“High cumulative BMI is detrimental to brain health, especially for younger adults under 45 years, where it corresponds to approximately 12 years of brain aging,”
“Maintaining a BMI below 26.2 kg/m² is suggested for better brain health.”
“This research provides crucial insights into the relationship between BMI and brain health, emphasizing the need for public health strategies to control BMI for better neurological outcomes,”
“Future studies should focus on acquiring longitudinal neuroimaging data to further explore these associations.”
