What will YOU be sending your kids for lunch?

Read MoreAlzheimer’s Disease – Cut Your Risk By Living Healthily
Today in the news : This week, the Lancet Neurology medical journal published the results of an extensive study into the potential prevention of Alzheimer’s disease by avoiding seven significant, yet potentially avoidable, risk factors. They concluded that roughly half of all (33 million) cases of Alzheimer’s disease, worldwide, could be attributed to one or more of these risk factors, and that as much as one quarter of all cases could be prevented through healthier lifestyle choices. * * * The seven risk factors, in descending order of magnitude, were identified as: * Low...
