Further research study is needed to completely comprehend the underlying mechanisms.A much healthier diet plan is associated with a minimized dementia danger and slower rate of aging, according to a new study at Columbia University Mailman School of Public Health and The Robert Butler Columbia Aging.”Our findings suggest that a slower speed of aging moderates part of the relationship of healthy diet with reduced dementia threat, and therefore, keeping track of the pace of aging may inform dementia prevention,” stated very first author Aline Thomas, Ph.D., a Postdoc at the Columbia Department of Neurology and Taub Institute for Research on Alzheimers Disease and the Aging Brain.”We recommend that extra observational research studies be carried out to investigate direct associations of nutrients with brain aging, and if our observations are likewise confirmed in more varied populations, monitoring biological aging, may indeed, inform dementia avoidance,” kept in mind Belsky.Reference: “Diet, Pace of Biological Aging, and Risk of Dementia in the Framingham Heart Study” by Aline Thomas, Calen P.
