And 3 simple steps to reduce your risk of dementia.
I’m writing today’s newsletter from my new under-the-desk treadmill, a product I took the plunge on after two-plus years of working from home. I realized recently that I wasn’t walking nearly as much as I used to pre-pandemic. I’m grateful I decided to make the investment after reading reporter Jillian Wilson’s story on heart health this past week. Data shows you only need to walk a certain number of minutes per day to reduce your risk of heart disease by 30%. |
And in the spirit of prevention, Jillian also investigated a new study that revealed the simple strategies we can take to reduce our risk of dementia. Keep scrolling for that and more. ❤️, Lindsay |
