8 nutrients that help grow new brain cells and improve memory

Posted on August 3, 2024November 17, 2024 By drshintani No Comments on 8 nutrients that help grow new brain cells and improve memory

For years, we were taught that you can’t grow new brain cells once you’re an adult. But now research shows that we actually can and do grow new brain cells even to old age. We now know that a substance called BDNF or brain derived neurotrophic factors stimulate the growth of new brain cells and help to enhance brain function and memory. Here are 8 of the top nutrients that help produce BDNF; Number 1, Catechins which are found in green tea. Number 2, Anthocyanins found in berries. Number 3, Resveratrol found in red and purple grapes. Number 4, Curcumin found in turmeric. Number 5, Chlorogenic acid found in coffee. Number 6, Omega 3 oils that you can get from chia seeds, flax seeds, and fatty fish. Number 7, Sulforaphane found in broccoli. And Number 8, Healthy gut flora which is supported by soluble and insoluble fiber.

Eat this and not that to prevent all Alzheimer’s disease

Posted on August 2, 2024November 17, 2024 By drshintani No Comments on Eat this and not that to prevent all Alzheimer’s disease

A startling fact about Alzheimer’s was revealed by Dr. Rudolf Tanji, Chair of the Alzheimer’s research group at Harvard. He points out that some animals always get Alzheimer’s pathology in their brain and others never do depending on what they eat. He explains that all meat-eating animals get Alzheimer’s pathology in their brain if they live long enough, while herbivores, plant-eaters, never do. While this observation is about animals, recent human studies support this view that avoiding meat and following a plant-based diet can aid in preventing Alzheimer’s disease. One 15-year long study published in 2022 revealed that vegetarians had a 33% lower risk of developing Alzheimer’s, compared to meat-eaters. Another study published in 2024 revealed that there’s a 14% increase in risk of Alzheimer’s and people who ate an average of one ounce of processed meat per day. The study also showed that there was a 20% reduction in risk if the ounce of meat was replaced by beans and nuts. So to start preserving your brain function, consider eating less meat and more plant-based foods.

Bilateral mastectomy doesn’t improve breast cancer survival over unilateral mastectomy

Posted on August 1, 2024November 17, 2024 By drshintani No Comments on Bilateral mastectomy doesn’t improve breast cancer survival over unilateral mastectomy

Bilateral mastectomy doesn’t improve breast cancer survival says new research. A lot of women who have cancer in one breast are afraid that it will recur in the opposite breast. So they opt to have both breasts removed. A recent study published in JAMA Oncology found that women with breast cancer who opted for bilateral mastectomy did not have any better survival rates compared to those who had a lumpectomy or just one breast removed. This study followed over 600,00 women with breast cancer for 20 years. While double mastectomy did lower the chance of cancer recurring in the opposite breast, it did not improve overall survival. This is likely because breast cancer deaths are due to the spread of the initial tumor to vital organs rather than any new cancers forming in the opposite breast. This study may not apply to the 1 in 500 women who have the BRCA gene.

This neglected super nutrient is associated with 30% less heart disease 22% less stroke and less

Posted on July 31, 2024November 17, 2024 By drshintani No Comments on This neglected super nutrient is associated with 30% less heart disease 22% less stroke and less

This often neglected nutrient reduces LDL cholesterol and is associated with less heart disease and stroke mortality. It is also associated with less cancer of the breast, stomach, prostate, and pancreas, and reduces colon cancer by about 16%. This super nutrient is fiber. Dietary fiber slows blood sugar absorption and is associated with 16% less diabetes. Research also indicates that those who ate 18g of fiber or more had a 26% lower risk of Alzheimer’s disease compared to those who ate 10g per day. A typical American eats about 10 to 15 grams of fiber per day. Women should aim for about 25g per day and men around 35g per day. Some of the best sources of fiber are beans and lentils with about 11 to 15 grams of fiber per cup. Old grains with 3 and a half to 6 grams of fiber per cup. Fruit with about 3 to 5 grams of fiber per cup. Vegetables with roughly 3 to 10 grams of fiber per cup.

Posted on July 28, 2024November 17, 2024 By drshintani No Comments on What foods help cancer to self-destruct? There’s a natural process that protects the body against

There’s a natural process that protects the body against cancer by which cancer cells self destruct when the cells recognize when they are abnormal, this process is known as “apoptosis”. Part of the reason for the progression of cancer is that this process may be defective or the cancer cell evades this apoptosis process. We now know that there are a number of nutrients that help to restore or strengthen apoptosis as a way to fight cancer, here are 11 of them; E G C G is in green tea, No. 2, resveratrol in grapes, No. 3, fisetin in mango, strawberries and grapes, No. 4, anthocyanidins in colorful fruits like blueberries and strawberries, No. 5, curcumin in turmeric, No. 6, sulforaphane in cruciferous vegetables, No. 7, Organo-sulfur compounds in garlic and onions, No. 8, Lycopene in tomato, No. 9, quercetin in apples and onions, No. 10, silymarin in milk thistle, No. 11, genistein in soy foods. There are many others.

Posted on July 26, 2024November 17, 2024 By drshintani No Comments on Want to reduce your risk of diabetes by up to 48%? Try these three high carb foods

I’ve been reversing obesity and diabetes naturally for over 30 years, and I published my results in peer reviewed journals. Yet I was criticized because I used a high carb diet in order to do this. But recently research is supporting my high carb approach. For example a large study of 194,000 people with over 18,000 cases of diabetes revealed that those who ate the most whole grain had a 29% lower risk of diabetes. In another study, looking at the connection between bean and legume intake with diabetes. Researchers found a 35% lower in the incidence of diabetes among those who ate the most beans and legumes compared to those who ate the least. And in another study of a high carb food fruit, diabetes researchers found that those who ate whole fruit once a day had a 48% lower risk of diabetes compared to those who ate fruit rarely. So to reduce the risk of diabetes, eat more whole unprocessed grains, beans and whole fruit.

What is the one beverage to avoid to reduce her risk of breast cancer? This is a beverage that

Posted on July 24, 2024November 17, 2024 By drshintani No Comments on What is the one beverage to avoid to reduce her risk of breast cancer? This is a beverage that

It comes as a surprise to most people that this common beverage increases the risk of breast cancer in women. Reality is this beverage raises estrogen levels that can stimulate the growth of breast tissue and increase the risk of breast cancer. The beverage is Alcohol, research indicates that women who have 3 alcoholic beverages per week, that’s not even one per day, have a 15% higher risk of breast cancer than those who don’t drink alcohol at all. For women who averaged 3 alcoholic beverages per day, there was a 30% increase in risk of breast cancer. And it didn’t matter whether it was beer, wine or spirits, ther all contributed to the risk.
