Your diet

            Eat less, remember more. Overweight people who reduced their calorie intake by 30% a day scored 20% higher on a word-based memory test than they had before dieting. The dieters had lower levels of glucose and insulin in their blood-factors linked in earlier studies to improved brain function.

            Chew nuts longer to feel fuller. Recent finding: People who chewed a small number of almonds 40 times before swallowing them felt greater fullness after the snack and for longer than those who chewed the nuts 10 or 25 times before swallowing.

            Eating fatty fish just once a week will lower men's risk for heart failure. Reason: Fish such as salmon, herring, mackerel, whitefish and char contain omega-3 fatty acids. One weekly three-ounce serving of any of these fish reduced heart failure risk by 12%.
