These researchers found more protection from vegetables (especially leaves) than fruits. There was significant protection from only 2.8 servings of vegetables per day. I don't think they separated cooked from raw, however. [www.cbsnews.com] I didn't read the study yet (published in the Journal Neurology), it isn't even indexed in medline yet, too new, but if I get a chance to read it I will provide some details.

Date: October 25, 2006 01:20PM Jose, I think we have already mentioned this, but I am not sure. It's another pro-leaf paper.
check out this [cebp.aacrjournals.org] and this: [cebp.aacrjournals.org] the heaviest loaded factors in the most protective diet in descending order: Leaf vegetables—raw 0.78 Mixed vegetables in salad 0.72 Tomatoes—raw 0.71 Carrots—raw 0.51 Olive oil 0.46 Leaf vegetables—cooked 0.3 Other fruiting vegetables 0.3 Fruit 0.23 Sorry, only registered users may post in this forum.
