Preventing Dementia
The VitalOp Dementia Prevention Plan focuses on the risk factors for the two main types of dementia: Alzheimer’s and Vascular.
Only about 1% of Alzheimer’s and Vascular dementia is directly caused by genetics or our DNA.
This means our lifestyle and environment play a HUGE role in the other 99%.
