Here's a link to a Fox News piece about how reducing food intake can improve memory function. Make sure when you're trying out for Jeopardy that it's a Wednesday or Friday!

Just an added benefit!

Checked to see if the above link works - it just takes you to Yahoo News. You have to click on the article about eating less boosting memory. Can't get the link for the actual video to copy.

Unfortunately it took me to Yahoo UK and Ireland - and that story wasn't there. I tried world news and oddly enough but couldn't find the story. Never mind

Sorry Starbright. I don't have any other way to list it here as it's a video and I can't copy the actual site of the video - not sure why, but I can't. You may be able to google Fox News and search for eating less increases memory or something like that.

But basically the gist of the story was that when we eat less we have better memory retention. By reducing our calories - to say 2000 calories a day - we increase our brain function for memory. They were suggesting a 30 percent reduction in calories, but cautioned that if you're already at 2000 or below, not to reduce it further.

@ spirit :http://abcnews.go.com/Health/Diet/story ... 142&page=1 (let the video run, there is a commercial at the beginning, after that you have the issue.)

Prayer thank you so much! The video and accompanying article have way more information than my initial video had. This is awesome!

Here it is as a clickable link:

The ABC News story comes up after the Audi commercial.
