Eat green leafy vegetables every day, or delay brain aging for 11 years

Guide

Look at the "carnivores" who don't like to eat vegetables. Your habits are better to change! A new study says that eating a green leafy vegetable every day may delay brain aging for 11 years!

On December 20th, in a study published in Neurology, a team of scientists from the University of Rush in the United States found that when cognitive ability naturally declines with age, eat a green leafy vegetable every day. Of leafy green vegetables a day) may help to preserve memory and thinking skills.

Assess the frequency of eating green leafy vegetables

This study recruited volunteers who had previously participated in the Rush Memory and Aging Project. The project added a "food frequency questionnaire" between 2004 and 2013. Statistics show that 1,068 participants completed the survey, and 960 of these people also received at least two cognitive assessments to analyze their cognitive changes.

The new study involved 960 participants, and at the start of the study, their average age was 81 years and there was no dementia. The researchers tested their thinking and memory skills annually, with an average follow-up of 4.7 years. Participants also completed a food frequency questionnaire to assess the frequency and number of spinach, kale (kale/collards/greens) or lettuce (lettuce/salad).

Finally, based on the frequency of eating green leafy vegetables, the researchers divided the participants into five groups and compared the cognitive assessments of the most consumed group (about 1.3 per day on average) and the least group (about 0.1 per day on average).

Equivalent to 11 years younger

The results showed that, overall, participants' thinking and memory ability test scores decreased at a rate of 0.08 standard units per year. During follow-up, the rate of decline in participants who consumed the most green leafy vegetables was 0.05 standard units per year (0.05 standardized units per year). The researchers said that the difference is equivalent to being 11 years younger in age.

The findings are still valid after considering other factors that may affect brain health, such as seafood, alcohol consumption, smoking, high blood pressure, obesity, education levels, physical activity, and number of cognitive activities.

More research is needed

Martha Clare Morris, a nutrition epidemiologist who led the study, said: "Adding green leafy vegetables to your diet every day may be a simple way to help promote brain health. Although this research does not directly prove that eating green leaf sauerkraut can delay brain aging. , but it does show the connection between the two."

However, it is worth noting that this study focuses on the elderly and whites. Therefore, the findings may not be applicable to young adults and people of other races. Scientists say the results need to be validated in different populations by randomized trials to establish a causal relationship between “eat green leafy vegetables” and “reduced cognitive decline”.

Transparent Sticker

Transparent Sticker is one of plastic Lable sticker , the material is PVC sticker, PED sticker, has non-flammability, high strength, weather resistance and excellent geometric stability, and has strong resistance to oxidants, reducing agents and strong acids. In addition, due to its good flexibility, shrinkage and opacity, good processing and labeling performance, strong chemical resistance, strong and durable, it is suitable for long-term outdoor use.


transparent labels with important properties such as water, oil and chemical resistance. It is used for toilet products, cosmetics, electrical products, and is especially suitable for information labels for high temperature products.


Self-adhesive labels are very popular in this field, not only because they can be pasted, printed, and designed, but more importantly, electronic products need to use labels to achieve some specific effects. For example, the label has a strong texture and can work well with electrical appliances, or the label can resist corrosion and high temperature in the external environment.
