The Role of Lifestyle Behaviors on 20-Year Cognitive Decline by D. Cadar, H. Pikhart, G. Mishra, A. Stephen, D. Kuh, M. Richards

“…Results showed that healthy dietary choice and physical activity were associated, respectively, with slower memory and visual search speed decline over 20 years, with evidence that increasing physical activity was important. Adopting positive health behaviors from early midlife may be beneficial in reducing the rate of cognitive decline and ultimately reducing the risk of dementia.…”
