Übergewicht führt zu einer gefäßbedingten Demenz. Forscher im Vereinigten Königreich und in Dänemark analysierten Daten von mehr als 500.000 Teilnehmern in beiden Ländern und fanden heraus, dass ein höherer Body-Mass-Index (BMI) die Wahrscheinlichkeit einer vaskulären Demenz direkt erhöht.

Being overweight significantly increases the risk of developing vascular dementia, according to a large new study.
Obesity has long been linked to a higher risk of vascular-related dementia, a progressive brain disease that causes nerve cell damage.
However, it has been unclear, until now, whether excess weight directly drives the disease or simply reflects other underlying health problems that increase dementia risk.
Researchers in the United Kingdom and Denmark analysed data from more than 500,000 participants in the two countries and found that a higher body mass index (BMI) directly raises the likelihood of vascular-related dementia.
Vascular-related dementia is the second most common form of dementia after Alzheimer**’**s disease, according to the Alzheimer’s Society in the UK, and is caused by reduced blood flow to the brain.

Yeh no benefit to being fat and being fat is bad.
Any argument for being fat is just cope and delusion.
Man. Not even obese, just overweight.
Bmi does not equal body fat percentage. Very healthy people can have high BMI. Are there similar vascular risks to very fit people with high BMI (aside the ones obviously on steroids)
