FOCUS ON COGNITIVE HEALTH: Now that Ohio has lifted its COVID-19 health orders, the Alzheimer’s Association suggests people focus on improving their cognitive health. Alzheimer’s is a progressive, fatal brain disease that kills nerve cells and tissues in the brain, affecting an individual’s ability to remember, think, plan, speak and walk. In the United States, more than 6 million people have the disease. There are 220,000 Ohioans living with the disease.
The Alzheimer’s Association — through its U.S. POINTER Study — is examining the role lifestyle interventions, including diet, may play in protecting cognitive function. Many experts agree that people can improve their brain health and reduce the risk of cognitive decline by adopting healthy lifestyle habits, including regular exercise, a heart-healthy diet, proper sleep, and staying socially and mentally active.
