IF you had cereal for breakfast or just scoffed a sandwich for lunch, maybe don't read this. Because grains are destroying your brain, according to this doctor.

David Perlmutter, a renowned neurologist and president of the Perlmutter Health Center in Naples, Florida, says there's a close relationship between lifestyle, our modern diet and dementia.

Dr Perlmutter, who has just released a New York Times best-selling book Grain Brain: The Surprising Truth About Wheat, Carbs, and Sugar - Your Brain's Silent Killers says it's not just unhealthy carbs that should be cut.

The secret to weatherproofing good shoe leather is bacon grease. *<];-’)

If bacon grease isn’t available (HAH!) bear grease or goose grease are good substitutes.

There's nothing left to eat that is healthy for you.

There's quinoa. Quinoa has no limiting amino acids; it is a complete protein source. It is a grass, not a grain. It is a low-GI, low glycemic-load source of carbs. It has only trace amounts of of oils/fats.

Mix it with lightly-steamed veggies and finely-chopped raw peppers and spices.

Supplement Omega 3, vitamins & minerals, calcium carbonate and B12.

Run, swim, row & lift.
