Unlike other “preventing” methods, this one seems to work even after the onset of dementia.

Their subjects were 57 seniors housed in nursing and care facilities in Japan.

Between July 2015 and July 2016, they gave 30 of these people a course of learning therapy, consisting of the answering of easy reading and mathematical calculation questions for five days a week.

The other 27, called the control group, received no therapy at all.

To track their progress, the researchers used the standard Japanese scale that is used to rate seniors from one to five according to the amount of nursing care they require.

By the end of the year, the condition of the participants who received the learning therapy showed almost no change, while the condition of those who received nothing deteriorated at the expected rate.

The leading researcher in the study described this type of brain stimulation as an example of a non-pharmaceutical treatment that worked.

He also expressed his satisfaction at discovering a dementia treatment that was substantially cheaper than drugs.
