Falls may signal brain changes
Falls aren't just about bruises: they might actually signal changes in the brain.
The study showed that people who fell were more likely to develop dementia (11.6% vs. 7.7%).
Researchers think there's a loop: falling can speed up cognitive decline, brain changes can make you fall more, and being less active after a fall can make things worse.
So if you notice older family members getting clumsier, it might be worth paying attention. It's not just about balance.
