Can HRT prevent dementia? What the latest research tells us (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A study has raised a question that many women would understandably want answered: could hormone replacement therapy (HRT) protect against dementia? The research found that women who had used HRT were less likely to receive a dementia diagnosis during follow-up, particularly if they had undergone surgery involving their reproductive organs. But the results do not establish that HRT caused the difference. The researchers analysed data from 183,450 postmenopausal women in the UK Biobank, followed f

Not all physical activity is equal when it comes to protecting the brain from dementia. Where and why we move may matter more than most people realise. A large new review of studies published in The Lancet Public Health found that leisure-time physical activity – such as sport, dancing or going to the gym – was linked to a 24% lower risk of dementia. Housework was linked to a 15% lower risk, although this finding came from just one study. Occupational physical activity, on the other hand, was li
Can speaking multiple languages really lower dementia risk? It’s not that simple (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The risk of dementia rises as the brain ages. One reason is that connections between brain cells weaken over time. Diseases of the brain, such as Alzheimer’s and stroke, can speed this up, eventually leading to dementia, a loss of mental abilities and a loss of independence. Scientists can now estimate a person’s brain age from brain scans, and compare it with their actual age. This difference, known as the brain-age gap, can predict who is more likely to see faster mental decline and go on to d
