Report identifies seven ways to prevent dementia,” Medical Xpress

Quote:

“Anstey has estimated that close to 50% of dementia cases can be attributed to seven key modifiable lifestyle factors; midlife hypertension, diabetes, low educational attainment, smoking, physical inactivity, midlife obesity, and depression.”

LTC Comment (from Stephen A. Moses, President, Center for Long-Term Care Reform):  This does not mean those seven factors “cause” dementia, but it does show we suffer several parallel epidemics the resolutions of which are highly likely to have mutual benefits.
