Brain Food and Drink

Daily Drink Helps Keep Brain Sharp, Data Suggest (washingtonpost.com)

While I'm not very productive today, I thought I'd catch up on my blogging. I found this article very interesting, since I like to drink moderately. This only supports my theory that daily doses of alcohol are actually good for a person. I'm not saying that it's okay to drink constantly, but one or two a day should not be harmful.

Beer is probably not the best choice for daily use, due to its abdominal-expanding effects. I would choose something like vodka or brandy. Now we know why the wealthy in the movies always have that carafe of favorite drink on the credenza and pour a glass when they get home.

Also, I've heard for many years that tuna is "brain food." If this is so, I encourage the consumption of tuna and related fish for further brain development (the world could use a few more smart people.) The mercury content in the tuna has adverse effects, though, so maybe you should limit your tuna to twice a week.

I'm rambling. Sorry.
