Mature Brains are different

Written by Rick Maltin

Grown Up-Brains is top on my reading list - and I will review when done.

There is an excellent interview with Barbara Strauch in today's New York Times and the on the article blog has many good comments and additions. Barbara was also interviewed recently on NPR (Fresh Air - Terry Gross) - all very good stuff. And these discussions open some new doors about mature brains.  

Brain food, brain fitness and brain exercise are comming of age. It (brain health) has become a focus of Youthing Essentials - it's one of those myths that is changing (i.e. 'senior moments'). We seem to have accepted that our brains age negatively and the truth is more that our brain don't age but MATURE and brain power is applied differently.

Yes our brains do age like our bodies age but there are things we can do - if your interested see the Times and get involved. As a first easy step understand the links for exercise, diet, nutrition and attitude have on your brain fitness.
