Living WFPB: Build Memory Power as you Sleep - Lecture and Cooking Demo.
Sleep is important. If your sleep is disturbed, your memory "files" remain in a jumble, and you have a hard time coming up with the names and words you need. Once you are asleep, your brain no longer has to pay attention to conscious life, it can file away the experiences of the day, reset your emotional balance, shore up your pain control and generally tidy up. Certain medications and health conditions can wreak havoc with your brain cells and interfere with sleep. Bottom line, your brain needs rest!

Living WFPB: Medicines & Health Conditions that Affect Memory - Lecture and Cooking Demo.
When anyone experiences any sort of memory problem, medication should be high on the list of suspects.

Some hidden medical problems that can affect your memory include: gluten intolerance, depression, menopause, thyroid hormone, lack of oxygen to the brain, infections, cancer treatments, and diabetes. If you notice any change in your mental function, a check of the medicine cabinet and a good medical evaluation hopefully will identify the cause so you can address it promptly.

WFPB Foods that Protect You from Harmful Fats and Cholesterol - Lecture and Cooking Demo.
Blue zones are places where people enjoy good health as well as healthy brain functions well into old age. In all these places, people's food choices have one thing in common: they emphasize food from plant sources. The biggest source of saturated fat in the American diet is from dairy and meat products. Combining the saturated fat with metals aggravates the production of beta-amyloid in your brain cells. Zinc causes the beta-amyloid to come together and copper and iron make free radicals that destroy your brain cells.
