摘要：The greatest risk factor for neurodegeneration is aging.However genetics at birth only contributes 20-25％ to the determinants of lifespan,so we actually have around 75％ control over how well individuals age in body and brain.Health is the real wealth and that everyone can significantly control/achieve sustainable health and quality of life through lifestyle choices needs to be better promoted.Dementia is predominantly a disease of aging with millions of people suffering from dementia and Alzheimer's disease (AD) and in recent years little has happened to change and improve the cognitive functions of elderly people (2015 Alzheimer's disease facts and figures).Every 4 seconds there is a new case of dementia in the world and with 7.7 million cases annually,the estimated global cost of AD and dementia disease is $604 billion.
