Alzheimer's Risk Reduced By Daily Fruit Intake Study

Researchers at California's Loma Linda University found that eating one egg daily for at least five days a week reduces Alzheimer's risk by up to 27%. The study, published in the Journal of Nutrition, suggests eggs support brain health. The American Egg Board provided some funding for the research. Research indicates that a simple dietary habit of frequently consuming eggs can significantly aid in dementia prevention. Individuals who regularly eat eggs showed up to a 27% reduced risk of developing dementia compared to those who do not. Researchers discovered that consuming potatoes 1-3 times a month reduces the risk of Alzheimer's by 10%. Eating potatoes 2-4 times a week further reduces the risk by 20%. A new study published in the Journal of Nutrition found that egg consumption is associated with a lower risk of Alzheimer's disease for seniors aged 65 and older.
