Your brain is your most complex organ and it’s also the one most vulnerable to everyday stressors.
Stress, emotions, exposure to environmental factors, diet and lack of specific nutrients can all take a toll on your brain every day of your life.
All these stressors can impact your brain’s functioning. And when that happens, most people brush it off as “just growing older”.
Indeed, your cognitive function – which includes your ability to think, focus, concentrate and remember names and other important facts – can naturally begin to decline around the age of 40.
Some aspects of normal age-related cognitive decline can even begin in healthy young adults in their 20s and 30s.
But you needn’t accept these changes as “normal” as you grow older
Researchers today tell us a decline in brain function is not necessarily an inevitable part of growing older. Rather, there’s much you can do to help promote optimal brain function as you age.*
