As a person ages, his brain health is damaged, and this is what leads to the emergence of Alzheimer’s in a large number of elderly people, but it is possible through several tips to keep the brain as strong as possible and not exposed to diseases of aging quickly.
According to the British health site “Wayne Woman Inspire”, the following 5 tips will help maintain a healthy brain.
Reliance on a healthy diet
A healthy diet has many benefits for the body, including that it directly affects the health of the brain, and among the best foods that should be in the diet is fish, and whole grains such as rice, wheat and plant foods.
Maintain mental activity
The mind is like a muscle that needs to be exercised regularly in order to function better, and the best way to activate it is to play puzzles, chess, solve crossword puzzles, and any game that needs thinking and deepening in reaching its solution.
Maintain social activity
Introvertedness does not help the mind at all, but rather destroys it over time, making it vulnerable to diseases and ready to be affected by diseases of aging, and therefore social activity that reduces anxiety and depression and helps to strengthen memory, and avoid cognitive decline, which is linked to aging and its signs, must be forgotten of names and places.
Maintain sleep quality
Sleeping well every day helps to strengthen the entire body, especially the mind, which becomes active when maintaining daily sleep hours, which should not be less than 6 hours, and increasing them with strenuous physical exertion.
And if you wake up several times during the night, this is considered interrupted sleep and thus the quality of sleep decreases, and the mind does not get its benefits, but rather it will be negatively affected and weak.
Maintain physical activity
Physical activity is a fourth way to preserve the mind, and this is what many studies have shown on those who engage in regular physical activity, and their exposure to cognitive decline and aging diseases, as physical activity helps blood flow to the mind better.
Physical activity has a second benefit, which is maintaining body weight, improving cardiovascular performance, and gaining muscle.
