Factors that increase the likelihood of suffering from cognitive disorders (II)

- Lack of balanced diet and moderate exercise: Frequent consumption of high-calorie food, more salt, oil and sugar, as well as more meat and fewer vegetables can easily lead to blood vessel degeneration. There are many blood vessels in the human brain. If the blood vessels deteriorate, become blocked, or even damaged and bleed, it will lead to vascular cognitive impairment and even stroke. Therefore, moderate exercise and a balanced diet can keep blood vessels healthy and reduce the risk of cognitive impairment.
- Unhealthy habits: Smoking, alcoholism, and drug abuse have serious and long-term effects on brain health. Regular practice of these bad habits can lead to the death of brain nerve cells and destruction of brain structure, which can then evolve into severe cognitive impairment. Abstaining from these bad habits will help reduce the chances of developing cognitive impairment.
