MY REVIEW:  "The MIND Diet Plan & Cookbook: Recipes and Lifestyle Guidelines to Help Prevent Alzheimer's and Dementia" is a thoroughly- researched and very well-presented guide to help you improve cognition. "MIND" stands for Mediterranean-DASH Intervention for Neurodegenerative Delay--it's a combination of the Mediterranean Diet and the DASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension). Foods to eat sparingly include red meats, butter, margarine, cheese, pastries/sweets, and fried/fast foods--foods high in saturated fat. Healthy Mind Foods include leafy greens, other vegetables, whole grains, berries, nuts, seafoods, poultry, beans and legumes, and vegetable oils. You will love the more than 75 recipes which feature dishes like these: "Cherry-Oat Smoothies"; "Three-Bean and Vegetable Chili"; "Italian Wedding Soup"; "Mini Veggie Pot Pies"; "Rainbow Veggie Spring Rolls"; "Apple & Wild-Rice Stuffed Acorn Squash"; "Lemony Garlic Shrimp Scampi"; "Fish Tacos with Cabbage Slaw";"Honey Mustard Grilled Salmon"; "Orange Chicken and Broccoli Stir-Fry"; "Crispy Parmesan Chicken Tenders"; "Pumpkin Oatmeal Raisin Cookies"; and "Crustless Apple Pies". The 4-week meal plan includes a wide variety of foods and comes with helpful shopping lists for convenient meal prep. Author Julie Andrews, MS, RDN, CD, states that her goal is to "help you reduce your risk of Alzheimer's Disease and dementia while simultaneously building your skills in the kitchen, growing your love for cooking, and improving your relationship with food".
