Overexposure to carbohydrates and glucose is suspected to be responsible for the deterioration of the myelin sheath protecting the nerves in the brain, which is suspected of being implicated in a variety of neurological disorders ranging from diabetes, dementia and Alzheimers’s Disease to Parkinson’s Disease, Multiple Sclerosis, Epilepsy, and other neurological maladies. Changing the diet from a reliance upon glucose to a reliance upon ketones derived from fat for daily caloric and nutrient requirements has anecdotal and research suggesting these disorders can be mitigated or reversed to some extent. The use of coconut oil with nutritional ketosis is alleged to reverse some short term memory loss and dementia.

The pure foods diet has a lot of the attributes that you're suggesting.

An aspect of mental health that no one has brought up is the non-nutritional choices. Take a walk, garden, make lists of things from memory, do crossword and other puzzles, learn something new or relearned from the past, take notes and review them when you read something. Etc.
