A new report on dementia looks at nutrition and its role in the development of the disease. Professor Martin Prince is with King’s College London’s Global Observatory for Ageing and Dementia Care. Speaking on AM740’s Goldhawk Fights Back, Professor Prince said nutrition plays a role at the very beginning of life.
