Alzheimer’s disease can be stopped in its tracks with a single daily pill scientists claimed this month.

According to their research published in the journal Archives of Neurology a daily dose of omega 3 fats may be able to stop the disease taking hold in the early stages. Omega 3 is available in supplements but found naturally in oily fish like salmon and mackerel and in nuts, seeds and leafy vegetables.

“Older people who exercise three or more times a week are less likely to suffer from Alzheimer’s and other types of dementia.”
