It sounds like an infomercial from late-night TV: Follow this four-step plan and improve your memory in just 14 days!
But researchers have indeed found a way to improve memory function in older people.
After a two-week study that involved brainteasers, exercise and diet changes, study participants' memories worked more efficiently.
Here's the program:
Memory Training: Brainteasers, crossword puzzles and memory exercises that emphasized verbal skills throughout the day.
Healthy Diet: Five meals daily included a balanced diet rich in omega-3 fats, whole grains and antioxidants. Eating frequent meals prevents dips in blood glucose, the primary energy source for the brain.
Physical Fitness: Brisk daily walks and stretching. Physical fitness has been found in other research to reduce the risk of Alzheimer's disease.
Stress Reduction: Stretching and relaxation exercises. Stress causes the body to release cortisol, which can impair memory and has been found to shrink the memory centers in the brain.
The best way to improve your memory is trust yourself .
If you think you can,you can!
but it will never be effect in 14 days!
Rome was not built in one day!
