Researchers found that global life expectancy is now longer in 2022 than in the 2000s by about six to seven years. And generally, this is perceived as a good thing, right? Surprisingly and unfortunately it’s not all good and we're here to tell you why.
We all know that as we grow older our body and mind weaken. This poses the problem that because we are now living longer, our body is now more prone to medical impairments that are usually seen in the later stages of life, like diabetes, cancer, and most of all Alzheimer's and dementia.
Alzheimer’s is a cognitive disorder that is now the seventh leading cause of death according to WHO and the alarming issue here is the misconception that it is an age-related disease and the lack of tests that can be administered to possibly identify symptoms or early stages of the disease.
In this episode, we are joined by Thomas O’Neill, CEO of Cognivue, a company that developed the first FDA-cleared technology for cognitive function, as he shares how cognitive health can elevate overall healthcare and increase our awareness so we can be better prepared for healthy aging.
To learn more about Cognivue, stay tuned to today’s episode!
