Better Brain Food: Eat to Cheat Dementia and Cognitvie Decline

2017 | Food & Drink

With dementia on the rise, Ngaire Hobbins explains how we can eat to cheat dementia and cognitive decline in her new book Better Brain Food.In the UK 850,000 people suffer from dementia, and it is on the rise; on average we are living 20 years longer than our grandparents, increasing the likelihood that we will develop dementia at some stage in our lives. With lifelines increasing, looking after our brains is more important than ever and in recent years, a lot of research has been undertaken so we can understand what food and lifestyle changes help to promote brain health and the slow decline of dementia. In Better Brain Food, dietician Ngaire Hobbins explains that in her experience, many elderly patients' cognitive decline could have been mitigated if they had eaten better 3 or 5 years prior. There is something we can do and, as always, prevention is key for people in their 40s, 50s, 60s and beyond. Based on sound scientific research, Better Brain Food is the up-to-date guide to eating for brain health and avoiding decline.

Covering kitchen staples that boost brain health and quick-meal tricks, Ngaire includes 70 nutritious and achievable recipes from Michelle Crawford which are designed to keep your brain healthy at the same time as satisfying your taste buds. Michelle's recipes are also designed for individuals, couples and families so you can cook mindfully in every situation. Cook for one or two with delicious recipes like Michelle's Red potato and ricotta pancake with smoked salmon and quick pickled radish; power yourself up with quick dishes like Spiced lamb cutlets with lemony chickpea and tomato salad and Pan-fried fish with butter, peas, leek, lemon and almonds; enjoy a fresh, stress-free salad of Red cabbage, pea, mint and feta salad with poppy; fill yourself up with a hearty meal of Pumpkin, miso and adzuki bean stew; whip up a smart Indian spiced lentil and tomato tadka soup; dunk your carrot batons into some Macadamia and cauliflower hummus; and treat yourself to a slice of Fig and apricot tart with cardamom maple cream.Better Brain Food is a delicious, must-have book for everyone who's looking to live a long, healthy life.
