    As an ethical vegan, who also educated myself about nutrition, I only consume a wholefood plant based diet, and eat flax and chia seeds, but I'm aware that Algae oil supplements are available in lieu of fish. Plus I have inherited a photographic memory, which is still fine. And yes sleep is important too. But avoiding stress is also important, as so many employers stress out the employees, and that is when people eat junk food.

That there are representatives of experiences held in our brains is wonderful and where no sensory information, that our brains create sensory experience. Dreams, memories of feeling. ❤

  • @308dad8
    @308dad8 2 года назад +15

    OK we’re getting somewhere. I have some follow up questions for you. 1) can we be sure those “improved memory scores” were the result of eating fruit or the result of not being malnourished? 2) can you cite actual studies or just say that “studies show” because you’re reading a script? My Grandmother ate what the government recommended and still got Alzheimer’s even though she worked everyday, even though she was really smart she even forgot me, one of her closest grandkids. She had no idea who I was. She wasn’t a smoker or drinker so you can’t blame that and she wasn’t lazy So lifestyle is completely eliminated from causation. Maybe the grains and sugar whether refined or carbohydrates are to blame? Some have speculated that Alzheimer’s is caused by oxidation in our brains and not cooking in aluminum, copper or iron cookware would’ve prevented this, would it have? They claim stainless steel would’ve prevented it but you have a proven source of dangerous chromium in stainless steel, so no it’s no better. So cook on glass only? Well it’s a thought but glass can be troublesome too from certain heavy metals used to give glass its colors.

It doesn’t mean that if you are not at risk of getting a condition you can’t suffer from it. For example taking Alcohol puts at risk of get Alzheimer’s disease, this doesn’t mean that someone can’t suffer from the disease if she doesn’t take Alcohol neither does it mean that everyone taking Alcohol will suffer from the disease
