According to a 2008 study, vegeterians are six times more likely to suffer from brain shrinkage than meat eaters.
The link was discovered after scientist at Oxford University ran brain scans on 107 people between the ages of 61 and 87, and then retested them five years later.
Researchers speculate the loss of brain mass in vegeterian is due to a deficiency of vitamin B12, which is found in meat,fish and eggs This type of brain atrophy is linked to Alzheimer's dicease and other cognitive failings.
What do you guys think, is it true or false?
