We are up against one problem: how can we continue to eat all of these foods that we know are bad for us and make us unhealthy? Isn’t there a magic pill so we can ignore our poor food choices and live in a fairytale world where fast food and sugar are GOOD for us?

Please, drug companies, help us be delusional!

Reducing inflammation levels without using drugs with adverse side effects will also reduce the risk for development of vascular disease. This will also reduce the risk of vascular dementia.

study in the Journal of Nutrition, Health and Aging, that involved over 16,00 people* aged 60 or above, found that the habitual use of fish oil supplements resulted in a 24% lower dementia risk among those people. That’s twice as good as NSAIDs.

*Should be 16,061 people.
