Aging & Dementia

While some mild cognitive changes are typical with aging, dementia is not a normal part of the aging process. Age-related cognitive declines are subtle and primarily affect processing speed and executive function. Although dementia is not an inevitable consequence of aging, advancing age is the greatest risk factor for developing this condition. The prevalence of dementia rises significantly with age, with 95% of individuals affected by Alzheimer's disease, the most common form of dementia, being aged 65 or older. Aging poses a risk factor for dementia as the condition typically takes years to develop, often as a result of brain-damaging conditions like Alzheimer's or vascular disease. These conditions gradually affect the brain, eventually leading to the symptoms of dementia.
