Yet more bragging rights are in for the Mediterranean diet, long considered to be one of the healthiest in the world.
A new study published Monday in the BMJ journal Gut found that eating the Mediterranean diet for just one year altered the microbiome of elderly people in ways that improved brain function and would aid in longevity.The study found the diet can inhibit production of inflammatory chemicals that can lead to loss of cognitive function, and prevent the development of chronic diseases such as diabetes, cancer and atherosclerosis.
The study is part of a larger randomized controlled trial of 1,200 people called the European Project on Nutrition in Elderly People or NU-AGE that began in 2012. Previous publications from the ongoing study found those who followed the diet closely had improved episodic memory and overall cognitive ability. Higher adherence to the diet also reduced the rate of bone loss in people with osteoporosis and improved blood pressure and arterial stiffness.

Just do it ! Is tasty 😋!
No it didn’t.
Did they cut back on the meat and the portion sizes, that to me seems the biggest difference between how we eat and how they eat.

We had a German Study that showed no significant Differences eatin Meditaranian, German or fast food. It all depends on a persons intake, selfcare and exercise.
We must help you to eat fruits and vegetables.🙂🤗😊
I'm not an adult but I do have about the same knowledge as them and the mental state of my mind is the same to a 68 year old man.
I been on it for 6 months and it’s pretty good , requires cooking , and learning new recipes
Vote Bernie Sanders.
Please watch 😂
Duh 😒
It's a good thing Trump will stick to the Dumpster Diet--a diet that relies on shoveling fatty, greasy food down one's gullet until a lake of drool forms underneath. It definitely won't improve brain function.
Alex_Dix Esp organic. Glyphosate kills.
👏👏👏
I'm curious to see if there would be any noticeable differences in a person's health between a vegan and standard Mediterranean diet since it's already fairly fruit and vegetable heavy.

Good to know since Mike Bloomberg thinks elderly people w/ cancer shouldn't get any help and die.
It just looks like a balanced diet to me: fruit and vegies, carbs, fibre and go easy on the red meat.
Is Mediterranean diet a way to prevent Alzheimer's disease
Seems legit
Heard it before, one tried it before, it's a commercial purpose only, just like any previous dietary.
'A new study'....hardly. More recycled crap that everyone rotates thru over a 24 month cycle....happily reported on as if it is news by the nations news organizations AKA brainwashing services
CuteSeaCreature interesting!!
What about McDonald's and Burger King?
That is awesome. Now PLEASE stop shoving the flu shot down their throats. It causes Alzheimer’s.
Funny. Most if not all of those foods are grown in America🤔
I'm not vegan but I practice eating healthy.
Seafoods , vegetables , omega3 olive oil.
Uh oh. It’s CNN saying this be careful. 50% chance it’s a lie.
