Lifestyle habits which can be bad for your brain health.
#Dementia
While the condition is primarily caused by physical changes to the brain matter, heavily dependent on one's age, genetic risk, family history or if injuries to the brain, the kind of lifestyle you lead, dietary deficiencies may also increase one's chances of developing dementia.
If there is one single factor which can increase your chances of cognitive decline, poor brain health and accelerate ageing, it has to be the lack of Vitamin B12 in our diets.
Poor levels of Vitamin B12 can induce symptoms like memory loss, aggravate development of dementia in individuals. While it does not have a direct impact on memory function, Vitamin B12 is an important nutrient to be included in your everyday diet.
While we are increasingly hearing of rising heart attacks amongst the young, experts have also said that poor diligence and attention to heart health, following poor cardiac preventive measures can also raise a person's risk of cognitive decline and issues like dementia.
