In a groundbreaking study led by researchers at UC San Francisco and Kaiser Permanente Washington, a novel approach to mitigating memory loss in higher-risk older adults has emerged. The research, spanning two years and involving 172 participants, unveils the significant impact of personalized health and lifestyle changes on cognitive well-being. Those who received guidance in areas associated with Alzheimer's risk, such as uncontrolled diabetes and physical inactivity, experienced a remarkable 74% improvement in cognitive testing compared to the non-intervention group.

Aging is a natural part of life, and with it often comes concerns about declining health, particularly in relation to brain health and memory. While we can't halt the aging process, we do have some control over how well our bodies function as we age. Brain health, memory issues, Alzheimer's, and dementia are common health challenges that older individuals face. The good news is that dietary choices can play a significant role in mitigating these concerns, and this becomes especially important as we reach the age of 50.

Alzheimer's disease poses a significant threat to quality of life, and while a definitive cure remains elusive, researchers are actively seeking ways to mitigate its symptoms and explore preventive measures. A recent study by Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH)-led research team, sheds light on the potential role of exercise in preventing Alzheimer's disease through the production of a hormone called irisin.

Which diet is the biggest risk factor for developing Alzheimer's? A new review of 38 previous studies from the last five years identifies the Western diet pattern as a risk factor for developing Alzheimer's. Meanwhile, it also said that the Mediterranean diet, ketogenic diet, and diet supplementation with omega-3 fatty acids and probiotics protect against the disease.
