There’s another spice that may be useful for brain health. See my video Saffron for the Treatment of Alzheimer’s (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/saffron-for-the-treatment-of-alzheimers/). 

What about coconut oil? See Does Coconut Oil Cure Alzheimer’s? (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/does-coconut-oil-cure-alzheimers/) In terms of preventing cognitive decline in the first place, check out my video How to Slow Brain Aging By Two Years (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/how-to-slow-brain-aging-by-two-years/).

I’ve previously raised the issue of plant-based diets and dementia in Alzheimer’s Disease: Grain Brain or Meathead? (http://nutritionfacts.org/video/alzheimers-disease-grain-brain-or-meathead/)
