Eating soft food versus chewing hard food. My mom ate tv dinners heated in the microwave in an aluminum pan. She developed Alzheimer's.

Are you sure she was microwaving aluminum pans before she developed Alzheimer's, not after?

Tv dinners haven’t been sold in aluminum pans since the 80s, when microwaves came out.

The focus of the video is what happens to the brain when we stop chewing food. These days so much food is processed and doesn't require chewing, which effects the brain, which leads to Alzheimer's. The video is worth watching if you want to learn how you can avoid it by simply changing your diet.

I wanted to joke that extra crispy may then actually be health food, but I won't. What I will say it that correlation does not imply causation.

Except for liquids, I chew all foods. Some are easy, others require more effort (and then I change carnecerias). It is overly simplistic to imply a force threshold causes a multi-faceted disease The brain is a marvelously complex organ, increasingly so at the synaptic and molecular levels, with multiple redundancies and feedback loops. Will eating better improve your health? Probably, but don't read too much into it.

Would that Alzheimer's were so simple to avoid... but thanks for sharing the video.

The stuffy, right wing Daily Telegraph offers a compromise - which if it were not so stuffy and right wing it would probably call a "hack."

Eat your mushy greens and then chew gum.

I kid you not - although the benefits discovered are more to do with reducing blood pressure than dementia:

Maybe get the Shingles (Herpes Zoster) vaccine, Zovirax, to reduce dementia risk? And take your vitamin B (especially riboflavin) supplements. Follow Dr. Robert Love on IG, he advocates for Lions Mane, among other things. And learn languages.
