Fried Food may Raise Risk of Your Health

A U.S.- based study team analyzed diet and disease data collected from more than 100,000 men and women. Compared to people who ate fried food less than once a week, those who gobbled things like fries, fried chicken, or other deep-fried snacks four to six times a week saw their risk for Type 2 diabetes and coronary heart disease jump 39% and 23%, respectively. The risks rose even more for people who ate fried food on a daily basis.

Diabetes is Not Good for Brain

New research indicates, people with type 2 diabetes may lose more brain volume than is expected as they age. Diabetes affects the brain by causing damage to blood vessels and brain-cell degeneration. The findings of research (Conducted at University of Pennsylvania’s Perleman School of Medicine in Philadelphia) links diabetes directly to brain atrophy, underscoring the importance of primary prevention and early management of diabetes in reducing the burden of dementia, particularly in older population.
