the beginning of the study<br />

and then every four years for<br />

20 years.<br />

“One of the most important<br />

factors in this study is<br />

that we were able to research<br />

and track such a large group<br />

of men over a 20-year period<br />

of time, allowing for very<br />

telling results. Our studies<br />

provide further evidence<br />

dietary choices can be<br />

important to maintain your<br />

brain health,” said study<br />

author Changzheng Yuan,<br />

ScD, of Harvard T.H. Chan<br />

School of Public Health in<br />

Boston.<br />

Participants also took<br />

subjective tests of their<br />

thinking and memory skills<br />

at least four years before the<br />

end of the study, when they<br />

were an average age of 73.<br />

The test is designed to detect<br />

changes that people can<br />

notice in how well they are<br />

remembering things before<br />

those changes would be<br />

detected by objective cognitive<br />

tests. Changes in memory<br />

reported by the participants<br />

would be considered<br />

precursors to mild cognitive<br />

impairment. The questions<br />

included: “Do you have<br />

more trouble than usual<br />

remembering a short list of<br />

items, such as a shopping<br />

list?” and “Do you have<br />

more trouble than usual following<br />

a group conversation<br />

or a plot in a TV program<br />

due to your memory?”<br />

A total of 55% of the<br />

participants had good<br />

thinking and memory<br />

skills, 38% had moderate<br />

skills, and 7% had poor<br />

thinking and memory skills.<br />

The participants were divided<br />

into five groups based on<br />

their fruit and vegetable<br />

consumption.<br />
