A recent study from the University of Georgia indicates that higher body mass index (BMI) may accelerate cognitive decline in older adults. The research, which monitored over 8,200 adults for 24 years, found a consistent relationship between weight and cognitive health. Each increase in BMI was linked to a faster decline in memory and cognitive functions. Maintaining weight could potentially slow cognitive decline, with benefits observable in just two years. The study highlights the importance of managing weight as a modifiable risk factor for healthy aging, especially as dementia rates rise.
