Fat and copper micronutrients reduce memory

Elderly people who eat a high-fat and high-quality copper diet are at risk of neurological depression, even Alzheimer's disease - an American dementia and alert disease.

In a six-year study of more than 3,700 people age 65 and older, scientists found that about 600 people consumed at least 1.6 milligrams of copper a day with high-fat, and many people in this group had neurological depression about 19 years earlier than their age.

According to study author Martha Clare Morris, from Rush University in Chicago, copper, zinc and iron are essential micronutrients for brain development, but having too much copper in the blood impedes ability. The body's own body removes proteins that play a major role in the formation of plaque found in Alzheimer's patients' brains. Many studies found in Alzheimer's patients, the amount of copper in the body is quite high.

Copper is abundant in animal organs such as liver, shellfish such as shrimp, crab, shellfish, nuts, legumes, some fruits, potatoes and chocolate. Drinking water with copper cans can also put more copper into the body. Many types of multivitamins also contribute to the increase of copper in the body.

While fatty acids - inherent in processed food products - also increase cholesterol levels, increasing the risk of coronary artery disease and stroke. Previous studies have also shown that fat increases the risk of Alzheimer's by three times.
