Donald Jones DDS+FollowFoods That Could Protect Your BrainTurns out, your grocery list might help keep your mind sharp! A new study says eating foods rich in choline—think eggs (yolk!), chicken, broccoli, beans, and fish—could lower your risk of Alzheimer’s. Experts even say tossing salmon, walnuts, and blueberries into your salad is a brain-boosting win. If you’re skipping egg yolks, a choline supplement might be worth a shot. Who knew your next meal could be a memory-saver? #Health #BodyHealth #BrainHealth620Share
Edward Parrish+FollowCalf Muscles & Your Brain: Who Knew?Turns out, your calf muscles aren’t just for showing off at the gym—they might actually predict your risk of dementia! Studies say people with smaller calves could have poorer cognition, and boosting your calf size (think 31cm+) might help your brain. Strong calves mean better balance, fewer falls, and even healthier blood flow to your noggin. Want to level up? Try calf raises, heel drops, or even some jump rope at home. Who knew leg day could be brain day? #Health #BodyHealth #BrainHealth510Share
Ryan Lewis+FollowCut Your Dementia Risk—It’s Easier Than You Think!Did you know up to 45% of dementia cases could be prevented just by tweaking a few habits? Here’s the tea: 1) Cutting back on booze (even a little helps your brain!), 2) Eating more veggies, fish, and olive oil (hello, Mediterranean diet), and 3) Getting your hearing checked (seriously, it matters!). These aren’t huge life overhauls, but they could keep your mind sharp for years. Who knew staying social and skipping that extra hot dog could be brain-saving? #Health #BodyHealth #BrainHealth246Share
john24+FollowThis Supplement Could Save Your BrainDid you know bumping up your magnesium intake might actually keep your brain younger and lower your risk of dementia? A new study found people who got more than 550mg of magnesium daily had brains that looked a year younger than those who got less. But don’t go overboard—too much or too little magnesium can backfire. Best bet: load up on foods like pumpkin seeds, spinach, and almonds, or talk to your doc about the right supplement for you! #Health #BodyHealth #BrainHealth1415Share
Jacqueline Howard DDS+FollowDementia Isn’t Inevitable—Here’s How to Dodge ItTurns out, dementia isn’t just a normal part of getting older! Nearly half of cases could actually be avoided with a few lifestyle tweaks. Here’s the scoop: 1) Even moderate drinking can speed up brain aging, so cutting back is key. 2) Ditching processed meats and eating more veggies, fish, and olive oil (think Mediterranean diet) can seriously lower your risk. 3) Protect your hearing—hearing loss can lead to faster brain decline and social isolation. Who knew these simple changes could help keep your mind sharp? #Health #BodyHealth #BrainHealth525Share
Jacqueline Howard DDS+FollowYour Brain’s Age Might Predict Your FutureWild new study alert: Turns out, your brain’s real age (not just your birthday) could be the ultimate predictor of how long you’ll live and your risk for Alzheimer’s. People with ‘old’ brains are nearly 3x more likely to die early and way more likely to get Alzheimer’s, while those with ‘young’ brains have a 40% lower risk of early death. Blood tests might soon tell us how fast our brains are aging—future doctor visits could get real interesting! #Health #BodyHealth #BrainHealth90Share
Ryan Lewis+FollowThis MRI Can Predict Your Brain’s FutureImagine finding out how fast you’re really aging—way before you feel it. Scientists just dropped a tool that uses a single brain scan to predict your risk for dementia and other chronic illnesses YEARS before symptoms show up. The wild part? It works for everyone, no matter where you live or your background. Early heads-up means you could actually do something about it while you’re still healthy. Would you want to know your brain’s real age? #Health #BodyHealth #BrainHealth100Share
wilsonjames+FollowLow-Carb Diets & Dementia: The Surprising LinkCutting carbs might do more than slim your waistline—it could help protect your brain! New research suggests that eating fewer carbs may reduce the buildup of harmful proteins linked to Alzheimer’s. Apparently, too much sugar in the brain can make these proteins clump up, leading to dementia symptoms. By dialing back on bread, pasta, and rice, you might actually boost your brain’s defenses. Wild, right? Would you try keto for your mind? #BrainHealth #DementiaPrevention #LowCarb #Health #BodyHealth162Share
Jacqueline Howard DDS+FollowCould an ‘Exercise Pill’ Be Next?Scientists just found the brain cells that get the biggest boost from exercise—and it could mean a future ‘exercise pill’ for Alzheimer’s patients! By mapping how exercise affects memory-related brain cells, researchers discovered key genes that could be targeted by new drugs. Imagine getting some of the brain benefits of a workout without hitting the gym. This could be a total game-changer for Alzheimer’s therapies! #Alzheimers #BrainHealth #ScienceNews #Health #BodyHealth50Share
Lisa Ramirez+FollowCBD Might Be a Game-Changer for ConcussionsJust read a wild study: high-dose CBD could actually help protect your brain after repeated concussions! Researchers found that rats given more CBD had less brain stress and cell death after multiple head injuries. Basically, CBD seems to calm down the brain’s stress response and boost cell survival. It’s early days (and tested on rats), but if you know anyone into contact sports, this could be huge news for brain health! #CBD #BrainHealth #ConcussionRecovery #Health #BodyHealth51Share
