Research shows there are three areas to consider when you plan to maintain and improve the health of your brain: your mind, your body, and your spirit.
What Can You Do
You can easily add brain health activities to your daily routine. Physical activity, healthy eating, meditation, reading, playing games, and trying to memorize phone numbers can all help.
