Episode Details

Engaging in a variety of mental activities throughout life, from childhood to retirement, can build cognitive reserve and lower the risk of Alzheimers and cognitive decline. This reserve, even present in brains showing Alzheimers signs, allows the brain to function better and work around damage for longer. Its never too late to start, with options like learning new skills, engaging in hobbies, and maintaining heart-healthy habits. Ongoing research explores additional benefits, but these steps can slow deterioration and potentially lower dementia risk.
