Understanding Dementia Risk Factors

Research highlights the importance of a healthy lifestyle in preventing dementia. Factors like regular exercise, a balanced diet, mental stimulation, and social interaction all support cognitive health and reduce the risk of cognitive decline.

Exercise: Regular movement, such as walking or light aerobics, boosts blood flow to the brain.

Diet: Nutritious meals rich in vegetables, fruits, and healthy fats (similar to the Mediterranean diet) support brain health.

Mental Stimulation: Activities like puzzles, reading, and learning new skills help keep the mind sharp.

Social Engagement: Staying connected and avoiding isolation is crucial, especially for the elderly.
