Study: Tofu Harms Memory

A study of 719 people between age 52 and 98 conducted by a team of researchers at Loughborough University found that those eating tofu more than once a day had a 20 percent lower level of memory function than those eating much lesser amounts.

Eating high levels of some soy products, including tofu and other so-called 'superfoods,' may increase memory loss, scientists say.

Experts funded by the Alzheimer's Research Trust found a 20 per cent lower level of brain functioning compared with those eating very little of the product.

They are warning older people, particularly women and vegetarians, of the possible risks of consuming tofu and similar foods too frequently.

The researchers' findings will be published in this month's journal Dementias And Geriatric Cognitive Disorders.

Interestingly, I've read that marijuana users also suffer from poor memory functioning so it might be worthwhile to conduct a study of dope-smoking tofu-eaters to see if soy/marijuana-derived dumbness is achievable. My guess is that it is.
