More on Alzheimer's...

We came across an interesting article on Yahoo News about a study focused on so called “Super
Agers” and what makes them different. A “Super Ager” is a person who is in their 80s and 90s, but with brains and memories that seem far younger. One interesting find in the study suggests that people who are “cognitively active and socially engaged” have a reduced chance of developing Alzheimer’s disease. Which comes first — a healthy brain or a great attitude — isn’t known. However, it’s worthy of note that staying active as we age is a repeating theme in reducing the chances of developing Alzheimer’s.

 The article is interesting in it’s observations and discoveries, and can be read in it's entirety by clicking here!
