New York: A new study reveals that eating fish may keep the brain healthy and reduce the risk of Alzheimer’s disease.
In the study, people who ate baked or broiled fish at least once a week had larger volumes of gray matter in areas of the brain known to be involved in memory and learning.
Moreover, people with larger volumes in these areas reduced the risk of developing Alzheimer’s disease five-fold over a five year period.
The findings suggest lifestyle choices can ward off Alzheimer’s disease, said study researcher Dr. Cyrus Raji, of the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine.
While other research has linked fish consumption to a lower risk of Alzheimer’s disease, the study is the first to examine the effect of eating fish on the actual structure of the brain, Raji said.
Report further said that even after five tears from that time, it was found that there was an escalated risk of Alzheimer’s or MCI in nearly 31% of those who were not regular takers of fish. This result added weight to the earlier assumptions that fish is necessary for keeping the risk of Alzheimer’s at bay.
