TRUE

Good news – what you eat could lower your risk of developing dementia.

Mediterranean diets are traditionally high in fruits, vegetables, legumes and cereals, with moderate consumption of oily fish and dairy, while being low in meat, sugar and saturated fat. Most fat in this type of diet comes from olive oil, and alcohol is consumed in moderation with meals.

“Inflammation in the brain is associated with Alzheimer’s disease, and there are signs that following this diet could reduce such chemical inflammation,” says Dr Pickett. “Recent research has also suggested that the low levels of cholesterol in this diet may be linked with better memory.”

FALSE

A link was first suggested in 1965, after researchers found that rabbits injected with an extremely high dosage of aluminium developed twisted fibres of a protein, known as tau tangles, in their brains – a symptom of dementia.

Since this study, researchers across the world have investigated the relationship between aluminium and dementia, but no evidence has been found that the metal contributes in any way – or that you should avoid aluminium kitchenware. Although there is increasing evidence of a link between brain injuries – which may be caused by anything from car crashes to repeatedly heading footballs – and dementia, the short answer is we just don’t know enough about this area yet.
