Medical statistics are alarming: strokes and Alzheimer’s disease are increasingly affecting people at a young age. But can these terrible diseases be prevented? Neurologist Anastasia Kolpina from the regional heart center told us what steps you should take to protect your brain.
The first and most important advice is to consult a cardiologist and neurologist. Professionals will help assess your risk and, if necessary, develop an individual treatment plan. Quitting bad habits such as secondhand smoke also plays a key role in prevention.
However, this is not the only important thing. Regular general massages, adequate treatment of chronic diseases such as diabetes or arrhythmia, and a healthy diet all help reduce the risk of stroke and dementia. And don’t forget about the motto “movement is life.” Physical activity plays a huge role in maintaining brain health.
And in your spare time, on the advice of Dr. Kolpina, be sure to train your brain. Learn new languages, engage in hobbies – all this will help keep your mind in good shape and protect it from negative influences.
