🚨 New Research Alert! 🚨 In today’s video, I’m sharing a groundbreaking study that could change how we identify dementia risk YEARS before any symptoms show up! 🤯 This quick, non-invasive test might be the key to detecting dementia risk up to 12 years earlier. Yep, you read that right—12 years!
Why does this matter? Because early detection means earlier intervention, better treatment options, and more time to plan ahead for you and your loved ones. Whether you’re concerned about your own brain health or someone you care about, this information is a must-know.
👏 In this episode, I’ll break down:
-The simple visual test that researchers are using to predict dementia risk
-What signs to look for in everyday life that could indicate a decline in visual processing speed
-How this research could revolutionize early detection and care for dementia
While this test alone isn’t a diagnosis, it’s a major step forward in identifying high-risk individuals and getting the help they need faster. Don't wait—earlier detection means better care!
