A new study suggests diets including eggs, especially the yolk, may help reduce the risk of Alzheimer’s disease.

Published in The Journal of Nutrition, the study followed more than 1,000 U.S. adults and found that those who consumed more than one egg weekly had a 47 percent reduced risk of Alzheimer’s.

Over an average follow-up of 6.7 years, 280 participants, or 27.3 percent, were diagnosed with Alzheimer’s dementia. Researchers found that 39 percent of the “total effect of egg intake” was linked to choline, a nutrient found in egg yolks known to support memory and brain function.

  1. So between all the studies over the last few years covering preventative health, now we have the following minimum consumption every day:
    2 cups of coffee,
    2 cups of tea
    1 glass of milk
    1 glass of tomato juice (for men)
    4-5 large glasses of water
    1 egg
    10 fresh fruits/vegetables

    Exactly where does one fit in actual, um, food?

    1. It's correlation not causation
