Have you had a specialty coffee drink today? Maybe a muffin to go along with it? If so, you've consumed at least 500 calories and almost none of them contain any nutrients. Plan on being hungry, tired, or headache-y later today.

What can you do that's better for you and also delicious?
A cup of fresh berries, an egg and a slice of whole grain bread with plain old coffee instead of a specialty drink. Or many other nutrient rich choices.

Plus, you'll save some money and while not eating ultra processed foods.

Can you do that? If so, you'll be getting antioxidants to protect you, protein and other nutrients to build you and fiber to keep the systems rolling.

Proton Pump Inhibitors

Conflicting evidence has also been reported about proton pump inhibitors, which are often used to treat acid reflux. Some studies found they increased the risk of dementia, while other research did not.

It’s unclear why drugs that act on stomach acid would affect the brain. One theory is that they can cause a deficiency in vitamin B12, which is linked to cognitive impairment.

It’s also possible that the connection is an artifact of incomplete data. Some proton pump inhibitors, like Prilosec, are purchased over the counter, so their use can be more difficult to track and analyze than prescription medications.
