Study suggests eating ...

Now this is great news. Maybe you have heard or read about the results of a Dutch study which has shown that increasing daily intake of folic acid can be linked to decreased memory loss (memory retention). How much folic acid should we eat each day? The study reports the benefits of eating the equivalent of 2.5 POUNDS of strawberries EVERY DAY! Now I hate to be the one to break the bad news, but you can't just eat strawberries! You MUST put them on top of something, like cheesecake or shortcake. Of course, I get it, this study is really equating the consumption of cheesecake with good memory. I knew I was storing up on that food source for a reason.

I wonder if they realize that cheesecake is also associated with increased coronary disease, obesity, and sugar addiction? Maybe that is what is meant by taking the good with the bad.
