Dr. Amen explains that not only can your brain help you determine the best way for you to lose weight, but that shedding those pounds can also have a positive effect on your brain. "What we found with people who are overweight is that as their weight went up, the actual physical size of their brain goes down," he states. "For obese people, they had 8 percent less brain tissue and their brains looked 16 years older than healthy people." Dr. Amen adds that being overweight doubles your risk for Alzheimer's disease.
