The age at which the brain begins to age. Note these symptoms

by Walter Lewis

Is it possible to stop aging?
Chronological aging is universal to all. However, there are individual differences in the biological process. As a result, it is possible to slow down this process.

Certain lifestyle changes can play a protective role in age-related cognitive decline. These include exercise, energy restriction and taking antioxidants.

It used to be thought that having a college degree and working as a scientist could shift the onset of dementia. That turned out not to be the case. It only makes it harder to diagnose the early stages. That is, it delays the time to start treatment.

Today, simple and accessible activities are known that can slow down cognitive impairment. They include counting in the mind, collecting puzzles and fine motor skills (embroidery, weaving), dancing, solving logic problems, crossword puzzles like Sudoku.

When there is a suspicion of any cognitive disorder, it is not recommended to self-medicate. It is important to contact a specialist – a neurologist, geriatrician (a doctor who deals with the treatment and prevention of diseases in old age) or a psychiatrist.

Timely initiation of therapy can provide a few extra years of independence and preservation of the personality of a patient with cognitive impairment.
