The NEW health crisis (NOT COVID-19)

The COVID-19 pandemic definitely changed the way we ALL view the term “health crisis.”

And rightfully so!

But what if I told you that researchers may have uncovered a NEW health crisis that is not only extremely dangerous, but isn’t getting the press it deserves?

And, if left unchecked, it could strip the independence and well-being away from MILLIONS.

According to new research, it’s already happening at an alarming rate… right under our noses!

An international research study led by University College London discovered that cases of cognitive decline – including dementia – more than DOUBLED between 2009 and 2018.

Researchers found that within three years of follow up from the date the doctor reported a memory concern…

• 46% of people would develop dementia, and
• 52% of folks with diagnosed cognitive decline would also develop dementia.

Those are disturbing figures… and unfortunately, it’s a trend that’s showing no signs of slowing down.

In fact, it’s estimated that global dementia cases are projected to TRIPLE by the year 2050.

So, what do these sobering stats mean for you or someone you love… especially with no viable ‘cure’?

This latest study highlights the fact that now – more than ever – it’s extremely important to make ANY concerns about your memory a focal point during routine doctor visits.

Identifying noticeable memory issues early is critical – and allows you to develop  a plan tailored to your long-term brain health.

In the meantime, you can also incorporate brain-healthy supplements into your diet as a preventive measure to maintain a strong memory.

Fish oil supplements are packed with docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), which studies have found can help improve thinking skills and even benefit folks experiencing a mild decline in brain function.

Talk to your doctor about the best way to incorporate fish oils into your routine.
