronger link between higher trans fats and bad brain health and cognitive function.
Really, eating a diet of fruits, vegetables, and fish is good for you? Seems I may have heard that before, like a zillion times. More importantly, we can now add brain and mental health problems to the list of things that eating a diet of rich, fatty, fried foods is linked to.
So lets take a look at the score board.
“Bad Diet” has garnered:
-Obesity
-Inflammatory disorders
-Coronary disorders
-Poor brain health
-Poor mental health
But, they taste so good! Good thing we have drugs for all that stuff.
“Good Diet” has collected:
-Active life
-Good overall health
-Good mental function
But, you get to miss-out on all those fun drug side effects and drug interactions that people are dying for.!
My question really comes down to: Can anyone explain why cleaning up your diet is not this year's resolution?
