Moontanman Posted August 24, 2010 Report Posted August 24, 2010 Eating Berries May Activate the Brain's Natural Housekeeper for Healthy Aging ScienceDaily (Aug. 24, 2010) — Scientists have reported the first evidence that eating blueberries, strawberries, and acai berries may help the aging brain stay healthy in a crucial but previously unrecognized way. Their study, presented at the 240th National Meeting of the American Chemical Society (ACS), concluded that berries, and possibly walnuts, activate the brain's natural "housekeeper" mechanism, which cleans up and recycles toxic proteins linked to age-related memory loss and other mental decline. http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2010/08/100823142927.htm Quote
