A recent study published in the journal Nature Communications has identified three potential risk factors known to contribute to brain aging: poor diet, lack of exercise, and exposure to air pollution. These factors have a significant impact on the brain’s health and its aging process, highlighting the importance of making informed lifestyle and environmental choices to protect cognitive well being. By understanding these risk elements, the researchers believe we can better strategize preventative measures in slowing down cognitive decline.
