**An acronym for a brain-protecting diet.** The mediterranean diet seems to be great. And his acronym is ‘eating SHARP’ - **S** - Slash sugar (no added sugar… frankly limit natural sugars too) - **H** - Hydrate smartly (you shouldn’t wait until you’re thirsty to drink - **A** - Add more Omega 3s from natural sources - **R** - Reduce Portions (you shouldn’t ever feel “full”) - **P** - Plan Ahead - don’t eat just whatever’s convenient # A Better Breakfast Rather than a bagel or cereal, try one of these: - Egg Frittata, with lots of veggies and whole-grain toast topped with almond butter. - Steel Cut Oatmeal with Cinnamon, Berries, and a Drizzle of Honey - Greek Yogurt, plain, with berries and blueberries, and tablespoon of real maple syrup - No juices. Water or black coffee. Smoothies and juices pass through the small intestine too soon and you don’t absorb them well enough. **** ## Source - [[Keep Sharp]] ## Related - [[Alzheimer’s is “Type 3 Diabetes”]] - [[Dietary Water]]
