Just 20 Minutes of Exercise Twice a Week May Prevent Dementia.

Using data from the Health and Retirement Study, researchers found that older adults with mild-cognitive impairment were less likely to progress to dementia over an eight-year time period if they exercised at moderate-intensity—like brisk walking, for example—for at least 20 minutes twice a week. The findings demonstrate the ability of regular physical activity to delay or possibly prevent dementia.

Poor Cardiometabolic Health Influences Dementia Risk.

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. These findings suggest that preventive strategies targeting cardiometabolic disorders may also protect brain health.

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.

Benefits of Daily Walks.

The Mayo Clinic notes that increasing daily step counts to 4,000–8,000 steps per day (about 2-4 miles or 3.2-6.4 kilometers) can improve blood pressure, weight control, mood, balance, blood sugar regulation, and overall chronic disease risk.
