The boost your BRAIN DIET

Eating for a younger brain isn’t just wishful thinking. Our method is based on the MIND diet, which has been shown to slow brain ageing by seven years and reduce the risk of Alzheimer’s by as much as 53%, according to a study*. The MIND Diet is a hybrid of two eating styles: DASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) and the Mediterranean Diet, which have decades of research supporting their physical and mental health benefits supporting them.

HOW IT WORKS

The foods are high in fibre, protein and good fats to fill you up, making it easier to control your intake (set at around 1,500 calories a day – an optional glass of wine on two days adds another 100 each). They’re also linked to better brain health, owing to vitamins and antioxidants, such as folate, vitamin E, carotenoids and flavonoids, which can protect nerve cells from damage and increase blood flow to the brain.
