Study: Weight Loss Could Signal Future Dementia In Women

Remember, correlation ain't causation... but it seems one warning signal
for women and dimentia is weightloss, presumably unintentional, and the
very first indications of a mind starting to lose it's way, if only in the
background

It was on the BBC site too. The way I read it was not that losing weight as
in trying to was th problem, it was that someone suddenly losing weight
unexplainedly could be an indicator of future risk.

The Mayo Clinic site stated it was unintentional weight loss rather
than a program to lose weight. Execise has been found helpful in
preventing dementia.
