Another Harmful Effects Of Eating Meat?

Mental Health: Food for thought?

Not only is a meat and dairy diet a risk factor for cardiovascular disease, studies have actually shown that elevated levels of cholesterol can affect mental health. One study revealed that elevated levels of cholesterol are a significant factor in mild cognitive impairment.

Diet also plays a significant role in the development of Alzheimer’s disease: Consuming large amounts of partially hydrogenated fats increases the risk of Alzheimer’s by almost 2.5 times.

Another study revealed that eating meat increased the diseases associated with Metabolic Syndrome,

characterized by high insulin levels, which may also trigger Alzheimer’s disease.
