Everyone wants to age well. These ‘super-agers’ know how.

Dr. Pedro Rosa-Neto quoted in The Montreal Gazette.

 

Whereas in the past patients would come to Rosa-Neto’s neuroimaging laboratory at the Douglas Research Centre when cognitive problems related to diseases like Alzheimer’s had already begun, now they come seeking prevention.

“This is kind of a paradigm shift, because people have this notion they can do things to prevent diseases,” he said. “Many have a relative that’s affected by dementia or any other age-related disease and want to know what they can do to try to prevent them. With knowledge comes better aging.”
