Title: Belly Fat Linked to Brain Shrinkage
Post by: Lartinos on May 05, 2026, 03:30:23 PM
“ A large study found that people who reduced and sustained lower levels of deep belly fat showed measurably slower brain shrinkage and better memory and thinking scores years later.
Carrying the APOE gene variant, the strongest known genetic risk factor for Alzheimer’s disease, did not change the relationship between visceral fat and brain shrinkage, suggesting the effect operates independently of inherited Alzheimer’s risk.
General weight loss, measured by BMI, did not show the same brain-protective pattern. It was specifically visceral fat, the kind packed around internal organs, that drove the association with brain health.”

Alzheimer's Disease Facts and Figures

More than 7 million Americans are living with Alzheimer's. By 2050, this number is projected to rise to nearly 13 million.

1 in 3 older adults dies with Alzheimer's or another dementia. It kills more than breast cancer and prostate cancer combined.

Health and long-term care costs for people living with dementia are projected to reach $409 billion in 2026 and nearly $1 trillion in 2050.

The lifetime risk for Alzheimer's at age 45 is 1 in 5 for women and 1 in 10 for men.

Nearly 13 million Americans provide unpaid care for people with Alzheimer's or other dementias.
