Healthy habits may delay dementia by 13 years

A new study from the Langone Health Center at New York University has shown that avoiding high blood pressure, diabetes, and smoking between the ages of 48 and 68 can add approximately 13 years of life free from dementia. The study, which lasted 26 years and involved more than 12,000 participants, revealed that individuals who avoided these health risk factors lived longer without brain disorders, with an average of about 30 years of dementia-free life compared to only 17 years for those who developed these risk factors. Women experienced longer periods of cognitive health than men, regardless of risk factors, highlighting the importance of managing heart and vascular health to prevent dementia.
