2026年5月13日 / 美国东部时间上午10:00 / 哥伦比亚广播公司新闻(CBS News)

对身体有益的食物,同样能为大脑健康带来长期益处。

《CBS早间新闻》正与赞助商阿尔茨海默病协会合作推出三集系列报道《大脑健康:从认知到行动》,探讨人们可以养成的有益大脑健康习惯,或有助于降低日后罹患痴呆症的风险。

阿尔茨海默病协会首席执行官兼主席乔安妮·派克表示,除了加强体育锻炼等其他生活方式改变之外,营养是促进大脑健康的主要途径之一。

“阿尔茨海默病协会开展的一项生活方式干预研究显示,体育活动、营养摄入和大脑训练确实能够保护并提升你的认知能力,”派克在接受《CBS早间新闻》联合主播盖尔·金采访时说道。

饮食与营养在该协会全新推出的“6步挑战”项目中扮演着重要角色,该项目为大众提供日常实用建议,助力维持认知功能。

有益大脑健康的饮食建议:推荐与限制食物

专为大脑健康设计的饮食模式——即MIND饮食——强调多摄入以下食物:

  • 水果
  • 蔬菜,尤其是绿叶蔬菜
  • 全谷物
  • 瘦蛋白

派克表示,这些食物“营养丰富且密度高,具有极高的食用价值”。

这项得到多年科学研究支持的饮食方案同时建议限制加工食品和添加糖的摄入。

为帮助人们坚持健康饮食,派克建议记录自己的食物摄入量,“以此了解自己正在吃什么,以及如何做出改进,或是简单地将不太健康的食物替换为更健康的选择。”

派克补充道,参与阿尔茨海默病协会挑战项目的学员将获得指导,学习如何将上述及其他建议融入日常生活。项目目标是养成可长期坚持的健康习惯。

“这是一场长期改善大脑健康的运动,同时也要尽早行动。要知道,你在40岁和50岁时的大脑健康状况,会影响你的衰老过程,”她说。“关注大脑健康,越早开始越好。”

How does diet impact brain health? Alzheimer’s Association shares nutrition tips with cognitive function in mind.

May 13, 2026 / 10:00 AM EDT / CBS News

Foods that are good for your body can also have long-term benefits for brain health.

“CBS Mornings” is partnering with our sponsor the Alzheimer’s Association for a three-part series, “Brain Health: From Awareness to Action,” to explore the brain-healthy habits people can establish that may help lower the risk of dementia later in life.

Alongside other lifestyle changes like ramping up physical movement, Alzheimer’s Association CEO and president Joanne Pike says nutrition is one of the primary ways we can promote brain health.

“The Alzheimer’s Association conducted a lifestyle intervention research study that showed physical activity, nutrition and brain challenge really saves and increases your cognitive abilities,” Pike told “CBS Mornings” co-host Gayle King.

Diet and nutrition play an important role in the association’s new “6-Step Challenge,” which provides people with everyday tips to support their cognitive function.

Foods to eat, and limit, for brain health

A diet geared toward brain health — known as the MIND diet — emphasizes meals that are high in:

  • Fruits
  • Vegetables, especially leafy greens
  • Whole grains
  • Lean proteins

Those options “are nutrient-rich and dense, with great food value,” said Pike.

The diet, which is backed by years of scientific research, also recommends limiting processed foods and added sugar.

To help keep yourself on track, Pike suggests keeping a log of your food intake, “to understand what are you eating and how can you improve or make those simple swaps from things that might not be as healthy to something that’s a little bit healthier.”

People who participate in the Alzheimer’s Association’s challenge will receive guidance on how to incorporate these and other recommendations into their daily lives. The goal is to develop healthier habits that can be sustained for years to come, Pike added.

“This is a movement about increasing brain health over time, and also starting at an earlier age, understanding that your brain health at 40 and 50 is going to impact how you age,” she said. “You can’t be too young to think about your brain health.”

More information about the Alzheimer’s Association’s “(re)think your brain” initiative and “6-Step Challenge” is available online at rethinkyourbrain.org. Users can sign up for the challenge there, and elect to receive daily action steps and guidance via text or email.
