‘Super-agers’ may hold the clue to preventing dementia
As we age beyond our 50s, our brains tend to shrink in volume and our memory begins to decline. These widespread brain changes are considered normal, but mounting evidence suggests that avoiding memory loss is entirely possible.

With no age-related damage to their brains, the question now is: “Can you make a person a ‘super ager’ or are you born with it?” Experts already know that certain factors such as smoking and high cholesterol can make the brain age faster, and now they will be studying these ‘super agers’ further to find more clues that could lead to new ways of preventing dementia.
