A diet including avocado improves the ability to focus in overweight adults, say researchers. For the findings, researchers conducted a 12-week study of daily meals to 84 overweight or obesity adults. “Previous work has shown that overweight and obese adults are at a higher risk for cognitive decline and dementia in older age,” the study said.
