Research led by experts at Loughborough University highlights that a strong, well-maintained circadian rhythm can be protective. A study conducted in 2025 involving over 2,000 participants, with an average age of 79, revealed that individuals with robust daily rhythms experienced almost half the risk of developing dementia compared to those…
