Poor Sleep Might Eliminate The Benefits Of Exercise & Dementia. High levels of aerobic fitness are closely linked to lower rates of future dementia 1. Regular physical activity is arguably one of the biggest factors preventing dementia. When it comes to preventing dementia, this could not be truer.

Dementia is a leading cause of death and a major concern for most people as they age. Optimal metabolic health is linked to reduced rates of dementia, but the question again is whether the use of medications such as Ozempic might also delay the onset of dementia.
