In addition to just generally being good for you slimming down to a healthy weight can improve your memory and increase brain activity.
Swedish researchers found that older, overweight women who dieted went on to score better in memory tests after they had lost weight.
Previous studies had shown that obese people have worse episodic memory – the ability to remember events that happen during your life – but the new findings suggest this may be reversible, the scientists said.
