cutting calories way down can strengthen your brain cells
A mildly interesting article about how restricted calorie diets is good for your brain:
Brain-FX: Eat Less for More Smarts?
When you overeat, you damage your cells faster. When lab animals are put on low-calorie diets, trimming 30 to 40 percent off their food intake, they live one-third to one-half times longer than expected! Such animals remain younger than their counterparts fed on a normal calorie diet. Everything about them is younger including their brains and memories.For example, islanders on Okinawa for years ate a diet with 17 to 40 percent fewer calories than other Japanese, had 30 to 40 percent less chronic disease, including neurodegenerative disorders such as Alzheimer�s.
This is kind of related to what I was reading in Cosmos magazine (the one that told me about Resveratrol).
I will ponder this over a doughnut.
