Difficulty with multitasking, recalling words or names, and paying attention are all common in older adults. Health conditions such as Alzheimer’s disease and stroke can also affect your brain’s health.
The good news is, there are several ways to help keep your brain in shape.
Research suggests that engaging with others may support your well-being and brain health. Every phone call, video chat and email message can help.
Regular physical activity is shown to improve brain health and reduce your risk of dementia. From watering plants in your garden to casting a fishing rod in the bay, every bit of movement counts.
Smoking may double the risk of dementia in older adults, according to some studies. It’s never too late to quit.
Nutritious foods aren’t just good for your body — they’re good for your brain too. The Mediterranean diet recommends more vegetables, whole grains and seafood, with less red meat, eggs and sugary foods. Research suggests that this diet, and other variations, may help to lower the risk of dementia.
