Red meat blamed for increased cognitive decline in study
- Eating greater amounts of red meat, especially processed bacon, sausage, and bologna, increases the likelihood of cognitive decline and dementia, a new study suggests.
- Participants who consumed an average of 0.25 serving or more per day of processed red meat had a 14% higher risk of subjective cognitive decline compared to those who ate fewer than 0.10 serving per day.
- People who ingested one or more servings of unprocessed red meat per day had a 16% higher risk of subjective cognitive decline compared to those who had less than a half-serving per day.
- Replacing red meat with plant-based protein sources was associated with a 19% lower risk of dementia and 1.37 fewer years of cognitive aging, according to the study.
