Guest guest Posted November 16, 2005 Report Share Posted November 16, 2005 Eating Well for a Healthy MindThere is growing evidence that chronic low-grade inflammation contributes to the development of many diseases, including Alzheimer's, and diet can be an important factor in addressing potential problems. The following are healthy ways to influence inflammation through diet: Choose foods rich in omega-3s, including wild Alaskan salmon, sardines, freshly ground flaxseed and walnuts Incorporate fresh, organic fruits and vegetables in your meals Reduce your intake of polyunsaturated vegetable oils (such as sunflower, corn and safflower oils), replacing them instead with extra-virgin olive oil Use healing spices in your cooking: turmeric, ginger and red pepper can add zing to meals, and all are natural anti-inflammatories -- Diana Gonzalez Nothing wastes more energy than worrying - the longer a problem is carried, the heavier it gets. Don't take things too seriously - live a life of serenity, not a life of regrets. -Unknown Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
