Dan Buettner of Blue Zone, along with the National Geographic, found five areas of the world where people live the longest and healthiest.  He studied what they do, what they eat, etc. He found each area has at least one distinct diet that helps people stay healthier longer. Is there such a pocket of such  people in the U.S.? Yes, in Loma Linda California.  They are Seventh Day Adventists and they base their diet on Gen 1:29. Here’s the passage. Then God said,” I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. They will be yours for food.”  (NIV version) Interesting…. the eating of meat had not been introduced yet.     The plant based died was the original diet.

Can dieting stop Alzheimer’s?

By not eating as much, can we control the devastating effects of diseases like Alzheimer’s, Diabetes and muscle weakness?

Scientists at the Mount Sinai School of Medicine think they have the answer.

They believe a lower-calorie diet slows the development of some age-related conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease, as well as the aging process.

How?

By controlling calories, a protein called CBP is allowed to flourish.  This protein controls cellular function and can help keep cells healthier as they age.

Scientists are hoping to develop drugs that will be substitutes for the natural CBP.
