Neurocognitive Disorders Archives

Summary: Recent updates in brain health show some surprising links to memory loss and dementia. First, eating a diet high in fiber can actually lower your risk of getting dementia. On the flip side, breathing in dirty air and pollution increases your risk.

Other research highlights that cancer can cause memory issues, and programs that help people buy groceries (like SNAP) can slow down brain decline by making sure people have enough to eat. Finally, doctors say that catching Alzheimer's disease early is the best way to help patients and their families live better lives.
