Researchers found that overweight and obese people have the brains of four to eight times lower than those of normal weight.

"This is because blood can not easily reach the brain cells die, and the effect is premature aging of the brain. A person loses an average of 0.5% annually in the brain. but Obese people lose up to 8% of brain so 16 years older. This does not kill you, but it is noticeable. Areas affected by decreasing the brain responsible for reasoning and processing of long-term memories ", says Paul Thompson.
