A study published in the Journal of the American Heart Association highlights the significance of maintaining ideal cardiovascular health (CVH) based on Life’s Simple 7 metrics. The comprehensive review of 483 studies from 2010 to 2021 found that higher CVH scores are associated with up to 86% lower risk of dementia, along with reduced incidence of chronic diseases and mortality. This underscores the importance of behavioral and clinical factors in promoting long-term health. Researchers, led by Liliana Aguayo, emphasize the need for primordial prevention strategies to address disparities in health outcomes.
