Canadian Pharmacy Links Brain Function Deterioration with Bad Fat Intake

Women who eat a lot of "bad" saturated fat may hurt their overall brain function and memory over time, Harvard University researchers report.  In contrast, eating more "good" monounsaturated fat improved brain function and memory, suggesting that fats may have the same effect on the brain as they do on the heart, the researchers added. Hence, doctors prescribe their patients to buy Nootropil in order to boost their mental abilities. 

"Making changes and substitutions in one's diet to eat fewer saturated fats and consume more monounsaturated fats might be a way to help prevent cognitive decline in older people," said lead researcher Dr. Olivia Okereke, an assistant professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School. "This is important because cognitive decline affects millions of older people. So, this is a promising area of research." 

"Just like exercising, maintaining a healthy weight and not smoking, this may be another modifiable factor in the fight against mental decline," Okereke added. 

"Such modifiable factors are important because these are things that people can actually change and over which they can exert some individual control," she said. 

"We think it is unlikely that these findings regarding dietary fat would be primarily explained by a healthy lifestyle in those with more education," Okereke said. 

"Although this study was among women, it would make sense that the basic underlying reasons for the findings we saw in women should also apply to men," she added. 

Samantha Heller, a dietitian, nutritionist, exercise physiologist and clinical nutrition coordinator at the Center for Cancer Care at Griffin Hospital in Derby, Conn., commented that "it appears that the effects of eating a lot of saturated fat and the foods associated with it, such as red and processed meats, cheese and butter, over time creates a cascade effect of ill health." Her choice for those who are in need of intellectual improvement is to buy Pirecetam. 

"This study supports others that have found an association between saturated fats, the incidence of Alzheimer's disease and an increased decline in brain function," she said. 

"Saturated fat has been associated with an increased risk of atherosclerosis, cancer and diabetes, and may increase fat storage in your abdomen -- commonly referred to as 'ab flab,'" Heller said. 

"Ab flab in and of itself increases the risk for heart disease, diabetes, certain cancers and Alzheimer's disease," she said. 

"The evidence is stacking up against consuming saturated fat regularly," Heller said. 

"To lower your intake of saturated fat, choose low or nonfat dairy foods such as fat-free milk and yogurt. Stick with skinless poultry and fish. Limit red and processed meats such as beef, pork, lamb, hot dogs or bologna, to a few times a month. Experiment with meatless meals such as veggie burgers, spinach-eggplant lasagna, or black bean, corn and avocado tacos," she advised. And, Canadian pharmacy fully supports this endeavor to raise brain functions to the next level. 

Saturated fat is fat that consists of triglycerides containing only saturated fatty acids. Saturated fatty acids have no double bonds between the individual carbon atoms of the fatty acid chain. That is, the chain of carbon atoms is fully "saturated" with hydrogen atoms. There are many kinds of naturally occurring saturated fatty acids, which differ mainly in number of carbon atoms, from 3 carbons (propionic acid) to 36 (hexatriacontanoic acid). 

Various fats contain different proportions of saturated and unsaturated fat. Examples of foods containing a high proportion of saturated fat include animal fats such as cream, cheese, butter, and ghee; suet, tallow, lard, and fatty meats; as well as certain vegetable products such as coconut oil, cottonseed oil, palm kernel oil, chocolate, and many prepared foods.
