The Brain of overweight People 10 Years Older

A study conducted by magnetic resonance of universities “shows this Cambridge” and “Yale”, published in the scientific magazine “Neurobiology of Aging”, transmits Online Economy.

The brain scans of 246 people with normal weight and 227 others obese or overweight between 20 and 87 years have been identified since the age of 37 when the volume of nervous fiber starts, the white substance of the second comes out easier than the first.

The difference is maximum at 40 and then stabilises, with a ten-year break of older age for obesity.

This conclusion is reached based on images. However, certain accuracy is necessary.

The reduction of the white substance has not led to any decline in the brain's cognitive function for overweight persons, where the intelligence cofficient resulted in the same line as that of weak individuals.

Moreover, it is difficult to understand whether the lower volume of nervous fibers is caused by the addition of BMI, whether it is the cause, or whether they both have a common origin.

However, the study is limited to not following patients over time because “photographs” only the current situation, writes Albania. Even the use of BMI can hide unexpectedly, because it does not calculate muscle mass, different from body fat.

Now the relationship of this direct relationship with the beginning of brain disease will have to be clarified.
