For many time all person, in special the scientists thought that a loss of memory was after of 60. But a recent study shows that the loss of reasoning and understanding begins at 45.
This study was done with a sample of 7.000 person of civil servants, between 45 and 70 years old. A name of study is Whitehall II, and consisted in a verbal and written test. Over ten yearsthey had to do there tests for three times.
Scientist conducting the study, including those of University College London in the UK, say that older people have more damege and higher in men. But this starts early. One thing that is very important of this result, is that if the impairment is detected early, can prevent dementias such as Alzheimer´s, and this is the challenge to be. Something relevant to this study is that the educational level of people don´t have to do with brain damege.
One good thing about this is that are ways to prevent deterioration, and is caring the heart and overall health. There are many papers that show the importance of good lifestyles to avoid problems old age. And if you are young, you have to look from and what you eat or drink and play sports. Lindsey Davies, president of the Faculty of Public Health say that if no care lifestyle, there will be not remedy that can help against dementia.
