The 4 Horsemen of the Mental Health Apocalypse

Alzheimer’s and dementia can be largely prevented through certain lifestyle choices. Key factors include brain fats, B vitamins, sugar, and antioxidants. Omega-3 and phospholipids are essential brain fats, while B vitamins, particularly B6, B12, and folate, are vital. Excessive sugar can lead to insulin resistance and poor brain glucose supply. Consuming antioxidants, found in brightly colored foods, can lower dementia risk. Recommended actions involve supplementing Omega-3, vitamin D, B6, B12, folate, and vitamin C, and eating more colorful foods.
