Eating more plants linked to lower risk of dementia, even in older age

A new study found that eating a high-quality plant-rich diet can lower the risk of dementia, even when started in older age. The study, which included nearly 93,000 people, found that those who ate the healthiest plant-based foods had a 7% lower risk of dementia compared to those who ate the least.

A recent study published in the journal Neurology found a link between a plant-rich diet and lower risk of dementia. The study included 93,000 people with an average age of 59. Participants who ate a high-quality plant-based diet had a lower risk of dementia. The diet included whole grains, fruits, and vegetables. Those who ate more unhealthy plant-based options had a higher risk of dementia. The study found that it's never too late to start eating healthy to lower the risk of dementia.
