Only the physical body ages, not the Brain - Things that can help in having a Healthier and active Mind

  Aging is an inevitable phenomenon of life. Certainly, this process impacts the physical body and reduces the overall strength. Yet, growing older does not imply that your mental abilities will necessarily diminish making you completely dependent. But there may be age-related changes that can affect the brain. Nearly, fifteen percent of the global aged population suffers from some form of mental disorder. Besides, just as our muscles get flabby and lose flexibility due to inactivity, the brain gets duller when it is not stimulated.   Fortunately, there are a lot of approaches that can assist elders in keeping the mind sharp and alert despite getting older by the day. Regular physical activity, a nutritious diet and exercises for healthy mind can play a crucial role in regenerating the new connections between neurons to make the brain active. But most seniors may require some form of external assistance from family members or professional caregivers to maintain such routines. Athulya
