By 2030, projections indicate that half of adults over 65 may develop some form of neurodegenerative disease. The rise in these diseases at younger ages highlights the need for an active approach to preventing these outcomes. Role of nutrition in prevention Nutritional factors play a crucial role in preventing neurodegenerative diseases. - Proper diet, stress management, and lifestyle choices can mitigate the risk of these diseases. - Understanding the importance of nutrition in brain health is key to empowering individuals to make proactive choices for their well-being.
