Three Things to Eliminate for a Dementia-Free Old Age?

Let's take a look right away at our second useful news segment.

We have one more health-related story.

A joint research team from prestigious universities including Tsinghua University in China and New York University in the United States conducted a study on ways to delay dementia.

The findings show that by simply managing just three factors—blood pressure, blood sugar, and smoking—people can spend their old age free from dementia.

The study revealed that maintaining normal blood pressure and blood sugar levels starting from age 48 and not smoking extends a dementia-free life by an average of 13 years.

In addition, regardless of the number of risk factors, women lived longer without dementia than men.

For individuals with none of the three risk factors, women were found to be able to live for about 31 years and men for about 29 years without dementia.

Considering that the average age at the start of the study was 56, this means women could live without worrying about dementia until age 87, and men until age 85.
