Couples may also have more opportunities for social engagement than single people that further wards off the dementia risk. Conversely, lifelong singletons and widowers were 42 per cent and 20 per cent more likely to develop dementia risk. Thus, those who remain unmarried should focus more on education and proper physical health to cut down the risk of dementia, the researchers said.
