6. Stay mentally sharp
As you get older, mental function often decreases. The response time to the stimuli becomes longer, and the short-term memory is compromised. This is known as an age-related cognitive decline and, in severe cases, can progress to Alzheimer’s disease. For some reason, we do not quite understand yet. people who consume a lot of fish have a lower rate of cognitive decline. This can be related to the amount of grey matter found in our brain.
Grey matter is the inner functional tissue that contains neurons to process information and store memories. The more, the better, and people who consume fish regularly seem to have more grey matter in the areas of the brain that regulate the mind, memory, and emotions.
