A new study shows seven heart-healthy habits can lower your chances of developing dementia down the road.
TUESDAY, Feb. 28, 2023 -- If it’s good for your heart, it’s good for your brain, too.
“There are lots of health benefits from eating a healthy diet and getting regular physical activity including blood pressure, cholesterol and glucose control, and keeping body mass index [a measurement of body fat based on height and weight] in the healthy range,” Rist said. Women in the study received a score of zero for poor or intermediate health and one point for ideal health for each of the seven factors for a possible total score of 7.
There are other healthy lifestyle factors that may further lower your risk for dementia that aren’t on the list, such as continuing education through life, being engaged in social activity and getting good quality sleep, she added. The researchers didn’t look at how changes such as quitting smoking influenced the risk of dementia later in life.
