California study warns middle-aged TV viewers of brain risks

A study from the University of Southern California found that middle-aged adults who watch television frequently may experience brain shrinkage, increased white matter hyperintensity, and reductions in regions linked to early Alzheimer's indicators. The research analyzed data from 1,700 participants over two decades, revealing that extensive TV viewing, especially in men, correlates with structural brain decline even after accounting for overall sitting time and other lifestyle factors. The findings suggest that activities done while sitting, such as watching TV, could negatively impact brain health and should be considered in health guidelines.
