Metabolic Health and Cognition

Meaning

The established and clinically significant interdependence between the efficiency of the body’s metabolic processes and the integrity of cognitive functions, including memory, attention, and executive processing. Optimal metabolic health, characterized by stable glucose regulation and insulin sensitivity, is directly correlated with reduced risk of age-related cognitive decline. This connection underscores the brain’s reliance on stable energy supply and minimal inflammatory burden.
