Dementia
- When we get older and start to lose our memory we lose the words on the left side of a glossary entry long before we lose the meaning on the right.
"Here’s a list of foods linked to increased rates of Alzheimer’s disease: Processed cheeses, including American cheese, mozzarella sticks, Cheez Whiz and Laughing Cow. These foods build up proteins in the body that have been associated with Alzheimer’s. Processed meats, such as bacon, smoked turkey from the deli counter and ham. Smoked meats like these contain nitrosamines, which cause the liver to produce fats that are toxic to the brain. Beer. Most beers contain nitrites, which have been linked to Alzheimer’s. White foods, including pasta, cakes, white sugar, white rice and white bread. Consuming these causes a spike in insulin production and sends toxins to the brain. Microwave popcorn contains diacetyl, a chemical that may increase amyloid plaques in the brain. Research has linked a buildup of amyloid plaques to Alzheimer’s disease."
