Simple Steps to Lower Dementia Risk

A Lancet commission report suggests that 40% of dementia cases could be delayed or prevented by addressing 14 modifiable risk factors. Dr. Jonathan Rosand and his team have developed a 'brain care score' to help individuals track and improve their brain health through lifestyle changes such as diet, exercise, and stress management. Studies show that a higher brain care score is linked to a lower risk of dementia, stroke, and depression, even for those with genetic predispositions. The score emphasizes the importance of healthy habits and managing chronic conditions.
