Mediterranean Diet Can Lower Alzheimer’s Risk And Do A Whole Lot Besides

The Mediterranean diet is defined as a modern nutritional recommendation inspired by the traditional dietary patterns of poor coastal regions of southern Italy, Crete, and coastal Greece in the 1960s. It includes:
abundant plant foods,
fresh fruit as the typical daily dessert,
olive oil as the principal source of fat,
dairy products (principally cheese and yogurt),
fish and poultry consumed in low to moderate amounts,
zero to four eggs consumed weekly,
red meat consumed in low amounts, and
wine consumed in low to moderate amounts

Now we know that this nutritional therapy can be good for preventing:

Alzheimer’s Disease. The Mediterranean diet can help prevent brain damage linked to memory loss and strokes
This diet is also said to prevent stomach cancer
Added to this, the Mediterranean diet also can be an anti depressant since it improves the working of blood vessels, reduces the oxidative damage and decreases inflammation
