A new study conducted by the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health has found that daily consumption of olive oil may significantly reduce the chances of developing dementia. The research, which analyzed data from over 60,000 women and 31,000 men in health databases, revealed that those who consumed at least 7g of olive oil daily were 28% less likely to die from dementia-related causes.
The study highlights the potential benefits of incorporating olive oil into one’s diet, particularly within the context of the Mediterranean diet. People who consumed olive oil on a daily basis often replaced butter, mayonnaise, and other oils in their diet, which may have contributed to the reduction in dementia rates. The emphasis on olive oil in the diet is believed to reduce inflammation and lower the risk of developing dementia.
Published in the JAMA Network Open and credited to Science X Network, the findings suggest that regularly consuming olive oil may have positive effects on overall brain health. However, more research is needed to fully understand the impact of olive oil on dementia prevention.
Overall, this study sheds light on the potential health benefits of incorporating olive oil into one’s daily routine. As the scientific community continues to explore the relationship between diet and brain health, the findings of this study offer promising insights into the role of olive oil in reducing the risk of developing dementia.
