!Diabetes and Brain Health What’s the Connection Between Diabetes and Dementia? Recent studies have confirmed that Type 2 diabetes significantly increases the risk of developing dementia, including Alzheimer’s disease and vascular dementia. According to the Alzheimer’s Society and the Madras Diabetes Research Foundation, people with diabetes are up to 60% more likely to experience memory loss and cognitive decline.
