Do you have a loved one suffering from dementia, and have you started noticing a few worrying signs of it in yourself? Maybe it’s not you, but others around you who have noticed…and that’s concerning you more than you want to admit.   Either way, you know you want to stay as mentally sharp and alert as you can, for as long as possible. So do we just sit and wait, hoping that our minds won’t fail too quickly and badly? Or is there something we can to do to slow down or prevent rapid mental decline, by changing the foods on our plates?   Let’s talk about this. In this episode, we’ll see how eating differently – specifically adding in more fiber-rich plant-based foods to our meals – can help build a stronger, more mentally active brain and even cut dementia risk. I want to share some fascinating research that has emerged linking the fiber content of our diets and the risk of dementia. So if you want to stay mentally sharp and cognitively active for longer, join me in this episode. Let’s go!
