Risk factors for dementia

Reduce your risk of dementia. Your brain is your most valuable asset.
Being brain healthy is relevant at any age, whether you are young, old or in between. However, it is particularly important once you reach middle age as this is when changes start to occur in the brain.

The risk factors for dementia are different in everybody. Whilst we cannot change getting older, genetics or family history, scientific research suggests that changing certain health and lifestyle habits may make a big difference to reducing or delaying your risk of developing dementia.
It’s never too early or too late to start.
