A plant-based diet is linked to a 14% lower risk of cognitive decline, according to a new study.
A team from the University of Edinburgh analysed the eating habits of over 100,000 people aged 50-80 and found that those who adhered most closely to a Mediterranean or DASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) diet had the lowest risk of cognitive decline.
The Mediterranean diet is rich in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, fish and olive oil, while DASH promotes whole grains, lean proteins and vegetables.
