keeping your brain healthy

The right lifestyle can help prevent cognitive decline and keep your brain sharp throughout your life. Research has shown that lifestyle factors such as exercise, diet, sleep, managing stress, staying social, and engaging in cognitively stimulating activities can prevent almost 50% of dementia cases. If you are worried about, or already experiencing cognitive decline, the important takeaway is that you can do something about it. And it’s never too late to start.
