5. Over-eating
Over-eating leads to excess weight, often to obesity. And we’re not talking about splurging on kale.
Often when someone eats more than is necessary, the food that’s taken in is lacking in nutrition; the body remains hungry because it’s not getting what it needs in the form of nutrition and so we eat more.
Nutrient-poor foods do not optimize brain performance. In addition, chronic obesity has been directly associated with low brain volume and dementia.
