More people in Singapore are experiencing symptoms of dementia at an earlier age, according to the National Neuroscience Institute. The institute has seen people as young as 40 being diagnosed with dementia. Young Onset Dementia (YOD) refers to dementia affecting people aged 65 and below. Associate Professor Nagaendran Kandiah, Director of the Dementia Research Centre Singapore at the Lee Kong Chian School of Medicine, talks about the rise in YOD in Singapore. He speaks about what to do if some people notice tell-tale signs of dementia and if it can be prevented.
