Overeating linked to memory loss!


People over 70 eating more than 2,100 calories per day, have nearly double the risk of memory loss, or mild cognitive impairment (MCI), according to a study released in the American Academy of Neurology's 64th Annual Meeting. Researchers said that the higher the amount of calories consumed each day, the higher the risk of MCI. They recommend cutting calories and eating foods that make up a healthy diet may be a simpler way to prevent memory loss as we age.
