Study: Plant-rich diet can lower risk for dementia

A new study in the journal “Neurology” says a change in diet can help fight off dementia.

Researchers say even if you are in your late 50s and 60s, switching to a plant-rich diet has this benefit.

Over a decade — people in the study who cut back on unhealthy foods saw about an 11% drop in dementia risk.

But not all plant-based diets are equal.

Diets high in refined grains, added sugars and ultra-processed foods were linked to a higher risk of cognitive decline. Instead,
you should focus on whole grains, fruits, vegetables and nuts.
