nswer: Dear Joshua, As
you may have recently
read, a Columbia Uni-
versity Medical Center study of
2000+ New Yorkers suggests that
adherence to a so-called, "Medi-
terranean" diet, may significantly
reduce the risk of developing
Alzheimer's Disease.

4-- A Mediterranean diet, typi-
cally, consists of fish, fruits,
nuts, vegetables, cereal
grains, legumes, mono-
unsaturated fats such as
those found in olive oil,
and low to moderate con-
sumption of red wine,
but is notably low in red
meat and dairy products.

Marathon Man 30

Detroiter guts out historic Boston race.

Prior to the Columbia
University study, the
benefits of a Mediterranean
diet had been primarily associated
with good heart health – thought
by some to be attributable to the
naturally lower level of saturated
fat found in the Mediterranean diet
(i.e., when compared to a typical
American diet).

Ann Arbor

Other very recent research (at
MIT) suggests that omega-3 fatty
acids (found in the Mediterranean
diet) may have an important role
to play in delaying the cognitive
decline brought on by Alzheimer's.
I hope you find this helpful.
