Here are the twelve risk factors:
- high blood pressure
- lower education levels
- impaired hearing
- smoking
- obesity
- depression
- physical inactivity
- diabetes
- low levels of social contact
- excessive alcohol consumption
- traumatic brain injuries
- air pollution
And here are simple lifestyle interventions that can help lessen that risk:
- a healthy diet - heavy on vegetables and fiber, low on processed food
- movement - any movement is good!
- quality sleep - prioritizing sleep
- stress reduction - finding calm in our lives
- mental stimulation - making sure we keep learning whatever our education attainment level
- reducing our toxic load - fewer toxins in, more toxins out
