Daily habits may influence dementia risk
A study found that frequent daytime napping, especially unintentional naps of 30 minutes or less, is linked to a higher risk of developing dementia in older adults. Researchers tracked nearly 1,000 individuals over a decade and discovered that those who nap most days or fall asleep unintentionally face nearly a 40-50% increased risk. Findings suggest that napping patterns may serve as early indicators of brain health changes related to dementia.
