NOTE FROM TED: Please do not look to this talk for medical advice. The speaker makes assertions about a specific diet that lack sufficient scientific evidence for general prescription. TEDx events are independently organized by volunteers. The guidelines we give TEDx organizers are described in more detail here: storage.ted.com/tedx/manuals/t...
Dr. Barnard has led numerous research studies investigating the effects of diet on diabetes, body weight, and chronic pain, including a groundbreaking study of dietary interventions in type 2 diabetes, funded by the National Institutes of Health. Dr. Barnard has authored over 70 scientific publications as well as 17 books. As president of the Physicians Committee, Dr. Barnard leads programs advocating for preventive medicine, good nutrition, and higher ethical standards in research. He has hosted three PBS television programs on nutrition and health and is frequently called on by news programs to discuss issues related to nutrition and research. Originally from Fargo, North Dakota, Dr. Barnard received his M.D. degree at the George Washington University School of Medicine and completed his residency at the same institution. He practiced at St. Vincent’s Hospital in New York before returning to Washington to found the Physicians Committee.

@@Mercymurv "believed to be'" doesn't prove anything. I haven't read anything about a connection between eating animal products and dementia. I would have to see the nature of the proof. I'm sure that it is extremely thin! There is a 2013 video on youtube in which Dr. Greger says that vegans/vegetarians have 3 times the Alzheimer's of meat eaters as well as the same rates of heart disease and cancer. The Alzheimer's makes sense, because so many vegs are deficient in B12, as are older people. I eat little meat and lots of vegetables, but regard a vegan way of eating to be high risk and I supplement with B vitamins, including B12. Since Alzheimer's has been referred to as type 3 diabetes, I think it more likely that it is a high carb, high sugar diet that is likely to be the key causative factor.

What a great talk! He makes it very simple, to summarize do these for reducing risk of Alzheimer's and increase well being: 1. Eat colorful fruits and veggies daily: blueberries, grapes, broccoli etc for better memory. 2. Take Vitamin E to eliminate free radicals from brain but not just from pills but from foods like nuts / seeds (just a few), spinach, mangoes etc. 3. Reduce trans-fat from foods like donuts, pastries; and saturated fats like from Bacon, meat, cheese/dairy. 4. Reduce metals like iron, copper. Do not use iron skillets etc. 4. Exercise: nothing crazy, just do brisk walk three times a week, up to 40 minutes each time. Do all of the above and one can reduce the risk of Alzheimer's by 80% even if you have the gene.

emotion is not scientific and is used by the snake oil merchant in selling their wears. The emotion is to sell a story regardless if it has any merit or is just BS. At around 6:40 in the video he talks about Iron and copper in the brain and talks about a rusting fry pan. this is absolute crap. we have many minerals (metals) in our body and of course they are in an oxidized form. Iron makes up the majority of our blood as being the major component of Hemoglobin. without it we will not be able to transport oxygen to the cells or brain. once you have to revert to emotion and distortions, any truth if it exists, is lost. entertaining yes, accurate not really. there is an agenda in Dr Barnard's talks and they all revolve around a vegan or no meat diet. it would be interesting to find out if there are any pecuniary interests at play.

I can relate. My mum passed away last March after 16 years of Alzheimer’s. Five year as a complete vegetable. She was diagnosed at 66, quite young actually. I was 34, too young to loose your mum, too young to parent a parent. All the women in her family died of the same illness. I became vegetarian (almost vegan) years ago, just by chance, then started running, cycling long distance. Again by chance. I didn’t know I was fighting my genes (and the fear, a paralyzing fear sometimes!!!) that way. I’ll keep eating a plant-food diet and exercise daily. Keep learning new things (my job helps luckily). I also stopped drinking alcohol and started meditating. Women in my family had bad genes, yes, but they never changed their lifestyle. I have. This is my personal bet I can fight my genes.

I suffered from sever attention deficit all my life. As a child I used to think I was just not as smart as the other kids. Over the years I learned to cope with my ADD. Finally in my late 40's when it started affecting my work, I decided to go on medication. Fast forward a couple of years I heard about the Keto Diet and Intermittent Fasting. I decided to give that a try to lose some weight and surprisingly I noticed a change in my focus and clarity. I was all of sudden have bursts of super focus and my mind was not wandering. I have been on the Keto diet for now 6 months and have no trouble focusing. I am not medical expert but I love the new found focus, I have lost 35 pounds. I am also a long distance runner, before Keto I would carb load before a race like a half marathon, now I run a half marathon without putting an ounce of carb in me. So though I don't claim to be an expert, I love the positive changes that Keto and Intermittent Fasting has made in my life. Just my two cents !!!

In my experience (just based off observation), I feel that movement and using your brain, whether its reading, writing, building things, or anything that causes you do have to figure something out, is the best thing you can do above diet. NOW, I know that diet makes a difference. I am just basing this off the people that are old 70+ and still cognitively sharp. I had the same experience with my dad that he did. My dad was only 62 when he died of Alzheimer's (top 10% for how young he was). He was always on the lazier side. Looking back after he already got really bad, I realized that he wasn't just lazy when it came to doing chores around the house but anything that required him to critically think like reading instructions, or having to figure something out, he'd generally shy away from or take the easiest route possible. He used to be horrible at cleaning up around the house, always wanted people to do stuff for him and wasn't that organized of a person outside of his interests like music (guitars, amps etc) and anything to do with his motorcycle. I started observing a lot of people that are 70+ that are mentally sharp and realize they are always doing things for themselves. Still cutting their own grass, taking care of the garden, grocery shopping, cooking, cleaning, etc... A lot of those people I am referring to still eat meat, dairy, pastries etc. Now I'm sure there's more to it and genes play a roll as well but I do not feel like those people have particularly great diets but they all are hard workers and always want to do things themselves. That's just what I have observed. Anyone else have thoughts on this?

Those are very valid points. I'm no psychologist/psychiatrist but I wanted to point out that your dad had classic symptoms of undiagnosed ADHD. I only mention it because I at 31 found out I have it, and just KNOWING about it and educating myself makes all the difference in the world. Sorry to hear you lost your dad and thank you for sharing that.

You won't get these solutions from allopathic medicine. Seek out functional medicine foctors. I learned all I used on YT videos.

She's in Heaven now where she suffers no more.
