Lowering your risk of getting Alzheimer’s Disease involves taking steps to keep your brain and body healthy. Being active both mentally and physically is important. This means doing puzzles, reading, or learning new things to keep your mind sharp, and staying active with activities like walking or gardening to keep your body strong. Eating healthy foods like fruits, vegetables, and whole grains can also help keep your brain and body in good shape.
Keeping close relationships with friends and family is another way to lower your risk. Socializing and spending time with loved ones can keep your mind active and reduce stress. It’s also a good idea to talk to your doctor regularly and take any medications they prescribe. While these steps can’t guarantee that you won’t get Alzheimer’s Disease, they can help lower your risk and keep you healthier overall.
