Today we’re sharing the next thing we want everyone know about dementia.

‘Dementia is caused by diseases of the brain’

In the same way that any other organ can be damaged by disease (for example kidney disease, liver disease), dementia is caused when diseases physically damage the brain.

As with many other diseases, it is possible to reduce your risk of developing dementia by living a healthy lifestyle. Things like regular exercise, a balanced diet, keeping your brain active and not smoking, can all help reduce your risk.
