In this special double-episode of Creating Dementia Solutions, founder and lead volunteer Sherii Sherban joins Richard to discuss the idea of dementia prevention.
Imagine that a significant portion of dementia cases could be delayed - or even prevented - by targeting a specific set of risk factors. The Lancet Commission says it can be done.
A Lancet report issued in 2017 elaborated on this notion. In 2024, the report was updated to add more risk factor targets.
