Cognition and Seniors: How to Keep Your Brain Fit and What That Means for Your Health
Most would agree the brain is our most vital organ, and keeping it healthy is incredibly important to our overall wellness. While it is normal to experience some cognitive decline over time, many don’t know there are ways to keep our brains sharp as we age.
To that end, the team at the The National Council on Aging in the United States has created a resource on how to keep the brain fit, including:
Cognition, cognitive decline, and how aging affects the brain
How our physical health affects cognitive health
Lifestyle changes to optimize brain function
Spotting misleading information that promises to prevent cognitive decline
