The thing is, how do they know? There is no control sample.

Also keeping an active social life, correcting hearing loss and learning a language seems to help.

Sorry I don’t know how to do links but I’ve just read this in the Times.
A study in America on 6600 people over 65 have found that the combined effect of 7 things can cut our risk of dementia.
Not smoking-moderate drinking- eating plenty of fruit, veg and fish- staying slim - exercising - controlling blood pressure and cholesterol and blood sugar.
Actually that seems like 8 to me! I suppose blood sugar is American for diabetes.
Well I should be fine then.
Now where did I put my car keys?
