Brain Health and Aging
As we age, maintaining brain health becomes increasingly crucial to prevent cognitive decline and neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s. Aging affects the brain's structure and function, but lifestyle factors like diet, exercise, and mental stimulation can significantly impact cognitive longevity. Research into neuroplasticity and brain resilience is uncovering ways to promote healthy aging and delay the onset of neurological disorders.
