A study involving nearly 90,000 adults found that engaging in just 35 minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity per week was associated with a 41% lower risk of developing dementia over an average four-year follow-up period. …
A new study has shown that a range of environmental factors, including lifestyle (smoking and physical activity), and living conditions, have a greater impact on health and premature death than our genes. …
