What ways, if any, can you prevent gettin dementia?

Answer #1

Staying mentally active and eating lots of brain food, like bananas (high in potassium) Playing memory games to help keep your mind alert and active.

Answer #2

Unfortunately women are more likely to develop dementia than men, due to low oestragen after menopause (oestragen has a big effect on cognition). Best things you can do is look after your brain - dont drink too much and keep using it!

Answer #3

@ Patricia have you heard that recently there has been a new belief that people who don’t use their brain a lot in life are less likely to develop dementia when they get older? This is based on the Wear and Tear theory.
