Manage episode 416774678 series 3478386
If you’ve ever had a moment where you walked into a room and forgot why you were there, or you couldn’t find your car keys for the millionth time, or you just couldn’t quite remember that person’s name that you just met, then you know how frustrating it can be to feel like your brain is turning to mush.
And the reality is, you’re not alone. In fact, cognitive decline is a huge issue for many adults, and it only gets worse as we get older. It’s estimated that by the time we reach our mid-60s, one in every nine people will be diagnosed with some form of dementia, and by the time we reach our 80s, that number jumps to one in three.
But here’s the good news—it doesn’t have to be this way. There are actually some really simple steps you can take starting TODAY to improve your brain health and reduce your risk of cognitive decline in the future. And in this episode, I’m going to be breaking down exactly what those steps are.
