An article published in Neurology, an American journal specializing in neurology, shows that a glass of wine a day may enhance memory and reduce the incidence of dementia. Moderate drinkers have an 85 percent lower rate of developing dementia (including Alzheimer’s disease, a primary degenerative brain disease that occurs in old age and the early years of life) compared to non-drinkers. Experts say that to prevent memory loss, you can often drink small amounts of alcohol over time to achieve results, but excessive long-term drinking can also lead to dementia. Eat more amaranth to prevent Alzheimer’s. The day before yesterday, the first hospital in Wuhan City, a scientific research results through the Wuhan Science and Technology Bureau expert group identification. When people think, the length of telomerase cells in the brain will be shortened, and when it is too short, it can lead to brain damage, brain atrophy, Alzheimer’s disease and other pathologies. Amaranthus can make telomerase cells in animals grow significantly, which provides a scientific basis for developing new drugs to slow down aging and prevent Alzheimer’s disease. Amaranth is rich in flavonoids, polysaccharides, vitamin C and other nutrients, and its natural efficacy is difficult to match with artificial pharmaceuticals. The public can eat more amaranth and it will also play a corresponding role in brain health. Walnuts: rich in unsaturated fatty acids – linoleic acid, which will be absorbed by the body and transformed into the constituent substances of brain cells. Sesame seeds: can nourish the kidneys and benefit the brain, nourish Yin and moisten dryness, more suitable for symptoms such as liver and kidney essence deficiency with dry mouth and tongue, intestinal dryness and constipation. Lotus seeds: can nourish the spleen and stomach, nourish the heart and tranquilize the mind, educate and strengthen the brain, and also benefit the kidneys and fix the essence. Peanut: has obvious anti-aging effect, more food can delay the decline of brain function, inhibit platelet adhesion, prevent thrombosis, lower cholesterol, prevent atherosclerosis. Jujube: It can nourish blood and calm the mind and nourish the heart and spleen. It is suitable for dementia patients with deficiency of heart, spleen and blood. Mulberry: It is especially suitable for dementia patients with deficiency of liver and kidney, heart and spleen Qi and blood. Cinnamon meat: suitable for patients with dementia with deficiency of both heart and spleen Qi and blood, with coldness and weakness, swollen face and feet. Grapes: Suitable for the prevention and treatment of premature senile dementia with Qi and Blood deficiency. Lychee: It is more suitable for the prevention and treatment of patients with deficiency of Qi and blood in the heart and spleen, as well as deficiency of stomach yin and irritability and thirst. Pine nuts: It is used for the prevention and treatment of senile dementia, especially for those with deficiency of liver and kidney essence accompanied by deficiency of lung dryness and yin, dry cough with little phlegm and intestinal dryness and constipation. Hawthorn: commonly used in the treatment of senile dementia with hyperlipidemia and diabetes, especially suitable for patients with phlegm clouding the brain and blood stagnation. Fish: Eating more fish is good for the prevention of senile dementia. Because the level of DHA unsaturated fatty acids in the brain of dementia patients is low, and fish, especially tuna, has a high content of this fatty acid. Other: foods such as mushrooms, eggs, soybeans, fungus, yams and sea cucumbers are all effective in preventing and treating progeria. The demand for protein in the elderly, for about 1 gram / (kg body weight – day), if the supply is insufficient, the body’s tissue cells, including brain cells rendezvous rapid aging. The quantity of protein is important, but the quality is also important, the ratio of amino acids should be complete, the content of lecithin should be rich, so as to benefit the metabolism of the brain, beneficial to the composition of neural tissue. Eggs are one of the best proteins and contain a lot of lecithin. 1-2 eggs/day for the elderly can meet the needs of the body; dairy and lean meat are rich in high-quality protein; beans and their products are rich in high-quality protein; beans and their products contain 40% high-quality protein and 1.64% lecithin. In addition, the elderly can benefit from the health of brain cells by taking fish in moderation, because fish contains important substances needed for brain nerve conduction.
