Weight Watchers tied with the Fertility diet and MIND (Mediterranean-DASH Intervention for Neurodegenerative Delay) for the easiest-to-follow diet.
Research at Rush University Medical Center funded by the National Institute on Aging found that balancing the Mediterranean diet with the DASH diet can lower the risk of developing Alzheimer's by as much as 53%; it could also slow mental decline in Parkinson's or other neurodegenerative diseases.
MIND follows a food regimen of 10 brain-healthy food groups: green leafy vegetables in particular, other vegetables, nuts, berries, beans, whole grains, fish, poultry, olive oil and, yes, wine. This is an easy diet to follow, but because the research is new there isn't much information available yet.
