Research reveals a correlation between the temporal patterns of energy intake and cognitive function in middle-aged and older adults. The study found that compared to those with an “evenly-distributed” pattern of energy intake, individuals with unbalanced TPEIs, particularly those skipping breakfast, had significantly lower cognitive function scores over a ten-year period.
Globally, there are approximately 55 million people who suffer from dementia, and the incidence of the disease has steadily increased. This population is expected to triple by 2050, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. Dementia affects not only the quality of life of individuals, but also adds significant economic burdens to families and society.
Previous studies in animal models have shown that the disruption in meal timing can cause alterations in clock rhythms in the hippocampus, thereby affecting cognitive function. According to a short-term intervention trial of 96 young adults, dividing equal amounts of food into four meals between 9 am and 3 pm could improve cognitive function compared to eating twice between 9 am and 3 pm. However, long-term study is lacking about the TPEIs and cognitive function.
entitled “Temporal patterns of energy intake and cognitive function and its decline: a community-based cohort study in China” Based on the China Nutrition Health Survery public database, a total of 3,342 participants were included in this study, who were middle-aged and older adults from nine provinces in China with a baseline age ≥ 55 years.
