These Foods May Help Prevent Memory Loss One in nine Americans over <br />age 45 have reported experiencing <br />“cognitive decline,” such as <br />confusion or memory loss. Harvard University conducted a <br />20-year study that had promising results <br />for the prevention of cognitive decline. The study followed almost 23,000 male health professionals with an average starting age of 51. The three specific foods linked to <br />memory loss prevention in men were <br />orange juice, leafy greens and berries. The participants were required <br />to take subjective thinking and <br />memory skills tests. The researchers concluded that orange and red vegetables were helpful in preventing memory loss. These foods can be incorporated into <br />your daily diet through salads or smoothies, adding berries to your oatmeal or <br />by placing your meal on a bed of greens.
