Portal tells about three eating habits of people that lead to dementia.
According to statistics, 35% of cases of dementia in the elderly are caused by their lifestyle, including unhealthy eating habits, writes InoSMI. High-carbohydrate meals increase the body's resistance to insulin and reduce glucose metabolism, which leads to the development of inflammation that impairs brain function.
Eating foods that are too salty also increases the risk of dementia. By irritating the mucous membrane of the stomach, salt causes the development of many diseases, including dementia.
In turn, foods containing aluminum have a toxic effect on the body, preventing it from absorbing calcium, iron, zinc and other elements also increasing the risk of dementia.
To avoid a dangerous disease in the future, you need to eat right, and sleep 7-9 hours a day. And of course, give up nicotine and alcohol.
