Dementia is a general term for various brain disorders that can affect behavior, thinking and memory. Among the condition that qualify as dementia, Alzheimer’s disease (AD) is the most common. According to the Texas Department of State Health Services, AD is an irreversible condition that destroys memory, thinking and the ability to carry out daily activities.
Although initial AD symptoms may be mild, the disease worsens over time and eventually people with AD will need full-time care. Many people are interested in any ways they can reduce the severity of AD or stave off its progression. Cardiovascular fitness could be an important tool in that fight.
