Obiceiul de seară care ar putea încetini declinul memoriei după 50 de ani. Cercetătorii spun că nu contează doar ce mănânci, ci și la ce oră

A pilot study suggests that not only diet but also meal timing may impact brain health as we age. Conducted by Rutgers University, the research involved 47 overweight women aged 50-79. Participants followed a calorie-restricted diet for six months, with half eating within a 9-hour window. Results showed that those with a shorter eating window had better cognitive test scores, indicating potential benefits for memory and problem-solving skills. Researchers propose that meal timing may influence metabolic processes and inflammation, which are linked to cognitive function. While the findings are preliminary, they suggest lifestyle changes could help prevent dementia.
