The Risk Of Alzheimer's Disease May Be Reduced By Fruit Consumption

Setting up the "gimme more money for research so I can live better because it is all about me" process.
"Apples, bananas, and oranges are the most common fruits in both Western and Asian diets, and are important sources of vitamins, minerals, and fiber. A new study in the Journal of Food Science explores the additional health benefits of these fruits and reveals they also protect against neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's Disease...

The authors concluded '[their] study demonstrated that antioxidants in the major fresh fruits consumed in the United States and Korea protected neuronal cells from oxidative stress….Additional consumption of fresh fruits such as apple, banana, and orange may be beneficial to improve effects in neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's.'"
Clearly, there is nothing here that even approaches an exploration of "the additional health benefits of these fruits and reveals they also protect against neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's Disease."

It is all speculation and hype.

And as to the benefits of consuming more antioxidants...
