These factors include regular physical activity, eating a healthy diet, and keeping your brain active through lifelong learning. In addition, the Mediterranean diet has been associated with a reduced risk of dementia and Alzheimer's disease. And this is where it gets interesting. According to recent research, Dr. Hulme says that while these studies are still preliminary, there does seem some evidence for an association between vegetarian diets and reducing age-related cognitive decline. This suggests in effect that certain vegetables may reduce inflammation throughout our bodies which ultimately could help us fight against aging processes like neurodegenerative diseases. That said – when you add all of those pieces together on top what we can see from science right now seems pretty damning too.
