Research published in the Journal of the American Geriatrics Society suggests that greater community mobility is associated with better cognitive function in adults aged 52 and older. The study of 7,016 Black and white adults found that the association was strongest in individuals with a low risk of atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). The link between mobility and cognition highlights the interconnectedness of cognitive and physical health and suggests a need for a holistic approach to address both lifestyle and traditional health measures. The findings emphasize the importance of staying active in the community for maintaining cognitive health.
