From the writeup:
“The 11 factors were: age; education; history of diabetes; history of/ current depression; history of stroke; parental dementia; economic disadvantage (Townsend deprivation index) high blood pressure; high cholesterol; living alone; and male sex.”
A lot of these are modifiable, even starting today.

Obviously not causative factors. Clickbait.
No study could ever come close to replicating even a single one of those other than a statistical link a/k/a a casual relationship. time to start drinking one or more but less than three glasses of red wine per week to prevent heart disease.

Education and economic disadvantage are actually proxies for brain size. People with large brains have more brain cells to lose before they turn into Demonrat voters.

Consuming too many carbohydrates, especially seeds and seed oils are bad. Getting too many omega 6 PUFAs are bad. One suspects that these will push someone toward dimentia.

No soy for me! To what type of seeds are you referring?

Great question. I believe statins do way more harm than good.

People with large brains have more brain cells to lose before they turn into Demonrat voters.That's why I always tamp little plugs into my ears at night.
Don't want to lose any brain cells, and start voting Dem!

I’ll take the line up.
I wasnt’ really joking on that point, just because of how bad I think it will be. They intend to kill billions. I wouldn’t want to be a survivor in that world.

Damn, could’ve gave this test to Biden when he was VP in 2009 and saved us a lot of headaches

I know that I haven’t met everybody in the world with dementia or Alzheimer’s, but the ones I have met seem to have one thing in common. Bad attitude / pessimistic outlook in life / mean steak.
I know it’s not true across the board, but just my own experience.

What is male sex mean? Males? Males having sex with males? Males sexually active?
