When older adults consume high quantities of processed foods, their cognitive behaviour is affected, finds a new study

Highly processed foods harm memory in the aging brain, finds new study

A new study has found that older adults who consume a lot of processed foods like chips, pizza and fries have the risk of developing cognitive disorders, including Alzheimer's disease. 

Chips ‘n’ Dips may be costing your adult brain more than you think!

A new study implicates that when older adults consume high quantities of processed foods, their cognitive functions get affected.

A new study implicates that when older adults consume high quantities of processed foods, their cognitive functions get affected. The study, published in the journal&nbsp;Brain, Behavior, and Immunity, observed aging rats on a diet of highly processed foods for four weeks.
The result showed a strong inflammatory response in their brains accompanied by behavioral signs of memory loss. Researchers also found that supplementing the processed diet with the omega-3 fatty acid DHA prevented memory problems and reduced the inflammatory effects almost entirely in older rats. On the other hand, when younger rats were exposed to a similar diet, cognitive problems did not appear.

The study diet mimicked ready-to-eat human foods that are often packaged for long shelf life, such as potato chips and other snacks, frozen entrees like pasta dishes and pizzas, and deli meats containing preservatives.
Highly processed diets are also associated with obesity and type 2 diabetes. These findings indicate that consumption of a processed diet can produce significant and abrupt memory deficits and in the aging population, rapid memory decline can lead to Alzheimer's disease.
Therefore, it is important to limit processed foods intake and increase consumption of foods that are rich in omega-3 fatty acid DHA&nbsp;to control the progression of cognitive disorders with growing age.

People who followed the MIND diet moderately later in life did not have cognition problems, found the study published in the Journal of Alzheimer's Disease. 

Researchers link MIND diet with better cognitive performance 

Researchers have found that the MIND diet may protect older adults from ageing-related cognitive decline.

Researchers&nbsp;have found that the MIND diet may protect older adults from ageing-related cognitive decline.&nbsp;

The natural process of ageing&nbsp;doesn&rsquo;t just&nbsp;take a toll on&nbsp;our&nbsp;body but&nbsp;it impacts&nbsp;the&nbsp;brain&nbsp;as well.&nbsp;Sometimes,&nbsp;abnormal clumps of proteins that&nbsp;can be&nbsp;a&nbsp;marker&nbsp;of Alzheimer&rsquo;s disease take form in the ageing brain.&nbsp;But new research shows&nbsp;there may be a way to protect yourself.&nbsp;
Researchers&nbsp;have found that&nbsp;older adults may benefit from a specific diet called the MIND diet even when they develop these protein deposits. These deposits in the brain typically interfere with thinking and problem-solving skills.&nbsp;

People&nbsp;who&nbsp;followed the MIND diet moderately later in life did&nbsp;not have cognition problems, found the&nbsp;study&nbsp;published&nbsp;in the Journal of Alzheimer's Disease.&nbsp;
The MIND diet is a combination of the&nbsp;Mediterranean and DASH (Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension) diet. As part of the diet, a person&nbsp;in the study&nbsp;must&nbsp;eat at least three servings of whole grains, a green leafy vegetable and one other vegetable every day -- along with a glass of wine.
They would&nbsp;snack most days on nuts, have beans every other day or so, eat poultry and berries at least twice a week and fish at least once a week.&nbsp;Adhering to the diet also meant&nbsp;limiting&nbsp;the intake of unhealthy foods&nbsp;defined as red meat, butter and stick margarine, cheese, pastries and sweets, and fried or fast food.&nbsp;
Researchers explained that the diet seemed to protect against decline and may contribute to cognitive resilience in the elderly. In fact, a&nbsp;higher MIND diet score was&nbsp;linked with better memory and thinking skills independently of Alzheimer's disease pathology and other common age-related brain pathologies.&nbsp;

As many as 90 per cent of people suffering from dementia are never diagnosed in low- and middle-income countries. 

75% of dementia cases go undiagnosed, scientists develop novel tool to help 

Globally, 75 per cent of dementia cases go undiagnosed largely due to&nbsp;stigma and lack of awareness.

