Mind diet linked to better cognitive performance

Nutrition science, sigh. But here&#x27;s the diet:<p>The MIND diet recommends:[9]<p>Whole grains: three or more servings a day<p>Other vegetables: at least one a day<p>Wine: one glass a day<p>Green leafy vegetables (like spinach and salad greens): at least six servings a week<p>Nuts: five servings a week<p>Beans: at least three servings a week<p>Berries: two or more servings a week<p>Poultry (like chicken or turkey): two times a week<p>Fish: once a week<p>Olive oil: use it as your main cooking oil.<p>The diet discourages:[10]<p>Butter and stick margarine: more than a tablespoon daily<p>Pastries and sweets: more than five servings a week<p>Red meat: more than four servings a week<p>Cheese: more than one serving a week<p>Fried or fast food: more than one serving a week<p>The M is for Mediterranean, if you couldn&#x27;t tell. I wouldn&#x27;t mind a glass of red wine. But I&#x27;d like to have cheese with it.

&quot;along with a glass of wine&quot;<p>lol, doctors of the future are going to look back at the degree to which our medical establishment was totally mindfucked by the wine industry someday.<p>Or maybe they&#x27;ll just be surprised as how few drugs were in it...<p>What if MIND2 was<p>four servings of grain A chicken one joint a handful of mushrooms a micro-dose of acid and smidge of the new cocaine derivative designed for kids

MIND not &quot;Mind&quot;.. and MIND is some acronym of acronym.

Arm-chair psychiatrist-ing here, but it seems to me like people who are willing and capable of thinking about their diet at this level of complexity would be more likely to do well on tests. I wonder what the results of the study would be if they had these same people eat whatever they wanted, but do the meal planning for a third person?

Skeptical. This diet is just eat nuts and fish with advertising for other food industries marketed on superstition. Nuts and fish provide the benefit. You can&#x27;t solve a a chronic disease based on a molecular process by eating less McDonalds and more fresh berries. Not addressing the cause. IMO the cause is HPV.

The best thing you can do to increase cognitive performance is to learn to think abstractly.

Wine is only good if the relaxation gained (everybody is different) is greater than the documented carcinogenic effects.<p>My mom is diabetic. She definitely gets relaxed from it, but I wonder if it she should cut out the &quot;glass a day&quot; thing.

Based on an annual questionnaire of how frequently the food categories were consumed. I struggle to understand how research based on that data can be useful.
