Lower Dementia Risk with Dietary Fiber!

Eating a high-fiber diet, especially one rich in soluble fiber, is linked to a lower risk of incident disabling dementia, new research shows. Investigators administered a dietary survey to 3700 healthy adults at midlife+ and then followed them for up to 20 years.