As many as 90 per cent of people suffering from dementia are&nbsp;never diagnosed in&nbsp;some countries, finds a new report by Alzheimer&rsquo;s Disease International (ADI). Globally, almost 75 per cent of dementia cases go undiagnosed largely due to&nbsp;stigma and lack of awareness.
With more than 55 million living with the illness&nbsp;worldwide&nbsp;and 41 million being unaware, low diagnosis rates of dementia have always been a problem but the new figures&nbsp;reveal the&nbsp;sheer&nbsp;scale of the crisis.

Experts say people who don&rsquo;t receive a diagnosis face added stress,&nbsp;confusion and are left vulnerable to the effects of their condition.&nbsp;
Apart from stigma, the high cost of tests&nbsp;makes them&nbsp;inaccessible&nbsp;to&nbsp;many communities.&nbsp;Looking to&nbsp;combat this, researchers have developed a two-minute computer test that could enable Alzheimer&rsquo;s disease to be diagnosed up to five years earlier than by current methods.&nbsp;
Alzheimer&rsquo;s is the underlying cause of approximately 60% of the cases of dementia.&nbsp;
Publishing&nbsp;the research&nbsp;in the journal&nbsp;BRAIN, the team says the&nbsp;Fastball&nbsp;EEG test could help detect the illness&nbsp;in early stages where behavioural performance deficits are not yet evident.&nbsp;

World Alzheimer's&nbsp;Day 2021: Observed on 21st September every year,&nbsp;World Alzheimer's&nbsp;Day aims at raising awareness around the warning signs of dementia.&nbsp;

World Alzheimer's Day 2021: According to the World Health Organisation there are currently 55 million people living with dementia the world over. And there are nearly 10 million cases each year. Out of this, Alzheimer's&nbsp;is the most common form of dementia and it constitutes&nbsp;60-70% of cases. Yet people continue to remain unaware of this ailment.&nbsp;
World Alzheimer's&nbsp;Day is observed on 21st September every year. This year the day aims at raising awareness around the warning signs of dementia and also encourage people to seek help and support.&nbsp;
Known to be a progressive condition, the symptoms develop slowly over the years only to get severe. As per NHS, UK, the build-up of proteins in and around brain cells is thought to be the cause of <a href="https://www.editorji.com/story/alzheimer-s-disease-deep-sleep-scientists-have-found-a-link-1624351751143" target="_blank">Alzheimer's disease</a>.
NHS, UK, also highlighted that the first sign is usually minor memory problems, ranging from forgetting about recent conversations and names of people. Over a period of time, further symptoms can develop, such as&nbsp;confusion, disorientation and getting lost in familiar places, problems with speech and language, personality changes,&nbsp;hallucinations and delusions.&nbsp;

Alzheimer’s disease & deep sleep: Scientists have found a link!

If you&rsquo;ve been neglecting good sleep for other trivial activities, this&nbsp;research will make you rethink your priorities.&nbsp;While there&rsquo;s no dearth of the merits of deep sleep, scientists&nbsp;have even found&nbsp;evidence&nbsp;that a lack of deep sleep may increase the risk of Alzheimer's disease.&nbsp;&nbsp;
A study published in PLOS Biology suggested that deep sleep actually helps clear&nbsp;toxic proteins related to Alzheimer&rsquo;s disease from the brain.&nbsp;&nbsp;
The clearance activity was found to be&nbsp;weaker in the brains of people who had a higher risk of cognitive decline, said scientists.&nbsp;&nbsp;
The 2021 study of over 118 participants adds to a growing body of evidence confirming the relationship between sleep and brain health.&nbsp;In particular, we are now learning that&nbsp;an absence of&nbsp;deep sleep may have a significant relationship with the onset of dementia and Alzheimer&rsquo;s disease.&nbsp;&nbsp;
As an easy self-check, experts say that if you often wake up feeling exhausted, it may be a sign that you&rsquo;re not getting the right&nbsp;amount&nbsp;of deep sleep.&nbsp;&nbsp;
