10 Ways to Love Your Brain

(StatePoint) June is Alzheimer’s and Brain Awareness Month, and a great time to learn more about how to reduce your risk of cognitive decline.

Alzheimer’s, a fatal disease that impairs one’s ability to remember, think and plan, affects 47 million individuals worldwide. While this number is set to rise dramatically, you can take steps to reduce your own risk, and experts say it’s never too late or too early to incorporate healthy habits into your daily routine.
