A letter to the Health Secretary, Jeremy Hunt, by a group of doctors and health experts has revealed an easy way to cut dementia.
The letter includes names like Professor Clare Gerada, former chair of the Royal College of GPs and Professor David Haslam, head of the National Obesity Forum. They affirmed that healthy diet is the best way to fight and reduce dementia.
People should eat more fruits, vegetables, nuts, and fish and olive oil to cut the disease. Leading doctors and experts were of the view that it is high time now that the strategy should be refocused to tackle dementia.
It is vital to take away attention from dubious drugs and focus on the benefits of Mediterranean diet. Experts have affirmed that due to lack of awareness with regard to diet, benefits of the same could not come out completely.
With this, they have also said that in comparison to researches carried out on cancers, study on dementia is far behind. "Policy makers and the public need to know that such a diet is far more potent than the often dubious benefit of many medications and without side effects", said London cardiologist Dr. Aseem Malhotra.
