Preventing Cognitive Decline and Dementia: A Way Forward

In a 2017 report, a committee of the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine evaluated the most rigorous, up-to-date research on how to prevent cognitive decline and dementia, as well as recommended ways to conduct future prevention research. This video, featuring several members of the committee, highlights the report's conclusions and recommendations.

Sudoku is good for exercising your brains. Same with using the Internet, but not as much.

This is an educational video - why the music? It's too loud, and it's annoying! I have hearing issues, and this music is very disturbing - stop with all the noise!

I wish they elaborated on what cognitive training is. all they said is what it is not....

It is not accurate to say that nerve cells cannot be regenerated. There are preclinical research studies performed in mice showing the unique cannabinoid CBD promoted neurogenesis or the formation of new brain cells in adult mice. Other interventions, including exercise and brain games may promote neurogenesis and neural net connections.

I love (d) my husband, but he has Alzheimer's, now, and l have lost my husband- wife love. I love him like a "memory of our love
It is hard on us both, mostly me.

I would like to know how to get into one of these studies as a patient

Honestly, if this is directed at people with cognitive problems, it would be impossible for most of them to follow all the blah-blah... Way too long for people having cognitive issues, they will get lost. So, up to a point, this is pointless unless they do something to the POINT faster!
