Some recent studies suggest early dementia could possibly be detected by something as simple as hand grip.
Dementia is mainly diagnosed in the later stages. If more sensitive easy testing can be done, the condition could be caught much earlier.
Is there really a connection between hand grip and the ravaging mental disease?
We need more answers, but the new dementia studies are showing some hope for earlier dementia detection.

Catching dementia early on is very important because there are some new treatments out there that can delay the onset of severe dementia but only if you catch it in the early stages.
