A new study suggests there are seven health factors that may impact the development of dementia, and it's never too early to start thinking about each one of them. 🧠
Looking at 8,823 European Americans and 2,738 Black Americans over the course of 30 years, the study rated each participant on a scale of 0 to 14 in the above categories to determine the extent of their healthy habits in combination with their genetic risk of developing dementia. Based on their calculated risk scores, the participants were then broken into groups with those at a corresponding risk level.
At the end of the study, researchers determined that those with higher scores in LS7 were less likely to develop dementia, overall lowering the estimated risk. In fact, each time a participant gained one point on the LS7 scale, their risk for dementia dropped around 9%.While this study reveals that there are factors within your control that may reduce your risk of dementia, it also clearly states that this may not be applicable to those that are highly genetically predisposed to this condition.
Additionally, the study recognizes that this is still a relatively small test group, and in order to more effectively determine these habits' effect on lowering dementia risk, a larger sample size would be needed with increasingly diverse populations. in AA individuals. We observed lower LS7 scores and higher risk of incident dementia among AA participants consistent with results from other studies.
