Obesity accelerates the rise of Alzheimer's related blood biomarkers far more rapidly than previously recognized.
Long term imaging and plasma data show that obese individuals experience much faster increases in proteins linked to neuro degeneration.
Surprisingly, blood tests detect these changes earlier than PET scans.
The result points to obesity as a major contributor to Alzheimer's progression.
Guess you have one more reason to avoid developing obesity.
