A Dutch study revealed that eating 60 grams of roasted, unsalted peanuts daily can improve memory and brain vascular function in elderly people.
Benefits of eating peanuts
According to what was published by The Sun website, a study showed that eating peanuts enhances memory, as memory decline in the elderly is one of the most prominent health challenges associated with aging, and the brain’s ability to process and store information begins to gradually decline as a result of the decline in blood flow to the nerve cells and the decrease in their flexibility, and this deterioration is often linked to the weakness of the small blood vessels within the brain; This leads to a decreased supply of oxygen and vital nutrients.
Decreased blood flow in the brain is one of the factors that increases the risk of cognitive impairment and dementia with age.
Alzheimer’s International estimates that the number of people with dementia around the world may reach 78 million by 2030, and 139 million by 2050.
