New research reveals that moderate exercise improves cognitive performance (CP) even under conditions of sleep deprivation and low oxygen levels.
Less cholesterol = Less Alzheimer's

In a recent study published in the Nutrition Journal, researchers examined a prospective population-based United Kingdom (U.K.) Biobank cohort to examine associations between free and intrinsic sugar sources and the risk of dementia.
In a recent prospective cohort study published in Jama Network Open, researchers examine whether younger age at atrial fibrillation (AF) diagnosis is associated with a higher risk of incident dementia.
The importance of the early detection of Alzheimer's disease (AD), especially at the stage of mild cognitive impairment (MCI), is increasingly recognized for the early management and intervention of the disease.
People who have a higher biological age than their actual chronological age have a significantly increased risk of stroke and dementia, especially vascular dementia. These are the results of a study from Karolinska Institutet in Sweden published in the Journal of Neurology, Neurosurgery and Psychiatry.
En 2022, UC's Robert Krikorian, PhD, and his team published research that found adding blueberries to the daily diets of certain middle-aged populations may lower the chances of developing late-life dementia.
