Welcome to paging, Dr. Gupta.

Thank you so much for joining us.

We are really trying to be your source for answers to whatever health questions you've been mulling over.

Feel free to send those into us.

This is the show where we take those questions, really dig into the science and hopefully the stories behind them. Kira's back with us.

Who do we have first? Hey, Sanjay. So first up today, we've got a question from Alan in Ottawa,

Canada, who wrote in asking if having type 2 diabetes accelerates cognitive decline if you're over the age of 70.

Alan, I am really glad you asked about this because so many people in both Canada and the United States have type 2 diabetes.

In fact, around 11% of the general population lives with diabetes and the numbers for those over the age of 65 jump up close to 30%.

Keep that in mind when we give you the answer right after the break.
