The biggest thing you can do for Alzheimer's is be physically fit at mid life. I don't suppose that's correlated with sex and Viagra usage... Oh wait.

- HideousKojima 4y agoI realize anecdotes aren't data etc. etc. but my grandpa was very fit up through retirement (and stayed spry after retirement) since he repaired dishwashers, washing machines, and dryers for his whole career. Still got an absolutely terrible case of Alzheimer's that led to his death (and made me much more worried about my potential of getting it when I get older). Won't even try to think about if he and my grandma were sexually active though, too gross. So being physically fit definitely doesn't guarantee you won't get Alzheimer's.
- eloff 4y agoYeah, it's not a guarantee. Sorry about your grandpa. However, it is the strongest preventative measure we know about currently. Just like we know exercise is one of them best things you can do for cardiovascular health as well, but it doesn't mean fit people don't get heart attacks.
