According to the British newspaper "Mirror," nutrition expert Nihad Ali stated, "I have seen for myself the power that our food has to help protect against dementia as we age; some simple choices can help prevent dementia, and they truly make a difference."
**Berries**
We should all eat more berries, as they reduce the risk of dementia in some middle-aged individuals. Consuming a handful or two of berries daily is very important, whether by adding them to oatmeal or yogurt.
**Fish**
Fatty fish like salmon have strong effects on the brain and help maintain cells. Eating large amounts of fish in the diet is consistently linked to improved cognitive health in old age.
**Nuts**
Nuts are excellent for brain nutrition. Long-term consumption of nuts is key to enhancing cognitive health and combating dementia in older adults.
The term "dementia" is used to describe a group of symptoms that affect memory, thinking, and social abilities. Dementia occurs due to damage or loss of neuronal cells and their connections in the brain, and the symptoms depend on the affected area of the brain, varying from one patient to another.
