Blood Sugar and Dementia

"Higher blood sugar levels, even those well short of diabetes, seem to raise the risk of developing dementia." Dr. Paul Crane of the University of Washington

We cannot prevent the dementia of those for whom we are caregivers, but this is important information for preventing dementia in ourselves.  Eating well, exercising and controlling weight help to control blood sugar.  This is just one more example of how to support our own health.
