Hello sir yes dementia can be hereditary. Having a healthy lifestyle with regular excercise or meditation in any form wil help you prevent from dementia. Also doing some brain exercises like solving sudoku or crosswords etc also helps a lot in the prevention of dementia. However as such there are no proven meds to prevent it but a few lifestyle changes can help you prevent it.
