We will not tell you what dementia is and what consequences the disease brings to the body. It will be much more interesting to learn how to prevent brain aging.
For this case, unique diets with products that are beneficial for the brain are being developed, but there is a simpler way - you just need to get a dog.
Japanese scientists have concluded that dog owners are less likely to suffer from dementia, the article was published by the Daily Mail.
The risk of developing this disease is reduced by approximately 40%.
What is the reason?
It's not just that dogs keep you from getting bored and relieve loneliness.
The main benefit for humans is the need to walk dogs daily – at least twice a day.
Constantly being outdoors and walking are beneficial for brain function.
In addition to the fact that a dog maintains its owner’s physical activity at the proper level, it allows him to be in society more often and lead a socially active life.
Communication with friends and other dog owners also has a positive effect on brain function.
