Brain games reverse ageing - new study

- Thu, 27 Sep 2007


Brain training games can counteract seven to 14 years of anormal age-related deterioration in brain function, especially memory, according to a National Institute of Health study in the US.

"Everyone agrees that if you don't exercise your brain you're circling the drain," says Jack Kapica of the Canadian Globe and Mail. With the oldest baby boomers now turning 60, he says "[they] are being told their brains no longer operate the way they used to and they're getting worried."
 
In the same way that 20 years ago we woke up to the importance of physical exercise in staying vital and healthy, now a whole new opportunity exists for people concerned about their memory, to keep their mind fit at any age. The exercises at Headstrong Cognitive Fitness have been devised by a clinical neuropsychologist. Sharp Brains, which is regarded as the leading source of science-based information about brain-training programs, recently rated Headstrong as the most effective brain games on the market.
