Processed meat intake associated with higher dementia risk.
4

Study included over 2,000 patients over 15 years.
5

Gender and age influenced outcomes, especially in female patients.
6

Study adjusted for lifestyle, dietary quality, and comorbidities.
7

Higher unprocessed meat intake linked to reduced death rates in specific genotypes.
