MAINTAIN YOUR BRAIN-ALZHEIMER'S ASSOCIATION

Take brain health to heart:    Heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes and stroke can increase your risk of Alzheimer's.

Your numbers count:    Keep your body weight, cholesterol, and blood sugar levels within recommended ranges.

Feed your brain:    Eat a low-fat, low-cholesterol diet that includes dark-skinned vegetables and fruits, as well as foods rich in antioxidants, vitamins E, C, and B-2, folate, and omega-3 fatty acids.

Work your body:    Physical exercise keeps the blood flowing and encourages new brain cells.  It does not have to be a strenuous activity.  Do what you can-such as walking 30 minutes a day-to keep both body and mind active.

Jog your mind:    Read, write, play games, do crossword puzzles.  Keeping your brain active and engaged increases its vitality and builds reserves of brain cells and connections.

Connect with others:    Be social, converse, volunteer, join.  A recent study reported that leisure activities that combine physical, mental, and social activity may help to prevent dementia.

Heads up! Protect your brain:    Take precautions against injuries.  Use car seat belts, reduce clutter in your house to avoid falls and wear a helmet when cycling.

Use your head-Avoid unhealthy habits.    Don't smoke, drink excessive alcohol or use illegal drugs.
