Scientists witness patients’ brains ‘de-aging’ after changing their diet
New research suggests that switching to a diet rich in fresh vegetables and low on processed foods can do wonders for the biological age of your brain.
The international team of researchers that conducted the study found that a Mediterranean-style diet high in vegetables, seafood and whole grains can slow down the signs of brain aging, which are typically associated with obesity, even if you lose just 1 percent of your body weight.
The brain scans after 18 months revealed that the participants’ brain ages were almost 9 months younger than what was expected based on their estimated chronological brain age.
