We're not discussing a strict diet here, but a good balance. It reduces inflammation and decreases the risk of dementia and even diabetes. The Mediterranean diet is the top choice!

Watch out for blood pressure! If it's too high, it can increase the risk of dementia. So, keep an eye on that.

 

5. Goodbye to Cigarettes 

Smoking is a definite no. It's not just active smoking; even passive smoking can increase the risk of dementia. So, quit if you can.

 

6. Farewell to Chronic Alcoholism

Chronic alcoholism, besides wreaking havoc on memory, increases the risk of early dementia. Not cool. So, moderation, friends.

 

7. Socialize!

Social interaction is like a superpower against dementia. So, please get out and talk to people. It's good for your brain.

Summary: Control your blood pressure, say goodbye to cigarettes and chronic alcoholism, and socialize as if there's no tomorrow.
