Research indicates that the shingles vaccine may slow or prevent the progression of dementia and reduce the risk of developing it, showing potential both as a preventive and therapeutic measure, especially among women, based on a study of over 300,000 health records in Wales.
Recent research suggests that the shingles vaccine not only prevents shingles but also significantly reduces the risk of dementia and may slow its progression in older adults, potentially offering a simple and accessible way to improve brain health and combat cognitive decline.
A natural experiment in Wales found that a routine shingles vaccine given to 79-year-olds was associated with a 20% reduction in dementia risk, suggesting that the vaccine may have protective effects on brain health by reducing viral reactivation and neuroinflammation, with potential therapeutic benefits even for those already with dementia.
A study suggests that the shingles vaccine may help slow down the progression of dementia, indicating potential additional benefits of the vaccine beyond preventing shingles.
A new study suggests that the shingles vaccine not only prevents shingles but may also slow the progression of dementia and reduce the risk of death from the disease, possibly through immune system enhancement or reducing inflammation caused by the virus. Further research is needed to confirm these findings and understand the mechanisms involved.
Recent research suggests that the shingles vaccine may reduce the risk of developing dementia by 20% and could have therapeutic benefits for those already diagnosed, based on a study of Welsh adults. The findings indicate potential for the vaccine to help prevent and treat dementia, although the exact mechanism remains unclear.
A large study suggests that the shingles vaccine not only prevents shingles but also significantly reduces the risk of vascular dementia, heart attacks, strokes, blood clots, and death in adults over 50, indicating potential broader health benefits.
New research suggests that the shingles vaccine not only prevents painful shingles but also reduces the risk of serious health conditions like heart disease, stroke, and dementia, highlighting additional benefits of vaccination for adults over 50.
A study suggests that the shingles vaccine may significantly reduce the risk of dementia, heart disease, and death in adults over 50, highlighting additional benefits of vaccination beyond shingles prevention.
Recent studies suggest that getting certain vaccines, including the flu, RSV, shingles, and Tdap, may lower the risk of developing dementia by reducing systemic inflammation and protecting brain health, especially in older adults.
A large study suggests that receiving the shingles vaccine, particularly the newer Shingrix, may be associated with a reduced risk of developing dementia in older adults, possibly due to decreased viral reactivation or immune system effects, though further research is needed to confirm causality.
Emerging evidence suggests that vaccines, especially the shingles vaccine, may reduce the risk of dementia by preventing infections that accelerate brain aging and possibly through immune system stimulation, offering a promising new avenue for dementia prevention alongside lifestyle changes.
New research indicates that the shingles vaccine, particularly the recombinant version, not only prevents shingles but also significantly reduces the risk of heart attacks and strokes in adults over 50, highlighting additional health benefits of vaccination.
A review presented at the European Society of Cardiology suggests that the shingles vaccine not only prevents shingles but may also reduce the risk of heart attack and stroke, with vaccinated individuals showing an 18% lower risk of cardiovascular events, though more research is needed to confirm causality.
A meta-analysis presented at the 2025 European Society of Cardiology Congress suggests that shingles vaccination is associated with a reduced risk of heart attack and stroke, though causality has not been established and further research is needed.
