Mini Podcast: Dementia isn't all that preventable

Welcome to our Mini Podcast season! These are unedited, super short episodes we created for our Patreon audience last year. Now they're available for you to enjoy!

When we spot people posting things like this, they're really taking facts out of context...and typically new to the industry or running out of good content to post! Here's why this doesn't make sense: - Dementia is made up of over 100 different diseases - Many diseases (read: nearly every single disease) has some genetic component - Bad luck is real: you can live a perfectly healthy lifestyle and make all the "right" choices and STILL GET DEMENTIA - Avoiding sugar or whatever all the nonsense, so-called health accounts online these days tell you is NOT a sure-fire way to prevent dementia - Accidents happen: a bad fall, a concussion or a car accident could have an effect on someone's cognitive health
