The relationship between muscle loss and dementia. 🤔

[RescueLover]

Curious have you ever met a strong man or woman with a weak mind?

I haven’t yet…

I am BEYOND OLD...and have been lifting weights most of my life...and I still "forget stuff"...

There are exceptions to every rule...my paternal grandmother was overweight at least from the time she was about 40, she dipped snuff (ick!) and got very little exercise. She lived to be almost 91, and her mind was still very sharp, though her body had failed her.

I have seen more weak minds in the recent future, then my entire life.

To me it is offensive and a generalization on someone's looks basically to assume that they have a "weak mind."  

Some of the smartest people ever have been elderly, disabled, frail, sickley, etc and brilliant, or kind, or have a special mind for loving those around them.

Just take everyone for who they are and value them for themselves.  Not their physical appearance or limitations please.

Strong people still get Alzheimer's.  Yes, I have seen that.

I did not make up weak body weak mind. 🥴

I receive emails from reputable health & wellness sites and this is what research is showing. Google it.


I was just wondering if anyone here has seen the connection that health professionals are saying to be a meaningful warning sign. 😔

Hi! @Desertdi 🤗

I like your humor. And forgetting things is normal but I’m talking more like…

Going to pick up a friend at her house to go shopping and out to lunch.

Turned around 1/2 way there and your friend asking you where you’re going?

Well I’m taking you home now after our nice long day

(and you hadn’t shopped or ate lunch yet.) 😔
