Relationship between Traditional Malaysian Vegetables (Ulam) Intake and Cognitive Status Among Middle-aged Adults from Low Cost Residential Areas

Description

Ulam is fresh traditional Malaysian vegetables which normally consumed in raw form or after a short blanching process. It contains high antioxidants and polyphenols. However, there is limited study about the relationship between ulam consumption and cognitive status. Thus, a cross sectional study was conducted to determine the relation with cognitive function among 132 middle-aged Malays adults (45-59 years old), recruited by convenient sampling from low income residences in Klang Valley.
