Young adults are almost twice as likely to have a stroke as they were 30 years ago. 🧠 New research published in Neurology, co-authored by University of Cincinnati neurologist Dr. David Robinson, tracked nearly three decades of stroke data from Greater Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky. The findings stand out: 🔺 Ischemic strokes nearly doubled among adults ages 20 to 54 🔺 High blood pressure in young stroke patients rose from 47.3% to 60.3% 🔺 Documented substance use jumped from 4.6% to 40.2% The takeaway: you're never too young to think about stroke risk. The full breakdown, including what young adults can do to lower their risk, is in the article below. 👇 Originally reported by Daniella Gray for Newsweek.
