In an article by Express, it cites an study published in the National Library of Medicine titled "Citrus consumption and incident dementia in elderly Japanese: the Ohsaki Cohort 2006 Study". This study of some 13,000 Japanese suggests eating citrus daily reduces the chance of dementia by 23%. Key excerpts from Express:
"They found those who ate citrus fruits every day were significantly less likely to develop dementia in the succeeding six years than those who only ate them once or twice a week. The data in question for the study was taken from a Japanese long-term care insurance database."
"This was an observational study; this means it can only observe a potential link between two entities rather than draw a conclusion that there definitively is a link. This would only happen in a causational study."
