Middle-aged adults with visceral fat in the belly may face an increased risk of developing Alzheimer’s, according to a study presented at the Radiological Society of North America. The research suggests that changes in the brain associated with Alzheimer’s could occur up to 15 years before symptoms appear. Assessing visceral fat may aid early detection, and strategies like aerobic exercise could help reduce the risk. The study also points to the need for further research on the impact of drugs like Ozempic on visceral fat and brain health.
