    Slow walking predicts dementia?

    BBC News - Slow walking 'predicts dementia'

    Above is the link to a new story stating that slow walkers can be a predictor for a person developing dementia.

    It also claims that there may be a link between reduced grip strength and people having a stroke.

    I just wondered what my fellow professionals felt about this, is there an element of possibility or is it going to scare people?

    Any thoughts?
