The way our brain ages isn’t similar to how the body does. Gray hair and wrinkles are easily spotted, but the changes inside the brain or say, aging of the brain isn’t noticeable until, years later, its symptoms start to show. When the process of brain aging accelerates, it can lead to more than just memory lapses. It also increases the risks of cognitive decline, slower reaction times and dementia, and ultimately impacts independence and overall-quality of life. The food we eat doesn’t only affect our physical health. Lack of nutrition is a major cause of brain aging. While cognitive decline is a natural part of growing old, research shows that poor nutrition can speed up the process. The good news is, nutrients can be replenished through smart eating and can essentially slow down the brain aging process. Here we mention 6 common nutrient deficiencies that are making your brain age faster. (Image credits: Canva)
