The rates of dementia differ greatly around the world, from the lowest rates in Africa, India, and South Asia, to the highest rates in Western Europe and especially North America. Is it all just genetics? Well, the incidence of dementia and Alzheimer’s disease is significantly lower for Africans in Nigeria than for African Americans in Indianapolis, for example—up to five times lower.

Alzheimer’s rates of Japanese-Americans living in the U.S. are closer to that of Americans than to Japanese. When people move from their homeland to the United States, Alzheimer’s rates can increase dramatically. Therefore, when Africans or Asians live in the United States and adopt a Western diet, their increase in Alzheimer’s risk suggests that it’s not genetics.

Unfortunately, one doesn’t have to move to the West to adopt a Western diet. The prevalence of dementia in Japan has shot up over the last few decades. Mechanisms to explain this in Japan include increases in cholesterol, saturated fat, and iron from increases in the consumption of animal products. Traditional diets are generally weighted toward vegetable products such as grains and away from animal products. But since 1960, the diet in Japan has changed from a more traditional rice-based diet to one with a preponderance of meat. From 1961 to 2008, meat and animal fat increased considerably, whereas the rice supply dropped. The dietary factor most strongly associated with the rise in Alzheimer’s disease in Japan was the increased consumption of animal fat.

The answer is very simple. Eat more plant food.

I'm not contesting that reducing meat intake would be healthy for a lot of us, but the comparison between US blacks and native Nigerians... I would like to see the actual numbers on that.
Because I'm thinking a lot of Nigerians don't get Alzheimer's because they die of something else at a relatively young age.

If I ever start showing signs of dementia I'll off myself instantly. I have seen what that shit does to both the patient and the loved ones and I don't wish it on anybody.
Worked in neurology for a while and had one of my favourite non-English language authors as a patient. Watched that brilliant mind that has written some amazing books fall apart and become no better than that of a 2-year-old.
Miss me, as the kids say, with that shit.

that's also wrong, but in an interesting way.

alzheimers is caused by a bacterial infection in the brain
http://advances.sciencemag.org/content/5/1/eaau3333.full
the link between blood sugar and alzheimers is due to these bacteria requiring sugar to survive. lower the serum blood sugar for long periods of time, and they stop reproducing or even die off reducing the risk of alzheimers. let your blood sugar stay high for long periods of time and these bacteria - if you have them - will reproduce and accelerate the advance of alzheimers.

>Traditional diets are generally weighted toward vegetable products such as grains and away from animal products
This is what vegantards ACTUALLY believe.

The modern western diet is not characterized by high meat consumption but by highly processed, high carb foods. High sugar. Frequent meal and snack times.

Traditional diets contain whole foods, both from animals and plants. They also contain things like preserved meats usually high in salt. Salt is one of the earliest and easiest methods of preservation.

But yeah keep drinking you smoothies
