Using data from the China Kadoorie Biobank study, researchers found that individuals with a history of hypertension or diabetes were 21% and 36% more likely, respectively, to develop dementia over a twelve-year period.

Eating Alone Linked to Poorer Nutrition in Seniors.

Following an analysis of data concerning more than 80,000 older adults from across twelve countries, researchers from Flinders University report that those who regularly eat meals alone are more likely to have poorer diet quality, reduced intake of key food groups, and a higher risk of frailty than their peers who often share meals with others. Future studies will investigate how social interaction during mealtimes influences appetite, nutritional status, and overall well-being in aging populations.

Insufficient Sleep Linked to Shorter Life Expectancy.

Oregon Health & Science University researchers report that aside from smoking, failure to consistently sleep seven to nine hours a night may be the strongest risk factor of early death—even more than poor diet, physical inactivity, and loneliness. The authors note that sufficient sleep is essential for optimal cardiovascular, immune, and brain health.
