166. The MIND Diet- The #1 Eating Pattern for Alzheimer’s & Dementia Prevention

Can what you eat actually lower your risk of dementia? In this episode, Dr. Lisa Oldson breaks down the MIND diet, the eating pattern designed specifically to protect your brain. She'll share what the research really shows about its effect on dementia and Alzheimer's risk. She'll also cover important new data on how ultra-processed foods and alcohol affect your brain health, plus why this same pattern of eating is just as helpful for weight loss as other proven healthy diets. Dr. Lisa will leave you with her top 10 nutrition changes you can start today to lower your risk. (Note: This episode focuses on nutrition; other lifestyle factors for dementia prevention will be discussed in a future episode.)Grab the free worksheet that goes with episode 165: https://www.smartweightlosscoaching.com/Smart-weight-loss-coaching-podcast-worksheet-165Thanks for listening!
