Regular physical exercise, not using tobacco, drinking less alcohol, maintaining healthy blood pressure and eating a healthy diet are all linked to reducing the risk of dementia, according to the World Health Organization

There's no effective treatment for dementia, which affects 50 million people worldwide, but the World Health Organization says there's much can be done to delay or slow the onset and progression of the disease.

In new guidelines released Tuesday, the WHO released its first recommendations to reduce the risk of dementia globally. They include regular physical exercise, not using tobacco, drinking less alcohol, maintaining healthy blood pressure and eating a healthy diet -- particularly a Mediterranean one.The international health body also warned against taking dietary supplements such as Vitamins B and E in an effort to combat cognitive decline and dementia.

Experts said that the advice issued by the WHO was comprehensive and sensible but some cautioned that the evidence that these steps would reduce dementia risk was not always strong."Keep on doing the things that we know benefit overall physical and mental health, but understand that the evidence that these steps will reduce dementia risk is not strong," Robert Howard, a professor of Old Age Psychiatry at University College London told the Science Media Center.

New York City Has a New Way to Teach MathNew York City is pushing a math curriculum for the coming fall that some public school teachers say doesn’t focus enough on teaching the concepts underlying the subject. god help those kids -- having just dealt with PSAT & SAT students this spring, they've been doing this crap 'concept approach' and...guess what? The kids can't do a simple percentage or ratio......the intentional dumbing down of America continues apace..... 'EdReports also said the program had too few lessons to last a full school year, forcing teachers to come up with too many of their own materials.' Yea that would be a real challenge for third graders. 😜 'It found only 28% of the district’s fourth-graders scored at or above proficient in math in 2017, slightly lower than 2009 but roughly in line with other large cities.' How can we compete with such incompetent public schools?
