A recent study published in the journal Alzheimers & Dementia reveals that a specific type of brain training can significantly lower the risk of dementia, including Alzheimers disease. Over a 20-year period, researchers found that older adults who engaged in 14 to 22 hours of targeted brain exercises experienced a 25% reduction in their risk of being diagnosed with these debilitating conditions. Doctor Michael Alosco from Boston Medical Center’s neurology department emphasized the importance of these findings during an interview on Boston 25 News Now.
