Reduced Deep and REM Sleep Linked to Brain Shrinkage in Alzheimer’s-Prone Areas, Study Finds
A long-term study of 270 middle-aged and older adults found that participants who spent less time in slow wave (deep) sleep and REM sleep showed greater shrinkage in brain regions vulnerable to early Alzheimer’s disease, according to a report published in a peer-reviewed journal. Researchers followed the participants for 13 to 17 years, comparing baseline […]

Long-Term High BMI Linked to Faster Cognitive Decline, 24-Year Study Finds
A 24-year study of more than 8,200 adults has found that sustained high body mass index (BMI) is associated with faster declines in memory, thinking, and reasoning skills. Researchers used a cumulative average BMI across the entire study period rather than a single measurement, a method that revealed stronger associations than snapshot readings, according to […]
