After reading that article I wanted to discuss it but I don't remember what the report was about?

"Memory decline was even more significant if the chili lovers were slim."
 
Phew, looks like I dodged a bullet!

As Nike says:  Life's short, play hard. 
 
At least I think that was Nike - don't really remember.

Whats the best way to deter people from eating something healthy ? Report that its bad and let Social Media do the rest.

Whomever wrote that article is a nincompoop.
 
Same same for the quack witch doctor.
 
That supposedly did the "research".
 
I was writing better reports than that.
 
When I was a 5th grader.
 
I submit that the "research".
 
Has no basis in fact whatsoever.

I read this, and remember thinking that it must be complete bullshit. (and also wondering how long it would take someone on THP to pick it up)  Why, specifically, is the dementia greater in those who are thin?  Could it be a secondary factor?  Immediately, smoking comes to mind.  Let's face it...  Most people - especially in this country - don't tend to get slimmer as they get older.  Also, people who are "thinner", in general, tend to fit other profiles.  Blood type, medical history, etc...
 
I have to hope and believe that this is a "gateway" study.  One done so superficially, that it invites further research.
 
Also, the "lower income" finding is SIGNIFICANT.
