I have to share this by Dr. Mercola. Many of you who know me know that I lost my wife of 50 years to Alzheimer's, and recently lost a brother-in-law to Alzheimer's also. I want to urge everyone reading this to please take care of your brain!
"Dementia and Alzheimer's have become so common that you may be unconsciously accepting these conditions as a natural part of aging, unfortunate family genes or both. The truth is, you can positively influence your brain. The actions suggested below will help ensure your mind remains sharp and resilient for many years to come. I encourage you to choose one of the suggestions and begin acting on it today. Making just one change can make a big difference in your brain health. Take care of your brain and it will take care of you." Even though your brain affects everything you do, you probably don't give it — literally — much thought. Clever pun aside, how often do you actually consider what your brain may need to stay healthy?
