Risk Reduction & Brain Health
You can make healthy choices for your brain. Find out how simple things like diet, rest and exercise can make your brain more healthy.
Healthy food for a healthy brain
Nutrition makes a huge difference, not only for a healthy mind but for a healthy body too. Discover which foods support healthy aging, learn how to find them on a budget, and try some sample menus.
Physical exercise for a healthy brain
One key to brain health is body health. Since regular exercise can improve your brain health, learn how to create an exercise plan that safely fits your lifestyle and mobility level, and keeps you motivated to stick with it.
Healthy sleep for a healthy brain
You might already know that a well-rested body feels better and improves your immune system, but you may not know that it also reduces the buildup of proteins associated with Alzheimer’s Disease. Learn more about the connection between Alzheimer’s and sleep, and how you can get your brain the rest it needs despite the challenges of aging.
Staying social for a healthy brain
One of the best protections against memory loss is simply staying connected to friends and family. Stimulating conversation and spending time with people close to you have been shown to slow rates of memory impairment.
Manage Common Health Conditions
Your brain health can be closely connected to your overall health, so staying on top of treatment for other conditions like high blood pressure, diabetes and depression can go a long way towards the prevention of cognitive decline.
