How to Prevent Dementia

At the moment, there are still many unknowns when it comes to dementia. While researchers have been able to pinpoint certain risk factors, they are still looking further into exactly how, and why, dementia develops for some people.

Some of these risk factors such as getting older or our genetics are impossible to change. But there are some risk factors that we have some control over, which when addressed may lower the risk.
