The Starting Gate Episode 48: The Lifestyle Prescription for Dementia Prevention
Dementia can be a devastating diagnosis for patients and families, and treatment options remain limited. But there is good news—prevention is possible. In this episode of The Starting Gate, we explore how lifestyle choices in midlife can significantly reduce the risk of dementia and delay cognitive decline. From nutrition and exercise to sleep and social connection, the evidence is clear: these habits are far more powerful than any supplement on the market. Dementia may not show symptoms until later life, but the groundwork is laid decades earlier. Join us as we uncover why lifestyle medicine offers the strongest defense against cognitive decline, and how the steps you take today can help you enjoy a sharper, healthier mind for years to come.
