Aging brings with it many health issues that can make life challenging. As much of the attention is given to non-communicable diseases, there are others which are slowly becoming a matter of great concern. One such issue is cognitive frailty, which is a high risk factor for dementia, falls, fractures and hospitalization. Though not yet declared a public health concern, it deserves early detection and prevention strategies. As it is reversible if treated on time, there is a need to look into its prevention and cure. Physical activity has proven to be very effective in the treatment of cognitive frailty. This scoping review thus aims to study the impact of physical activity through social participation on cognitive frailty. The authors recommend that focussing on one's muscular fitness through participation in sports and elements of Indian classical dance form like Kathak in groups/ communities can be a very effective way of combating cognitive frailty among older adults.
