Q. How can I slow down brain aging so I live longer?

A. Develop and maintain a Longevity Lifestyle. It is no guarantee because accidents do happen. However, in my brain’s opinion, it’s the best option. Research has discovered several strategies for staying healthier and younger for longer. Fourteen of those strategies are outlined in the Longevity Lifestyle Matters (LLM Online) program available at Taylor’s website. For example:

• Make water your beverage of choice and stay hydrated. Dehydration has been linked with dementia.
• Give your brain the sleep it needs. Sleep is independently linked with longevity.
• Get a minimum of 30 minutes of challenging mental exercise every day and read aloud for 10 minutes every day.
• Get regular physical exercise as the brain has no muscles and depends on muscle activity in the body to bring nutrients to the brain and remove toxins and waste.
